Amen. 9 years on reddit. I spent countless hours per week browsing and posting. I don't have Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat or any of that shit... Literally was just reddit. And he destroyed it.

If I being honest... I know that all those hours I was wasting was literally just that... Wasted time. But... I enjoyed it, so I don't care. I miss the good ol reddit days.

Fuck Spez should be a t-shirt.

Edit: I should clarify that I DO appreciate what has gone into the fediverse and it provided me a place to go for a similar experience. To any of the devs and people growing it... Props to you all! The dev who made sync work for lemmy... My dude... Thumbs up! Sync was hands down my all time favorite reddit app, and now I have it here!

Reddit could have retained the public goodwill just by communicating things in a transparent manner... well ๐Ÿคท
