I don't mind YouTube shorts usually, although my TikTok feed is far better. But last week, my YouTube app started opening to the shorts tab. Infuriating. I'll watch a short if it piques my interest, but that's not what I'm going to YouTube for.

Welcome, hyperslob!
In my small town, we only had 4g lte, but it was quick. That is until 2 months ago, they 'updated the towers' to give us 5g... except now nothing works. My phone shows 5g but I have zero bars and zero service. When I switch phone to lte, it'll show full bars but has zero service. It often completely drops to SOS mode. It's ridiculous. Several people in town have contacted Verizon and the FCC and Verizon's official response has been, "we are aware that service is not optimal in this area, but we currently have no plans to fix it. If you are unhappy with our coverage, we encourage you to switch providers." It's infuriating. They've "updated" the town's service from LTE to broken 5G/nothing at all and said "yeah what're you gonna do about it, leave if you don't like it" knowing that their tower is the only tower in the area.
I had a '93 F150 for a few years. It was a v8 5.8L with an extended bed. Until... I let my friend borrow it and he... redlined it for several miles in first gear, (accidentally put it in 1st gear instead of into drive, and didn't noticed the extremely loud engine and the fact that he couldn't go over 20mph... yes, he is that stupid lmao) until it began smoking and he pulled it into a random driveway. And then as if that weren't bad enough, the genius homeowner popped the hood and hosed down the engine which, if you know anything about cars or metal, was the dumbest thing he could've done. Cracked up the whole thing. ðŸ˜
But that thing was a fucking beast man. These new trucks can't even fit a fucking 2x4 or a sheet of OSB in the bed. They are useless.
That sub started out fun and with pretty believable stories as well. Nowadays people write novels and the comments take everything so extreme and serious.
I'll give it until the end of June. By that point, anyone who was going to leave reddit will have left, and new users will come more organically. At that point, the rexxitors will do what redditors do best, which is gatekeep.
Yuck. I'm sorry that happened to you. Were they caught/reported/punished in any way?
I'm the same. My account is 11 years old. I created it when I was 14 - I'm 25 now. I like the ability to read through comments that my teenage self wrote :-)
Oh man that's creepy. Maybe someone just saw a spider or something? It sucks that our minds always go straight to the worst possible reality, like one in which it was the result of a murder haha.
Same here - I was never an active poster, but I love commenting! Must have something to do with our personalities.
I'll have you know I graduated college magna cum laude. There is literally no way that I misspelled a word.
Angry, pointess debates are so fun lol. They're my guitly pleasure
Same here. I've been using old.reddit with RES and apollo for so long that I forgot reddit even had ads until I tried the official app.
I once got banned from some random sub for commenting in r/conservative. I responded to the mods like "tf? I'm a leftist, I'm debating with the conservatives" and got a response from the mod saying "yeah whatever you're wasting your time and you sound like an idiot. Bye."
