nixCraft 🐧Reddit blackout protest is just like those online petitions. Both are unpredictable about the final results. What are you going to do when you miss r/funny. Use Lemmy? The truth is Reddit admins know there is no alternative. Reddit was ready when Digg 4 happened. I want Reddit to act friendly, but it isn't easy when you take investors' money. They want a return on their investments. It is better to stop using a centralized cloud for everything from SO to Reddit. Let us build independent forums
halas 🇵🇸🇺🇦🇪🇺@nixCraft I think this touches on an important point. VC money are harmful to business, wider economy and society. Just don't take the investor's money. We need to tax the rich to stop never-ending flow of cheap VC money and redirect them to something actually beneficial to the society.
