Forbes: Reddit Protests Escalate As Rebel Mods Are Kicked Out::Fresh trouble for Reddit as users deface digital artwork with messages attacking the company’s embattled CEO.
It’s fun to see them getting it from all angles, but the users really should just get out of there since it’s obvious nothing is going to significantly change. The loudest and most effective protest of all is to just leave- but people don’t like the effort it takes to change something in your routine like which site you doomscroll through.
The first couple days after I deleted RiF, I would just pick up my phone and stare at it blankly for a few seconds.
I had to retrain my brain to open Connect instead of searching for RiF.
I’m bouncing around between apps. Connect was good and using Thunder right now. Joey for Reddit was my go to; I just put the Lemmy apps where it was.
I’m really enjoying “Liftoff”. It’s super clean.
Thanks for the suggestion, I have been using wefwef, now renamed voyager, and while I am appreciating it I cannot move past that it’s a web app.
For me, a few communities are just still there and aren’t looking like they’re going to move somewhere else. For the rest I’m already here.
You want communities for related news to meta, twitter, tesla as well? Where do you draw the line?
I know it’s unpopular, but I would like news related to Reddit to be kept on Reddit specific communities
I know it’s unpopular, but I’d like unpopular opinions to be kept on unpopular opinion specific communities 😁
Keep my bubble clean! /s
you’d like all other communities to be echo chambers?
No, I was employing sarcasm to make the same point that you are.
Eh, it’s tech news.
I’d argue Reddit (and Twitter) aren’t tech firms, they’re social media / advertising (depending on how liberal you want to be with that term) firms.
You should start your own tech oriented community then. That way you’ll be able to implement all the arbitrary rules over what constitutes “tech news” that you like.
This! Mods, please listen!
