Can't shake the feeling it'll be a pump & dump. It would be truly poetic for Reddit to be pumped up with bot content, IPO, then dumped.

Yeah for sure.

And mods would run wild with power? Remember r/askscience? Mods basically killed it by gatekeeping to the extreme. IMO peak reddit is 2012.

Yeah I feel like Mastoden tries to do too many things at once. It feels like twitter and discord put together.

I'm going back to bargaining. Maybe I can find a way to still use it even after they kill off old reddit (I'm sure this is next). But I just think of how the soul of the site will be gone. It'll just be like any facebook group or twitter feed.

I've never been sentimental about a social media site but it's sad for me to see reddit so clearly killing itself. Pushshift is already banned and Apollo is soon to follow. Reddit will either pivot fully to a mainstream audience or die out. It's just sad for me to see it doing it to itself.

I'm here because they banned it. Figure if they are threatened by lemmy it must be good.
