I mean don’t get me wrong, its cool a lot of subs have and still are participating in the blackout, but I think it wouldve been better to link a new home for the subreddits participating somewhere in the private message. Show spez, hey if you dont change, we aren’t going to use your site (or use it less).

    I think folks are really holding out hope for a 180 from Reddit leadership and I get that, I’ve been on Reddit long enough that I have a relationship and an emotional attachment to the platform.

    But there is no sign of a 180 and maybe the worlds better for that as we can create something new.

      Same. I have been on reddit since a long time before they closed the source (i’d guess, close to 15 years?). I kind of miss it. It was part of my life every single day for so long, and then spaz had to go and fuck everything up. Ugh. Anyway, kbin is better already. so fuck spaz.

      There was a moment in the first Digg revolt where the digg admins were like we hear you, go ahead, post the AAC encryption key. We’ll go into the future together. It hit like crack and we want to see it again, especially since spez and Alexis were cheering that shit on at the time
