    Forsaken it, unless it comes up in my google searches for something I need help with. I dont have an account anymore, so I just read when I do have to go there.

        every account I ever logged into on multiple devices was banned, new accounts I make on any of those devices is banned immediately after creating the account.

          Do you give them you're email address? I thought I was IP banned and then I made an account to follow a bands touring subreddit, and they still haven't dinged me yet. I just didn't register my email

    people talk about SV too much on reddit, i pretty much only look at fantasy fiction, gardening, and comics sort of stuff lmao, just innocent little side hobbies where that shit never shows up. i almost quit hexbear when it first started out because there was an obsession on extolling SV ALL THE TIME without any warning, making it a hostile environment for people who experienced SV. stuff like epstein and kavanaugh jokes. one user would make a post every day about kavanaugh and i was halfway to hunting them down irl. im glad that the site has grown past this and the mods remove stuff that dont have nsfw and content tags so i can actually interact with leftist discussion and news.

    There's no good alternative for discussion of soccer in America, specifically MLS and USL.

    BlackEpsteinFeed and r/emulation are about it. Also when troubleshooting or researching stuff, unfortunately.

        the mobile site seems to eat comments and messes up the sorting if you look at more than 100 comments and doesn't load all comments when looking at a series of comments. it's just a pain to navigate.

        New reddit is a worse user experience designed around how to best serve ads.

        i do, over and over again, but if you just use a website like https://temp-mail.org/en/ and verify the account, they seem to not give a shit. If you try to make an account without an email address youll get shadowbanned in a couple days.

    Total burn. When a product pulls bullshit, it dies for me: Facebook, Activision, reddit, Nestlé, Elon Musk

    I think I've made like 4 posts on Reddit since finding out about this place. It had become one of those places I used to go to for the sole purpose of getting angry. So I dropped it, just like all the other sites I'd visit to get angry.

    I deleted my account a long time ago. I still browse Trueanon, some circlejerk subreddits, and subreddits for specific games.

    Once in a while I need to use Reddit to find info that I need but I no longer browse. Apollo getting killed made it easy to dump. Even before, I’d really only ever browse r/traa and some other queer subs.

            I'd imagine its origin is similar to how old clothes left in storage can end up being eaten apart by moths after not being used for so long and is filled with holes when you finally take it out of storage?

            The analogy being that brainworms are what happens when people haven't used their brain in a long time, don't think through the things they believe and so on. Their brain is simply filled with whatever has happened to worm its way in there, like Q-Anon conspiracy shit and the like.
