I didn't do it till last minute cause I'm lazy and hate creating accounts for every little thing these days (though I definitely prefer a new account than login with Google or whatnot). However I loved Reddit is Fun and the CEO has made some less than satisfactory decisions so it was time to pull up stakes and move on, again, though 15 years since the Digg move it had it's time, now for something else. I thought it was amusing I didn't even realize spez was the CEO till this recent but, I just always saw him posting but never commenting so I ignored him years ago. Figure you should do more than spam links on these sites.
