Yo I’m gonna be honest, I’m sad about all this. Like my minds struggling to contain whatever this complex mixed up emotion is. Like I said in the dt before everything blew up, I’m not good at goodbyes. And part of me just feels like this is an end of some description, like nothings gonna be the same again. I don’t like change.
I feel like the community's been broken up, and I also feel sad. Instead of being in one place we've become divided, with some at Reddit and some here, some on discord and others forming new breakaway Reddit subs. I do like the vibe here better, it is definitely much nicer and more supportive in my opinion. Maybe it's all the anger over there, or maybe I'm wary because a handful of people just closed the sub without any consideration for the users and it could happen again. I'm definitely here to stay, but I miss what it used to be as well. We had a great thing and they broke it.
