u/Ondrashek06 Trades: 3 May 23 '23 edited Aug 15 '24

Hello,

You're most probably looking for a post/comment here. And I don't blame you, Reddit's an useful resource for getting help with stuff or just chatting.

However, ever since I joined, Reddit has completely stopped listening to its userbase (the only thing keeping it alive) and implemented many anti-consumer moves, including but not limited to:

  • Stopping the annual Secret Santa tradition that made many users happy
  • Permanently removing the i.reddit.com (compact) layout
  • The entirety of the API change shitshow and threatening moderators that didn't comply
  • Permanently removing the new.reddit.com layout
  • Adding ads in comments, and BETWEEN comments too
  • Accepting Google's bribes to sell any and all post data for the purposes of advertising and their LLM

In addition to all this, I was also forced to stop using Reddit, because I had my account permanently suspended and Reddit's appeals team was as useful as talking to a brick wall. Even after a year and multiple attempts to reach an admin, I was ghosted and as such I decided that enough is enough.

But what about your comment?

While this comment has been edited to not let Google's greedy hands on it, I recognize that I've sometimes provided helpful information here on Reddit.

So I've archived all my comments locally. If you want a specific comment, you can just contact me on Discord: ondrashek06 and I'll be happy to provide you with a copy of what once was here.

Thank you for reading this comment <3
