I’m all for watching Reddit reap what it sowed. They absolutely should be considered damaged goods at this point.
But the ones that are really going to suffer are the mods that moderate critical subs such as r/suicide r/stopdrinking and r/auntienetwork. Spez didn’t even give one brain cell to think about the consequences of subs that provide valuable support to struggle people.
Well said. It’s easy to say “let that shithole burn” for me, as a person who just used it for entertainment and mild education. But there are integral support communities that I hate seeing suffer.
r/stopdrinking is the sub that really gave me the motivation to stop drinking. I went from binge drinking once or twice a week to nearly completely cutting out alcohol of my life.

Really grinds my gears on that part alone.

that’s awesome, keep it up =)
Maybe lemmy users should do their part in reaching out to them and offering the fediverse as an alternative?
