Eh. I did open reddit by accident a two times today myself, idly tapping the Relay icon and swiping it away on the loading screen.

But... I've also nuked my post history on all of my alts. My main account was a contributor on some tech subs where, while I abhor reddit making money off my freely given contributions, I also abhor the wanton destruction of freely exchanged information at a cultural level.

I'm considering how I could spare those posts and nuke the rest while I figure how to rehost that content elsewhere. Then again, I got that same info from somewhere else, and those sites still work so maybe the argument is academic.

Even I don't know what I'm about to do yet. Interesting times, indeed.
