The funniest part of the article is how he's slamming the actions of unpaid moderators while saying "they’re mad because they used to get something for free, and now it’s going to be not free".

Today I made the jump and deleted my last account. I used Reddit one way or another for the last 16 years. It feels weird, but at the same time, I simply couldn't support the platform anymore. Being honest, it hasn't been like the platform I once loved using for a long time. Bots run rampant, the same two to three memes get regurgitated over and over and Spez has just been the idiot to break the camel's back.

Welcome here! I also deleted all my accounts. First felt weird, but now I found Lemmy I don't look back. I don't want to support a business run by such a lunatic.

I'm actually impressed how active this place is

[–] [email protected] 23 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Going to be interesting to see how much more active it gets in the coming weeks

It's going to be a huge flood. We'll see if Ernest can keep this place running under the load

Yeah seriously. First the apps and next I'm sure they'll take old away. At that point I don't know how to use reddit with the fucking ads so better to make the cut now.
