    The sad thing is that even with all these scandals, MAU/DAU growth in the threadiverse is flat.

        I was screenshots of people basically being mental or entitled on twitter. You’re classic “white Karen” etc. stereotype. There was or is a black twitter too…wonder if that’s banned. That’s definitely more racist.

      Of course it is, especially in this new era of censorship and restricted speech, brought to you by a self claimed free speech absolutist.

      From my point of view, it seems like the only solution is to move away from corporate social media, and to federated foss platforms that are much harder to stifle on a global stage.

      It’ll be interesting to see if the world will shift in response to continued encroachment on liberty, or if we just continue to take it.

      The whole internet is collectively getting worse tbh. Independent sites demand a resurgence.

    I know we are all here because of our distaste of Reddit.

    HOWEVER in a capitalist system the only thing to speak volumes is the people who speak up.

    If there is a way for us to email or blast the admins of Reddit then we should. Not for Reddit but to start a backlash. If we stay silent then nothing changes.

    I bed of you all to actually report false information. There has been no law broken. There has been no laws passed only executive orders thus far.

    I’m not asking for the sake of Reddit. I’m asking for the sake of everything else.

    When you find things like this, take 5 minutes, that’s it. Research the company find the place to complain and do it.

      The only thing that speaks in capitalism is money. Want to hurt reddit? Leave. Reddit makes money with your data, stop giving it to those asshats. Your emails will be ignored until you start talking in the way that can hurt them.

        I clearly failed to make my point. This isn’t about Reddit. It’s about a company folding based on bullshit. A law has to go through Congress and be signed by the president before it becomes law. An executive order is not a law. And only elected person like mosque, saying something is not law.

        If we let companies fold here about absolute nothing then it’s just the peak. Everything else fails after that.

        Edit: Actually, no I didn’t fail to make my point you’re just ignoring it. I said multiple times is not about Reddit.

          I didn’t ignore your point, I countered it. The only way to make a company that’s driven by money to listen to you is to hurt their floating line.

          Reddit (and most if not all big techs) is only worried about one opinion: the conservative opinion. And since we are complaining about them folding to nazis, do you think they will listen? But sure, write an email, spam them with email about how being a nazi is bad.

          Subs are banning links from xitter and what’s doing reddit? Closing subs because poor elmo got his ego hurt. I’m sure a strong worded email will make them listen.
