Well I’m not leaving here, only deciding how much time to also spend there. I don’t want to abandon the community and I also wanted to help people realize that there are other alternatives i.e. here. Reddit is going to continue to get worse for sure. Also, I did not want to just leave Someweirdo237 bearing the major burden of modding, and while TomAto314 helpfully stepped up, I did want to check in to make sure they are doing okay even over the next month during my embargo (so I’ll do that on weekends while avoiding Reddit during the week to deprive it of >99% of my personal traffic).

I just cannot stand Reddit’s CEO’s extremely disrespectful attitude towards customers and especially the volunteers who put forth enormous efforts to create, grow, curate, and otherwise lovingly watch over the communities that they “owned” - who he now just shoved aside and more or less took over, after explicitly promising that he would never do such a thing (the ToS states that the communities belong to those who made them and they are free to do as they please, until that power-mad abuser decided to reneg promises and do otherwise). I can’t reward that, and ofc no longer trust anything he says b/c he has revealed that he will do whatever he wants and that also is not okay.

Also, Reddit can be somewhat toxic - but that only happens half of the time whenever you make either posts or comments:-) (/s b/c what else is there to do except read?:-). On the other hand, I could block people now:-).

So I may be 99% here and 1% there after that?
