This seems unhealthy and obsessive at this stage… I’ve been on Reddit for more than 15 years (don’t even remember exactly, my account was 15 years old but I lurked without logging in for a long while before that) so I understand letting go can be hard, but I think it’s just better for your mental health to do so. Don’t ragebait yourself, don’t expect that any protest will work - it will not, and reddit will only show potential investors massive engagement numbers when they propose to infest r/place with ads.
Just give up - that fight is lost, and we can now have our fun here. We couldn’t save Digg before, and we can’t save reddit now. I have moved on and it was actually easier than expected. I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone - just don’t engage with reddit and talk to us here!
How difficult is this to understand? Stop engaging with Reddit if you have a problem with Reddit. Everyone one of if you that goes there, or creates bots, generate clicks and activity. This is the best outcome Reddit could hope for, is a bunch of morons going back to keep the site more active.
Either protest by doing nothing, or be a Reddit and fucking own it.
Are you saying no protest has ever worked to affect change?
That’s obviously not what @bassturd is saying. What a ridiculous take. Protests don’t usually generate revenue for the thing they’re protesting. This is like protesting starbucks by buying starbucks coffee everyday but making them write “starbucks sucks” on your cup.
GOSH
Is that RIF?
It’s definitely not the Reddit app, just look at how ad-free and well organized the ui is! It does look like rif though
Why are they still there if they are so angry? What I noticed is that people would be ranting on reddit in places like ModCoord or whatever but then be contributing with on topic content in other subreddits like normal. So why are they so mad when they are fine with using reddit normally and are still able to? Seems like so many contradictions of calling for boycotts but then not doing any boycotting when it comes to their favorite subreddits.
That’s why Spez won. He’s smart enough to use their rage to increase their engagement on Reddit by having them obsess over one place, since their actual daily activity on other subreddits is normal.
