just curious if anyone regrets going nuclear
how does it feel knowing that you looked like feces smearing toddlers to everyone else?
I imagine this was a lot of people’s first reality check in a long ass time lmfao

It’s interesting how you went from gung-ho anti-reddit to this. hmm.
Where do you see the old gung-ho anti-reddit bit? Genuinely curious.

Who says they failed? They look like a stunning success to me, considering how much growth the fediverse and alternatives like squabbles got during that time, and the momentum has kept up after.
Even now more and more groups are moving off reddit to something else.
And I guess you didn’t see this year’s final r/place picture.
From a monetary point of view, spez will probably win. He’ll destroy reddit completely in his quest for the IPO, and get to the point where the numbers are juiced up enough that he can sell high, make a huge chunk of money, and take his exit. But that doesn’t negate our success.
Also,…

Please don’t confuse us with your mirror.
Lol nice alt account u/spez
Nah no regrets here
Seriously though if you miss reddit so much go back?
We do not care
I am really proud of myself for being consistent even if the protest ultimately didn’t work. I detest social media that disrespects their user. Thats exactly why in the last 3 years i deleted my Instagram, Spapchat, Whatsapp and Twitter account.
And if some people see me as a “feces smearing toddler” then thats their problem. I like it here a lot better.
Actually, pretty good tbh. I deleted facebook, twitter, etc back in 2019, deleted google in 2022, and deleted reddit in 2023. Now i just use lemmy and mastodon for socials and i am glad i took those steps
No ragrets…
If there are any “feces smearing toddlers” to be found, the preponderance of them are on Reddit. It’s what you’re trying to do here, and you’re welcome to fuck right back off there.
I don’t have any regrets here. I vastly prefer the vibe of the fediverse. I feel like I can actually contribute and have people respond to me meaningfully.
I do think it was a “reality check”, as you say, for some people that the exodus wouldn’t completely bring reddit to its knees. It’ll be a slow decline into irrelevancy that will take a longer amount of time as new mods become overwhelmed and give up, people slowly realize the content creators and commenters have moved on, etc. It could take years.
A little reality check for you, if you think people leaving a product because they don’t like it means they are a “feces smearing toddler” then perhaps you should take a good long in the mirror and ask yourself when you became the asshole child.
I deleted my Facebook account years ago, no regrets. Deleted my Reddit account yesterday, no regrets. Not sure what OP’s point is, but comparing people to toddlers when you are incapable of typing a complete sentence does not help you make it.
No. Staying on reddit would be lame.
