@randulo "What took them so long?" (The other subs, that is.)

Reddit's been largely useless to me for years. I'd point you at the rants I've written in my own subreddit (https://old.reddit.com/r/dredmorbius) but ... that's set private right now. Internet Archive might point you to them though.

I'd long complained about the lack of decent tools for moderation, true conversation, and information management. Mind that a lot of other sites/services suffer similar deficiencies (Diaspora* for example, among the reasons I've been absent there for most of the past year.)

That thread @paul linked to breaks most of it down, especially this toot: https://toot.cat/@dredmorbius/110533644389420312.

TL;DR: It's not worth my time (#TheSecondPrice), there are better sources of information, and Reddit have made clear for years now that they're not moving in a direction that's of interest or use to me. I cut my losses quite a few years ago, though I've yet to launch a new public resource that fits and expresses my needs, largely because #LifeKeepsOnHappening.
