it's mind boggling to me why anyone stays on reddit.
It's a frog/boiling water situation. It never gets suddenly, dramatically worse, it just gets slowly worse over time. I had been noticing some weirdness (described in another comment under this post) for a while and was kinda starting to wonder what was up, but it didn't rise to the level of 'Oh I should do something like this' until I got temp-banned for saying Luigi didn't deserve to go to jail for what he did (which was then reversed on appeal, but not before I got a message saying I was perma-banned for ban-evasion with other accounts (I've had only one account in the 14 years I was on reddit, so that was bullshit), but the ban was lifted instead. It was that combination of an increasing sense that something fucky was going on and an inciting event that made me realize it was considerably worse than I realized. People tend to need an inciting event, otherwise the concern doesn't overcome the inertia to keep doing what you're familiar with.
i guess my side of the boiling pot got too hot faster than the rest did and my event was the reddit blackout protest; all of the subreddits i frequented when dark and it forced me onto lemmy.

Reddit has become the mouthpiece of fascism. They are collaborators.
