“There’s a lot of noise with this one. Among the noisiest we’ve seen. Please know that our teams are on it, and like all blowups on Reddit, this one will pass as well”

    I haven’t visited the site or used any app since last week. I think the final nail in the coffin were the latest comments from their CEO. I’m glad there are alternatives, but in reality the break from Reddit has illustrated that while there’s a place for online communities, it’s exceedingly easy for a distraction to become a diversion and then a habit and then basically an addition. I’ll probably be somewhat active here as I figure out how to navigate kbin or other alternatives, but I don’t intend on returning to Reddit, or any other platform, site, or app to the same extent. This whole mess has probably been a net positive for my mental health, lol.
