"Wait, wait, hear me out. Carbon. Fiber."

I deleted my Reddit account right after I noticed Apollo stopped working. Mastodon and Kbin are filling the void nicely and I find I don't miss Reddit at all.

They're already on Insta, so they're really not giving up anything extra

Some subreddits require a certain level of karma to be able to post or reply to comments. I don't know if that was to help against bots or people who would make an account to avoid a ban or something. Other than that karma was just an ego boost for those who cared about such things.

I have over 13k. My bot is keeping my comment list at 15 max and I'm not posting content. Been trying out kbin instead.
I'm hanging around until the end of June, but once Apollo is dark, I'm gone.

I think you're going to begin to see a lot of that on Reddit. I overwrote and delete my ~10 years of comments and posts before deleting my account. I imagine a significant number of others have/will too.

There's definitely room for improvement, but I like what I see so far and don't have a problem learning a new paradigm. I'm sure that as the platform matures things will become more consistent.

It's just beginning!

It stopped about 2200 US eastern time for me...at least that's when I noticed it. I uninstalled and then deleted my Reddit account. I'm all in on the fediverse!

Is it just me, or is that pic creepy AF?

Most of us are new here. It's like the great Digg migration years back!

Learning a new platform is fun, and I can't wait to see this take off as Reddit becomes a shell of it's former self.

I just deleted all three of my Reddit accounts. I hope a lot of others do the same!

Same here. Once Apollo stopped working, I deleted my 5 year, 14k karma account. Fuck Reddit and fuck u/spez.

At first I did feel that way. But as my engagement with reddit went down it felt like my life improved.

I'm not sure if you're old enough to remember Digg, but they also alienated their users which caused users to migrate to Reddit.

No need for the pinch of salt. None of the recorded conversations after the assault mention ISIS, but they all mentioned "the Yanks." Wagner expected or were given the impression that the US troops would withdraw.

It also works on all sites, which is why FF is no longer my daily driver.

Getting rid of old reddit is a given at this point.

And since u/spez is following the Elon business model, I would imagine locking content behind a paywall is next.
