Reddit nukes everyone’s pre-2023 chats and messages::Shooting itself in the foot again
Spez get in trouble for sending unsolicited dick pics and needs to drop some tables again?
People are so fucking dumb that they will still be using reddit. The value is in the content they generate which people do not understand. With all the changes r/spez made , anyone with some brain would leave the platform and let the website crash and burn but people are so dumb that they will make r/spez a billionaire and then complain about it.
I just don’t understand what the top brass at Reddit are hoping to achieve with these changes.
I mean, they’re universally hated. What’s the goal here?
They aren’t universally hated. No one likes them, sure, but as with a lot of things the silent majority is in the “doesn’t give a fuck” camp. This is the camp Reddit is relying on to keep using the website no matter what they do.
Now as for why, beats me.
My guess is that spez and co are hoping they’ve hit a critical mass of FB level users (your mum, your boss, that wacky aunt, the bus driver, etc) that after they fucked everything and the exodus happens, there will be enough people around who dont care cos “lol cats funny”.
There’s nothing about it on the top two pages of Reddit so either people don’t care or let’s get out our tinfoil hats and make this make sense.
You would be surprised about what content reddit curates and keeps from getting amplified.
Do you guys remember when you’d be banned from Facebook for posting the NY Post article about Hunter’s laptop? Or the the NY Post Twitter account was banned?
It’s all to serve a narrative, all the time, forever.
How many times did you hear “He crossed state lines!” As if that was a crime, or something?
It’s all fake bullshit
Hunter’s laptop is the fake bullshit.
I am sick of reddit, I have just deleted my account(s).
I haven’t because unfortunately some content is still there and some communities haven’t left, but the rest of the time is Lemmy. That and I don’t think I am capable of actually deleting it there is too much stuff there that although I have backed up I would feel bad that would dissapear by my own hand.
lucky for me that completely banned me. everytime i tried to create a new account, they shadow banned me. So now its not as exciting as it was before and now after their latest changes, I dont even care anymore
