@arstechnica it’s funny because Ars owns Reddit and yet continues dunking on spez

@LexiSnep Ars doesn't own Reddit. Ars's parent company owns a share of Reddit.

@arstechnica truthfully, I’m thankful for Reddit’s poor decisions. It led me to jump over to Mastodon, and more importantly, I’ve cut down my endless scrolling and social media habits.

@arstechnica Reddit is a cesspit.

Good riddance to it.
