The protests worked, and so did moving/editing/deleting our old content. As one person complains,
I’m not here for Reddit, but for the aggregation of niche communities. I follow a lot of obscure manga that have relatively small followings and recently I got into an IT job which opened a lot of technological exploration for me. The worst part about this change isn’t even that we are losing 3rd party apps, but that only members of the communities I frequent are the ones who care enough to protest. Can’t tell you how many times now I’ve looked something up on Reddit and find an answer to the issue I have, only to realize that the community is closed or the post is deleted in protest. Now we are stuck in this limbo where protests seem to have lost their steam, niche communities are being overthrown and killed because of that greedy little pigboy. Seriously, fuck spez.
Lol u mad
the anger tells us it worked o7
nah i’m good bro, reddit is better off without you loud entitled disobedient douche bags lmfao
So go on reddit, enjoy, live your life to the fullest bro
I like this. To anybody insulting us here we tell them they can stay on Reddit, and we’re correct lol
But you’re here…
i can be on reddit and here, this place isn’t yours either lmfao
The issue with commenters like this is it is hard to tell who is real and who is an astroturfer.
We recently had a reveal of one. See https://kbin.social/m/RedditMigration/t/92172/Why-Reddit-and-u-spez-must-win and the followup at https://kbin.social/m/RedditMigration/t/121064/You-are-winning
Disobedient? Pray tell who were we supposed to be obeying?
Poor fool exposed themselves as another cog in the Reddit machine with that one.
For real, that part made me do a double take. It’s crazy to think some redditors are so far gone that they would frame it that way.
that is a beautiful example of projection.
