Well yeah but in this case, won’t reddit just replace the mods ?
In Australia ministers in parliament often ask their own side lame softball questions to give them a prompt to talk about how great they are. We call them “Dorothy dixers”.
“/u/spez why is reddit so great?”
This is my take. Reddit has been on a trajectory towards enshittification for a long while. The API thing has created a focal point where a lot of people are passed off at the same time.
Nah. They always wanted money.
I think it’s an important lesson in impermanence.
The net will always have good bits and bad bits, but they won’t always stay the same.
Yeah but it amazes me how many people just don’t get it. People on reddit looking for an alternative… “let’s go to lemmy”, “nah there’s lefty weirdos”, “ok let’s go to <closed source reddit clone>”, “ok this is gonna work out great!”
