The saddest part about this is…it didn’t have to be this way. Reddit’s greed turned something beautiful (or at least with some nice pieces) into a hellscape….

I'd never thought that the protest would lay this long. Not a step back!
Keep poking, disrupting and agitating until you get any reaction. Catharsis is also important.
Good that the protest keeps going. Lemmy AND Squabbles are not a fraction of what Reddit was for all my interests and hobbies. Let's hope more and more people keep learning about the alternatives.
In my experience, those with power will destroy themselves from spite rather than change their mind.
Is reddits already public or what is going in with the IPO right now?

Burn baby burn. I have no illusions on how much we actually affected reddits bottom line but I can only hope that the power users from reddit will slowly leave the platform.
