Same exact situation here. Been on reddit since digg v4 happened. Reddit was far from perfect, but for the most part I enjoyed my time there. If this is the end of reddit, then so be it. Lemmy/Beehaw looks like it can grow into a good replacement.
Looks like /r/sc is going dark until reddit admins back down, which after today looks like never.
Today's AMA was something else. I honestly don't know how a founder of reddit doesn't understand reddit users.
I really like/liked reddit. I've been on it since digg v4 happened. Rif dies, I'm done using reddit on my phone. I'm not installing their app. If old dies, then I'm completely done with reddit. I'm not using new. Chances are I'll use reddit less and less anyway though.
They need to. This AMA is just telling people that reddit is following through with their changes and telling people to deal with it.
He's selling and he's going to point his investors to his AMA comments.
Wow. Spez is doubling down on attacking the Apollo dev. You'd think spez was new to reddit with the way he's commenting.
I'm with you on that last paragraph. I've dropped all my streaming apps for YouTube and Twitch at this point. I just genuinely like the feel of smaller YouTubers. I follow some that have millions of subscribers, but the ones I enjoy the most are small time creators. One of my favorites has a few thousand subscribers right now, and I get excited every time they upload a new video.
