The best way to protest against reddit is simply to not interact with Reddit (kbin.social)

I see a lot of posts about how they uploaded anti-spez stuff onto reddit, or participated in the nsfw spams/john oliver spams. While I get wanting to let it all out, this ultimately keeps up engagement on reddit rather than bringing it down.

The best way to make sure things go your way? Vote with your wallet, or in this case your voice. Don't speak on reddit. Devote more time helping out the alternatives grow and flourish. And as much as it is a meme, touching some grass can help your mental fortitude.

If you absolutely 100% need to interact with reddit, I suggest installing a redirector addon (such as privacy redirect or... redirector) that can link to a teddit or libreddit instance. Or archiving it with wayback/archive.is/ghostarchive.

Reddit is dead for me once Rif stops working next month anyway, but I've stayed off since the 12th. I'll check in towards the end of the month to say my goodbyes to a small, private sub I'm in, explain why and where I'm going, and download/backup anything I'd like to save. Then that's it.

Screw spez. As long as he's in charge, I'm not going back.

Exactly my stance. Someone gave me reddit gold for changing all my comments, I sent them a message informing them about kbin. Everything I've been doing on Reddit has been cleaning house before I say my final goodbye once RIF closes its curtain.
