    It’s definitely showing that most people aren’t willing to be inconvenienced even if it’s to help themselves. I’m not sure a scenario exists where going back to reddit is a good idea. They are going public and that’s not gonna change. Being a public company means they are going to chase the money and if they don’t today they will burn down the platform to make more money later.

      Reddit really should be taking notes from Twitter, although in all honesty they probably are, but in ways for how to make money and screw over the people rather than caring for the people. Every day there’s something new being monetized on Twitter. Pretty soon you’ll have to be a Twitter Blue subscriber if you want to DM more than one person. I can already see Reddit going down the same route even just mere months from now.

        but in ways for how to make money

        What money? Twitter is nickel-and-diming everybody like a miser, after the ad renevue crumbled because of the toxic changes in conduct rules for users.

          They’re getting evicted from all of their offices because they aren’t paying rent, starting with the one in Colorado.
