Looks like some of us need to get active on Reddit again to correct this.

God damn, the replies in that thread are toxic af.

I’d love to see you all stay on kbin - it’s less engagement for now, but it’s at least more civil. That being said, y’all do what you think is right. Just keep in mind that this protest is just the dead canary in the coal mine for reddit.

I’d love it if we could filter out products that are truly BIFL, i.e. products that are solid for 10+ years rather than ones that are great for a year or two. If I’m buying for longevity then I don’t want to get something that’ll break or degrade in a short amount of time.

I’d love to see BIFL here.
