I left a couple of months ago. Couldn’t be happier.

The writing is on the wall. The leader thinks the Genius-with-hair-transplants is a superstar, despite destroying a globally recognised brand. Inspired by this, Spez is trying to get Reddit ready for an IPO. This means, maximise profits by any means.

    There’s really a guy on there that’s shocked that he spent $300+ on coins that give you nothing and that they turned out to be useless. They also have the same regular users saying that they’ll finally quit this time, but they’re just lying to themselves and for karma. They financially incentivize the website to get worse and are surprised when it does.

      That’s the problem with traditional local internet currencies: reddit doesn’t support them anymore and they become useless. If only these coins were crypto-blockchained nfts - if reddit decided to no longer support those, then they’d be just as useless, but much more bureaucratically documented.
