I don’t understand this community’s obsession with this man. If you’re no longer on his site then why do you care what happens to him or Reddit? Just move on.
I think it’s like, when you have a horrible breakup and you keep wanting to hear about the horrible things happening in your ex’s life that justifies you leaving them and/or gives you some sweet schadenfreude.
Because I used reddit for well over a decade and had hundreds of subs I followed. Friends and communities. Years and years of shared history. It has been a huge part of my life. And this turd is ruining it for everybody, and by everybody I mean millions og people. I’m not obsessed with the guy, but I am interested to know what is going on with the place I spent so many hundreds of hours on. Don’t get me wrong, I glad I found lemmy. It’s a great community, but it’s far from what we left behind. In time we’ll hopefully get there, but in the meantime for sure fuck that piece of shit spez.
My thoughts exactly. Reddit was an immensely widespread and unique collection of so many vibrant niche communities that has grown over nearly two decades and was wilfully destroyed in mere weeks.
I can’t blame anyone who mourns the loss and resents the greedy pigfucker that killed it.
I was there for over ten years and never made any friends. I must have been doing something wrong lol
It’s okay friend. You’re here, you can start now 👋
Not only did I not make any friends there, I went to great lengths to ensure my existing friends didn’t know my username.
I like to watch train wrecks, but I don’t want to be in a train wreck.
Are you sure? Have you ever been in a train wreck before? Maybe it’s fun!
Update: I just googled “train wrecks” and, while it doesn’t look fun, who really knows for sure?
I did a study about that once. The only conclusion I could really make is that people involved in train wrecks don’t like participating in post experiment questionnaires. Though on the bright side, their refusal to answer the questionnaire meant we could sue their families for the cost of the train because being in train wrecks is also apparently associated with not reading contracts.
Science is hard.
People sunk ungodly amounts of time into reddit.
Because if I heard that something violent and horrible happened to him, it would make me smile.
