Reddit Migration

I don’t think there’s necessarily a “morality issue” with accessing Reddit.

Old Reddit has far less tracking and there’s still a trove of UGC on Reddit that even if the fediverse picks up steam, will still be important for a lot of time to come.

The morality issue here really is one piece of shit giving himself the authority to dictate so much knowledge. In some ways I see this as a modern book burning shit Spez is doing.

If you need access to Reddit, minimizing how much tracking and ads they can show you goes a long way of destroying that company.

I suppose if you use old Reddit and block ads they're not making money directly but it's still traffic.

I always used old Reddit anyway, I left because it turned to shit not because of a particular app.

After want they did to my boys (3PA), I said fuck even old Reddit. Unless I need to check one specific niche sub, which won't be very frequent, and mostly to copy information to Lemmy, I'm not giving them any traffic.
