It's going to take a bit to get used to, but I'm like Lemmy for the most part.

Haven't removed my reddit account, but I only have one sub that is still online at this point.

Really does feel like they killed a giant.

I am so hesitant to delete my Reddit account. I've had it for 12 years and there is a small bit of me that hopes they will fire u/spez and go back to the Reddit I have loved for so long. As long as he is around though I won't be going back and it really does feel as though they have killed a giant.

I have the same hope but they're probably going to make the changes, make spez the fall guy, pay him fuck off money...and they'll go about their merry way. It's sad that Reddit trying to become a generic social media platform rather than just do it's own thing.

This was the final straw for me at Reddit as well. Happy to be here now! Still trying to learn the ropes.
