I never really cared about upvotes and downvotes, but I liked that my comments and participation meant something to someone at one time or another. I liked that when I posted a comment or asked a question people could look through my post history to learn more about me and answer accordingly. More than anything I miss my saved posts and comments and enjoyed going back to read through what was important or funny to me at a particular moment in time. I don’t have close friends or any family that lives within 1,000 miles so the connections I made through Reddit meant something.
I’m grieving.
Over 15 years here. All gone over ‘vote manipulation’ which is a complete joke as Reddit manipulates the vote counts constantly. Only they can do that!
Good riddance. Lemmy and similar already have a better experience.
They banned you for vote manipulation? What did you do?
One account got banned from a local subreddit for posting with a < 60 day account. Then I forgot about that (wasn’t a big deal) and posted in that same sub with an alt. So a ban for a small technical reason turned into getting banned from the whole site. Way to go Reddit!!
