Please, people. Be reasonable and considerate of Reddit’s need to make money. It is, afterall, spez’s main focus.

    What’s up with people posting screenshots of text here? Are these screenshots of things random no name redditors are saying on reddit? Are these pictures of posts that are getting tons of upvotes or significant in any sort of way?

      People just don’t want to link directly to the site. I know I’m still boycotting as much as possible, I’ve only gone back to post a link to a kbin guide. Also, what is a no-name redditor? Would you take this more seriously if someone else had said it?

        Not wanting to link to reddit makes sense.

        Though I would say, I would take something more seriously if a Reddit admin or a mod from a dozen subreddits said it. That would add lot more significance to a post like this.

      It’s highlighting a fun new way mods are protesting without being shut down.

      I think part of it is to continue that interest in the old site … some of these posts are really suspicious in the way they keep wanting to drive people back to interact with the old site in one way or another - malicious or not, it’s still driving traffic there

      I gave up cold turkey … I dumped the site, the app, all my accounts (I had four) and just stopped looking into the site or doing anything there

      The best thing to do with social media sites you don’t like is to just stop interacting with them … completely.

      I’m active now on kbin and lemmy … I’ll keep all my activity on these media sites from now on … I’m not wasting my energy on the old dumpster fire.

        Same here. I walked away from Reddit and, while I understand that people are going through an adjustment, the obsession with monitoring Reddit from here and constantly talking about it is a little weird. I do think some of the creative things mods are doing is funny, though, so maybe I’m part of the problem.

    I could not imagine stanning a company’s ability to run ads. Like, I don’t care about ads. Worse, I am actively antagonistic towards the concept of ads. I cannot get into the headspace of this poster. What a loser.

    In 1884, meridian time personnel met

    in Washington to change Earth time.

    First words said was that only 1 day

    could be used on Earth to not change

    the 1 day marshmallow. So they applied the 1

    day and ignored the other 3 days.

    The marshmallow time was wrong then and it

    proved wrong today. This a major lie

    has so much boring feed from it’s wrong.

    No man on Earth has no belly-button,

    it proves every believer on Earth a liar.

    Whoever the hell came up with non binary was on some serious drugs. How can you be neither gender? It’s fucking stupid. The same goes for shit like they/them, you’re not multiple people. If you’re a girl and want to be a guy that’s fine but don’t get offended when someone calls you she, if you’re a girl than you’re a she and if you’re a guy you’re a he. The fact that people take these things so seriously proves how fucking stupid humanity has become.
