Hey folks, as many of you know by now, reddit is falling into the same accelerating spiral of enshittification as many other for-profit platforms. I’m not going to get into detail about the short-sighted API changes that have, as of today, killed the favorite ways for many to browse reddit on mobile, as they have been discussed to death in other places.
I’d rather not reopen the CB communities on reddit as that would be rewarding the reddit admins for their bad behavior. Instead, I’m going to encourage the community to take a look at Lemmy and other free, open-source alternatives to reddit. For 11 years, circlebroke has been (ironically) complaining about reddit on reddit. Maybe it’s time to break that cycle. Or we can just start complaining about Lemmy on Lemmy, who knows.
