1 year ago12 years here, across two accounts. I nuked the last day that RIF was able to be used.
I only go back because of the Ukraine Subreddit. Once the war is over I will be done with that site.
The main page yesterday was almost all Bot spam from what I saw before jumping to war updates. It was really noticeable and only served to reinforce that I should be done over there. Random misspelled posts, or words that shouldn’t be present, or even just totally mislabeled posts with 2k+ karma.
Noticing it made me pause and wonder just how bad is reddit now, and when will Elon buy it and rebrand it to Xeddit or something similar
Terry Pratchett said it best!
“The reason that the rich were so rich, Vimes reasoned, was because they managed to spend less money,” wrote Pratchett. “Take boots, for example. He earned thirty-eight dollars a month plus allowances. A really good pair of leather boots cost fifty dollars. But an affordable pair of boots, which were sort of okay for a season or two and then leaked like hell when the cardboard gave out, cost about ten dollars. Those were the kind of boots Vimes always bought, and wore until the soles were so thin that he could tell where he was in Ankh-Morpork on a foggy night by the feel of the cobbles. But the thing was that good boots lasted for years and years. A man who could afford fifty dollars had a pair of boots that’d still be keeping his feet dry in ten years’ time, while a poor man who could only afford cheap boots would have spent a hundred dollars on boots in the same time and would still have wet feet.”
