I was just browsing a thread on c/nfl looking for new mods. There were multiple 12+ year Redditors there offering to help.
Got me wondering. There are 14,000 of us in this community. How many of us are ten year plus users who have just had enough?
Edit: I didn’t expect this post to be as poignant as it became. There are so many of you… I can’t reply to everyone. I’m an 11 year user and have modded something like 150 subs over the years. I’m really sad too, but I’m finding that lemmy has most of the content I’m looking for, just needs more comments.
The API was a big blow, but removing awards on past posts and deleting coin balances is really dumb.
Yeah, I was never a fan of Scrubs, but several years into the show I heard Lazlo Bane’s “Superman” in the show titles and I was like… huh, they got that from MP3.com? Turns out Zach Braff was friends with the band members.
I still have lots of MP3.com stuff in my music archive, including folks who never made the transition to Youtube and pretty much don’t exist on the Internet at all anymore.
