I barely use reddit anymore save for porn and niche subs but after that glorious app I had used for ages finally died a few days ago I felt devastated. it was like losing an old friend. I hope reddit dies an even slower and more painful death

I mostly left because I saw an abundance of bootlicking posts and comments, people dunking on mods for continuing the protest and saying that it doesn’t concern them cause they don’t use third-party apps. Granted, some of them might’ve been bots or payed, but a lot of frustration seemed genuine and fron real accounts, and it rubbed me the wrong way.
I really don’t get it. I also used official app for years now and now I’m here and reddit is becoming a memory because how they treated it.
Same. I hadn’t used a 3rd party reddit app in years, and I slowly watched as my reddit experience got worse and worse, but when they mishandled the whole situation it made me wonder why I’m sticking around.
Same. The app was shit, but I didn’t want to bother with finding something else. I supported the protest but it was not enough for me to leave - their reaponse though, the strongarming of the mods and all the shitshow around me just made me snap. I was aware reddit is going down a bad path, but I was a frog being boiled. This made me realize it and thank god for that one guy on r/lotrmemes mentioning Lemmy as an alternative.
I haven’t been to Reddit since mid June, wondering what portion of the posts you saw complaining about protests and the blackouts were real and what portion were made by bots / ai / etc? 🤔
