    Literally can't even visit Reddit if I wanted to. The site is totally unusable on mobile without disabling VPN and using the app

    Reddit dying would be an unabashed good for the internet. Is it too big to fail though? Something tells me private companies would keep it afloat as an advertising vessel or a consent manufacturing machine.

      It won't be a catastrophic failure - look at Twitter. I kept expecting for it to get shuttered and it hasn't happened yet (jury is still out), it just gets worse in quality. Reddit will just continue to get worse and worse.

    I still kind of respect Tumblr for costing Yahoo nearly a billion dollars. Please don't make me look at Reddit the same way.

      Tumblr rocks and it is such a better website on scroll/per post. I will read like a dozen Locked Tomb Theory posts in 10 minutes, and half a dozen fan art posts, versus Reddit whining about the woke agenda and excusing genocide.

            Theoretically you could post about it in the c/literature comm, but like don't lmao. Idk where you'd even post something like that, just main maybe, or megathreads.

    If I feel like using Reddit, I try to do it exclusively on my computer so they can lose profit by not being able to show me ads or track my activities
