There’s a lot of noise with this one. Among the noisiest we’ve seen. Please know that our teams are on it, and like all blowups on Reddit, this one will pass as well. The most important things we can do right now are stay focused, adapt to challenges, and keep moving forward. We absolutely must ship what we said we would.

This was a few days back, but I think it’s important to bring up for the moment. This is just completely convincing me that those running Reddit are entirely out of touch with their moderators and the well-being of their users. Does this make you want to leave or just rub you the wrong way? Have you already left for good or are you still open to using the platform now that more subreddits are reopening?

I’ve personally deleted the Reddit related apps off my phone and replaced them with the webapp for Kbin for now by adding the site to my home screen, until an app is developed and released.

    Yea, I’m done. I deleted my 11 y/o main after the Apollo/RIF announcements, and my “main” account after that absolute dumpster fire of an AMA. Honestly, even if they do revert the changes, I’m not going back.

      I didn’t have an account that was very old (about 1.5 years), but I’ve been on reddit for over 10 years, close to 15 I’d think. Anyway, all that is to say, fuck spez lol

        I lurked on Reddit a few years before i joined. Ended up staying 8.5 years.

        I’ve seen Reddit go thru changes, some for the better, others not so much. But this latest change was the one that noped me out.

        I love kbin. Still in it’s infancy and I absolutely love it, hiccups and all.
