That's me deleted my Reddit account along with all data as I do not agree with recent events that have been taking place. I'm goingΒ to concentrate on Mastodon , Lemmy and take a look at Kbin .

Deleted my account of 15 years with the quickness after the Spez AMA. Just didn't want to participate in that ecosystem anymore and saw the writing on the wall. I came to Reddit from Digg and never went back either.

The fediverse seems to be the future even with any inherent growing pains. I just can't trust one idiot to make decisions for everyone.

I just find it so hard to believe this because I cannot imagine 99% of people caring to go through the sign-up process.

I'm sorry, but that's just a ridiculous way to look at modern social media. Do you not want decent content?

[–] joestaen@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

i do want decent content

which is why the vast majority of reddit's current userbase is unwanted in my eyes.

Double edge sword, isn't it. There's a sweet spot that Reddit passed over a decade ago. I don't need endless memes and hot takes, or dopamine triggering feeds.

I'm hoping for a backlash to the TikTok-ification of everything.
