Pirates want to stay on Reddit? This is the last group I had expected to have such a reaction, but here we are. Yes, the mod could have worded it better, but these people actually want to stick around on Reddit.

I personally find Lemmy to be a perfectly viable alternative to Reddit for such subs. I wonder about the reasons why these people still don't want to move.

My favourite are the comments of people saying "return the sub back to normal, this shit is stupid and isn't doing anything! I don't even use Apollo so I don't care" - posted from Boost for Reddit.

A lot of people don't even understand. They genuinely think this only affects Apollo and that Christian is being a baby lol. Can't wait to see their faces when their app stops working and they whine.

they'll have to manage using the Reddit app to whine, so there will be a delay!

Or they'll feel stupid and try to pretend the official app is great.

A year ago I tried using the official app because people would chat with me, and I would miss them. Lasted about 3 days before I couldn't handle it anymore. It's so bad.

Now spez has deleted all my accounts and IP banned me, so I don't even need to worry lmao.

I've seen someone unironically whine about how the mods were harming more users than Reddit mods. And of course, r/AskReddit's pseudo-neutrality is infuriating.
