- Non OP's downloading TikToks and uploading for karma
- The "I know you are but what am I" childish back and forth instead of participating in a respectful debate (bonus points for scientifically sound sources to back up arguments)
- Folks being contrary just for the sake of being contrary
- Amazing content receiving moderate attention, while low-effort garbage posts end up at the top on the front page
I'm sure there's much more, but that's what I got for now.

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust- people can rebuild these communities again elsewhere, and right now Tildes looks very promising, and it's only in its alpha stage.

If Reddit doesn't have the content that we (the users and volunteer mods) have provided them for free over the years, then they have no site. Let them descend into Diggland. I just really hope that the majority of the user base refuses to cave, in regards to accepting their godawful app and unacceptable treatment to all of the developers of the many amazing 3rd-party apps. This is the time to prove strength in numbers.

Comment on Redditors of Tildes, which subreddits are you missing the most during the blackout? in ~tech
snarkyginger LinkMainly the main news, politics, and world news subs. I don't want to grab the latest headline from CNN or BBC or MSNBC, I want u/yourmomsux420 who contains a wealth of knowledge on the subject at...Mainly the main news, politics, and world news subs. I don't want to grab the latest headline from CNN or BBC or MSNBC, I want u/yourmomsux420 who contains a wealth of knowledge on the subject at hand to break it down for me in the comments. I wish I didn't have to quit you, Reddit.

Comment on Today is my 11th Reddit Cakeday, and it is likely to be my last as an always-on user in ~talk

I'll forever miss the pre-IPO days.
Today's "youths" (shout-out to Schmitty) are not to be "truffled" with. They'd likely have me rocking back and forth in the fetal position while crying on the floor after the first harsh truth they decided to deal me. "FINISH HIM!" /Mortal Kombat: The Spoken Word Edition.
