I hope you did all this behind a good ad blocker/DNS filter or else you just increased engagement with the site and potentially their ad delivery network. They also collect the analytics, think advertisers won’t pay for metadata related to a cohort of users mass exodusing? I love the decentralized setup here, this is really cool. Let’s get more time and engagement here instead and stop providing our data to Predditers.
The only time I don’t use an adblocker is on my work computer because they are so locked down. If I have to go there again I’ll use a VPN just to fuck with their engagement.
I edited all my comments to Fuck u/spez and deleted them and then deleted my account. They ruined a decent thing.
Same, then they perma-IP banned all of my accounts, lmao.
FYI, they go beyond IP and use browser fingerprinting to ban all your accounts.
There’s also a hilarious bug in reddit logic that can let you ban innocent users this way :3
That’s what happens when the CEO starts taking advice from Elon Musk on how to run a social media company.
