Time to fire up the protests again and shut down major subreddits again.

[–] FenrirIII@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

They don't care. Reddit does not give a shit about its users.

I give it 2 months before they axe or further cripple old.reddit prior to IPO, should give Lemmy another wave of new users.

If I were them I would definitely keep it up at least until the IPO so they can still count that traffic.

[–] balancedchaos@lemmy.world 22 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Oh, not a good time to do that. I wonder if something forced their hand to do an IPO during an economic downturn.

Yeah, spez wants to get paid before the whole thing comes crashing down.

Im sure content will just exponentially increase in quality once the only thing that is important is "stonks go up".

A certain Steve miller band song comes to mind.

I think this is a great time for remaining Reddit users to do a 3 month Reddit detox.

Puts on that IPO.
