Call me dumb if you want, but I still see a big issue in MSFT’s naming convention for XBox. They need to stop trying to be clever and just do something sequential.

Agreed! I can’t stand these clickbait thumbnails.

Even worse, it seems the block user functionality on kbin isn’t currently working.

No one wants to see the same article spammed 5 times in a row on their feed.

It will just turn into something completely unrecognizable compared to what it was.

Completely agreed. Reddit won’t die, but it also won’t be the “front page of the internet” as it was from 2016-2022 or so.

Man, I don’t know. I know this is just a personal anecdote, but around my friend circle, I haven’t gotten a single share from reddit in over a month when we used to send links back and forth daily. Those same people have said they haven’t visited reddit in a month, other than the rare checkin on the drama.

I’m sure the significance of the impact is relatively small, but I’d also guess many of those that left were heavy users and contributors. I’ll go over there to check every few days and have noticed the content quality is significantly worse than 2 months ago.

That said, it is also very possible this whole thing blows over and the million or so of us that left are meaningless in reddits overall lifespan.

That Google exec’s comments along with the Apple showcase of Apollo must have reddit leadership shitting their pants.

So much for the protest having “no effect”.

Yep! I left a while ago and moved to Tidal. I’ve been relatively happy with it so far.

Agreed. An application that must be human reviewed is a very large gate that many people will see and just close the site. Myself included.

While it is certainly sad the direction that reddit is going, there is just a little bit of joy in watching the public meltdown after all the user hostile decisions they’ve made over the past few years.

There is not one single new feature added to reddit since before the redesign that has actually added value to the platform for a user.
