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

    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.
