I mean I stopped using reddit and I think I'm better for it. I haven't replaced it with much else so it's a good thing. So takeaway. I don't care what happens, they can make all the money in the world, I can only control what I use and consume. I find the next draft to be a wonderful curated news aggregation that someone has been lovingly doing for a long long time. It has been better for keeping up with the news. So that's it.

13 years, over 500,000 comment karma, also taking a break. Of course, Reddit made it easier when they randomly removed all my posts and comments! I appealed, got a canned "oops, spam-filter false-positive, fixed now" message, but they didn't actually fix anything, and the sole appeals-form stopped working because it falsely claims the account is normal... And it happened a second time when I sought help using another account! (Yes, I'm very bitter at the Kafkaesque shitstorm.) Fortunately I was still able to get a data dump--a bunch of massive CSV files--so it's not a total loss, some things I'm proud of writing I can still reuse. So maybe it's time to go back to blogging, perhaps replace the abandoned WordPress site with a static generator...
