I hope Reddit dies! Free Luigi!
oh, it won't.. it'll turn into a weird cross between thedonald and 9gag in a few months. mark my words.
Dude something very weird is going on on Reddit. I’ve been through it with them for 12 years and this is like nothing I’ve ever seen.
I finally deleted the terrible Reddit app when my feed was blasted with repeated comments that “Reddit is far left and the left are domestic terrorists.” Sorry what?
These very weird not based in reality comments are posted almost verbatim in every thread. These people usually never respond to conversation.
It’s very very weird
I think your prediction is probably spot on. Reddit already feels like incel 9gag with a bunch of Russians pretending to be American college students.
Edit: oh if that’s your optimistic take then oh wow haha I am staying here on Lemmy I’ll start posting too
I noticed the bots picked way way up after many sub reddits banned links to a certain platform. I think some of the bots are his but not all It's a bots farm free for all. And I expect the right to take it over like they did x.
that's my optimistic projection, i don't see it going any better anyotherwise.
please stay. we need your doots. this is freedom from reddit.
This is exactly what I expect to happen. With a little x mixed in.
thedonaldgag?
oh jeez.. someone please grab that domain before they get any ideas..
i know this may sound counterintuitive, but just look at they way they changed their minds about electric cars.
Gagdonald?
Be careful, .world mods are likely to bad you for calling for action
But that's not a call to action. Or is that the joke? Lol
You cannot wish for anything to die on .world, especially if it is a person or a corporate-person. The “centrist” .world mods look down on anything that makes capitalism or republicans look bad.
The instance operators are just trying not to get legally accountable for it? Call for murder is prosecutable in many countries. Also in the Netherlands where that instance is located.
Wait, but which .world mods? I'm technically also one of those and I don't think that way. lol
Mostly news, world, and politics. In that order. But, it has been a lot better since the FlyingAsshat got his pink slip.
Ohh I can see that with World News mods. Yep, can attest some of them are dipshits. That's why I have them blocked and their sub too.
