    I really don’t understand how people can still use reddit with a clean conscience especially after their treatment to Christian and other 3rd party developers. They’ve made it clear with their words and actions that they don’t give a fuck about their users, so how can a respectful person still choose to stay? It was a lost cause since the beginning, the protests were never going to work. I appreciate the ones who’ve decided to abandon the ship and join us here.

      People are desensitized.

      Most services or products have some toe dipped in shady shit, so people have been forced to learn to reconcile with participating more or less in a least some unethical bullshit, just to have a normal life.

      Want to have a t-shirt? Probably just supported slave labour.

      Want to talk to a friend? Probably just sold you digital soul to a megacorp, and at least two foreign powers.

        Absolutely true, when i saw that there are even people defending Reddit i just had to get rid of it.

        I want to distance myself from this shit or my blood will boil over.

        Cheers to a new home with people doing something against these megacorp practices these days.

      They could really do with better explanation of the federated servers before people sign up. I did do a little research before I knew which instance to use

        You know what? I think it’s good if it’s not that accessible. The internet has turned to shit because every fucking idiot with a phone has such easy access to it. It’s good if people have to think for a minute before being able to participate. It’s not difficult, but it might cull the toxic bullshit people a bit.
