I think it looks really good as the first thing you see when you click my profile, what do you think?

      Yep, it’s impressive that so many people still have trust in reddit, and also funny that the next comment was removed by Reddit, probably someone saying something about lemmy I would imagine

      Honestly I’m not as principled as some people but I noticed that I drastically reduced my presence there and it’s going down. I think a lot might have to do that RiF is missing (unrelated, but RIF’s author made a client for tildes.net called weirdly Three Cheers) and I refuse to install their spammy app.

        Pretty much the same experience. I just gradually stopped using reddit in favor of Lemmy.world and when I realized I hadn’t touched my reddit account in two weeks I simply… Deleted it.

        Same, i also think that it somewhat improved my well being since I’m less focused on what ppl online think. And I do still kinda miss reddit, not the platform but the people and the communities rip apollo.

      A job I used to work at a long time had an enlightening moment for me when I had put my 2 weeks in.

      There were two camps of people: those that were happy for me - “wow, awesome, tell me about the new place” And those that were cynical - “you will end up back here anyway”

      I found that the people who behaved cynically truly do end up filtering back in and the people willing to see that other options exist and can even be better end up moving on.

        It’s almost as if your attitude and outlook determine your actions.

        Like, I get it. Some people were dealt a bad hand, and they have a shitty life through no fault of their own. But there’s a huge difference between “Shit sucks” and "Shit sucks and cannot possibly ever change." If you believe that everybody who has a shitty job is doomed to be stuck with that shitty job for the rest of their life, then you’re delusional. Your beliefs do not align with reality.

      I take it as similar to the “cya next week” comments RE RuneScape (or really any other thing on the internet)… they’re kinda half serious half kidding acknowledgements of something’s addictiveness. I wouldn’t read too much into it.

      They just assume that because they continue to see anyone, that they are still seeing everyone.

    Yeah I got so many hate comments any time I would speak out towards the protests. Even in communities I was deeply ingrained in and people I have interacted with over years on the site. Shame that a website can cause people to become so divided.

        Reddit is waaaaay older than chatgpt. Bots have always been a thing, but that’s more account creation and vote manipulation.

            Because what you’re seeing is still macro bots. You have to download terabytes of info to host your own AI, and customize it. If you don’t understand the chronology of automation, specifically on reddit, I’m sorry but you don’t know what you’re talking about. You could have been on reddit since it inception, but that doesn’t mean you understand anything about scripting, automation, or AI.

                Lmao. Yes, chat chatgbt is a language learning model. You have obviously never used the most recent version of chatgpt because it’s on GITHUB. You have to download the data the ai draws upon, unless you’re using api. The only people using api are large companies (ex: reddit api) ; everyone else is downloading the data because we’re not sure how it will be available/ free. Continue being ignorant. See how that works out for you. You are misleading people based on pride.

    man what an age to be alive, the age of spin.

    gone are the days that we saw true outrage or despair happen in the moment.

    now we must properly primp and curate how we will be perceived candidly, which is just about the dumbest and pettiest shit i can think of.

    “i want my profile to look like i was really sticking it to the man” is an admittedly silly look imo

    that being said, go off and you be you because what matters is you got off the shithole of reddit.

    what speaks louder than demonstrative curated comment history is lots of people leaving en masse and going to another service. the more people come over, the more others will adopt the new standard.

    Lol I got those same kind of comments every time I said something negative about reddit during the protest. Haven’t been back since, go figure.

    I haven’t used Facebook for years. It bored me after 20 minutes, I wasn’t sure what else to do there, I closed the tab, I went away. I never made a post about how I’m packing up my little hobo bags and leaving forever, you’ll all be sorry!! I just went, quietly, and never came back.

    I lie, every three months I poke my head in there, and then once I actually sold something on Marketplace, for $80, so FB is the only fucking social website that has ever made me money despite being the one I never use. One of these days I’ll get on there and try to find out my brother’s current address, but he doesn’t respond to messages anymore, either.

    LIkewise, I quit Twitter, shorty before the Elonpocalypse, because it just sucked. I didn’t like being there, and wasn’t having any fun. So I just stopped going there, quietly, telling nobody, I left. Now you have to login to even see it, and yeah, haven’t logged in there in forever. I hear they changed the name.

    That’s how it looks when you actually quit a place. You just quietly disappear one day, like a fish slipping under the waves. Who knows, maybe you’ll find a reason to come back, you know? And it would look stupid as hell if you made some big fucking scene about leaving and then had to crawl back in, WOULDN’T IT?

    Maybe you want to sell an old drumset, or ask a question, you never know. So you slip quietly out the side door, you don’t even slam it, and then you forget to show up again for months at a time, or never again. When was the last time you logged into MySpace?

    You? You look like you’re going to found a subreddit called r/ExRedditors. Move on, already. The future beckons.

    My last comment on reddit is “Fuck /u/spez” too. I didn’t do anything as radical as deleting my comments/posts, nor made any definitive statements but while I lurked a few times there, I never made a new comment since June 30. And by now I’m becoming confident that it will stay that way.

    Idk, I just deleted mine. Anything anyone has or will ever do on that platform will disappear if they fail so why bother. It’s the equivalent of scrolling fuck on a bathroom stall before they demolish the building and if it stays up the same but with onlookers barely paying any mind as they take a massive dump.

    My last comment in reddit was something along the lines “good luck fellas, it’s been a good ride”
