I don't like reddit and I never have. Their whole platform is designed to be anti speech and pro corporate. Once Swartz was out of the picture it was over for good. It has become a cesspit of corporate shills and anti free speech. It's a platform that should be avoided by anyone who values freedom.

I don't know the exact timeline but it seems like when they fired Victoria and brought in Ellen is when it went to shit, but it's been a while

Dude, that era was so tumultuous. And then Unidan turned out to be a POS??? He was my first reddit hero :'( lmao
