  • This is exactly what I think. We might see a fraction of a spike from the few holding out until the very end, but it won’t be this mass exodus people keep proclaiming it to be.

    Apollo has published many blatant warnings to the app about the shutdown, you literally can’t use the app without seeing them. Nobody using Apollo is going to be surprised at being cut off.

    I assume the other apps are doing something similar to warn their users.

    Those who care are already finding their way over here. Those who don’t care are using the Reddit app. Those who are somehow still ignorant of what’s happening probably don’t use Reddit enough to know the difference.





  • Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein.

    It was an assigned reading in 11th grade. When I finally finished it, I remember feeling like my skin was crawling, and my thoughts were a jumbled mess - I was questioning everything, how I viewed others and how they viewed me, was it right or wrong, how would I have behaved in those situations…

    I remember l just staring out my bedroom window into the pitch black night for an hour just digesting it all. I also remember sleeping with the lights on because I was a little creeped out.

    Being an impressionable teen probably helped, but that book left a profound impact on my way of thinking about how I interact with the world and the people in it.

    It was also my gateway book to classic literature and how good it can actually be!
