i have been working through the stages of grief over my dear, departed friend reddit. many years we spent together. it has been clear though, that the reddit governance committees that now exist in the corporate ether have different priorities than those priorities that governed its creation.

to that, i have watched for several years the decline of reddit as compared to its initial goals. it has stopped me from logging in. it forced me to use redirectors to prevent me seeing nonsense that is the new main page. so many terrible decisions.

so, i have come to acceptance. thank you, Spez for killing reddit, for me. It may exist is some form or another, but ya know, so does AOL. have fun with that.

thanks to you, Steve Huffman, i found Kbin. i found a renewed interest in community and participating in it. i have a renewed interest in the complex software stack required for reddit replacement systems. reddits ashes will be fun to build on.

i feel we are restoring reddits original purpose through the fediverse.

The sun always shines brighter on the day you leave an abusive partner. Welcome to what the internet was like before centralization - a playground of imagination, unfettered thought, and unbridled creativity. Congratulations on becoming part of the renaissance that is the Fediverse and breaking free from the stench of the Spezticle.
