For example, some of the complaints that people had about Mastodon early on were just odd to me. They made such a big deal out of "you have to pick a server, no one understands that" or nitpicking UI interfaces between Mastodon and twt. They didn't have logical arguments IMHO it was them just not being happy about change and not being honest about that.
Oh, look another article on how Reddit is fine. Must be fine, everyone stop protesting, it doesn't work. /s
Reddit is unprofitable with massive new expenses, no realistic plan on making a profit, apparently trying to pump for an upcoming IPO, being run by a CEO who seems fine to disrespect its lifeblood, the community, and thinks it's a good idea to emulate Elmo... what could go wrong?
Like these sorts of things with large momentum, they don't stop overnight but who can say the Reddit ship is on a good trajectory?
