Relaxed section for discussion and debate that doesn't fit anywhere else. Whether it's advice, how your week is going, a link that's at the back of your mind, or something like that, it can likely go here.

MODERATORS
I feel like I'm just about done since Reddit is pretty much irredeemable to me at this point. However, I think we've got at least another month of it to go before everybody's done.
It has been nice and have more free time… but I also do enjoy reading the dirt on what’s going on ngl.
Not a lot much else going on here, sadly.
Defederation wars are coming maybe...
TF is Readit?
I think it is fine to talk about developing news regarding Reddit just as we would any other social media site. Part of the issue I have with these threads though is that it's still basically the same comments being made. The big news revolves around the API decisions, and the really scummy leadership. That's what all of the comments really fall back to, understandably so. It would still be nice to hear some discussion about what former Redditors think about new developments, such as the recent threats to have the community vote out mods who keep their subreddits private
I think there are two aspects to this...
- The majority of people on federated message boards (lemmy, beehaw, kbin, etc) are former Reddit users who migrated specifically because of actions by Reddit, so it is natural to talk a bit more about Reddit at least for a short while. I believe this happened for quite a while on Mastodon (Twitter) as well.
- It's kinda fun to watch a dumpster fire in action ngl and I don't think this will pass until Reddit finally figures something out themselves...
