    Why do people still continue to use this shit site and then act surprised when this happens?

        I was addicted Reddit. I left after the gzd purge, and looking back it’s not at all appealing.

          Like it’s not rose-tinted glasses right? It’s legitimately gotten worse (more ads as posts, ‘unapproved subreddits’ needing an account??, etc) right?

            I think after taking breaks from some things that weren’t great in the first place they lose their appeal, but yeah theyre getting worse too

      I personally use it because of how many comrades I follow, I wish they were on here but it is what it is. I assume they’re on Twitter because they don’t know of any alternative and the wide reach they can have.

      I use it for some of my other more mundane interests still (music and cooking stuff predominantly), but not politics. Trying to be a leftist on twitter is a special kind of futile. I don’t actually post much of anything on it, but there are some good recipe and music resources I keep an eye on from time to time, it remains decent for that.
