      I mean I don’t know why they are so obsessed with spez, like go do something actually useful like promoting lemmy to try to decrease reddit userbase.

          There are different interpretations of a protest. Some people believe in boycotts. I personally believe in doing as much damage as possible, and going to reddit to promote a competing plaform will do more damage than reddit has to gain by you interacting with their website, especially if you use an adblocker.

          Yes, that’s how protests work. If you wanna protest Walmart, you protest at Walmart. If you wanna protest Lowe’s, you protest at Lowe’s.

          If they do end up protesting UPS, where do you think they’re gonna go? 🤔

          Spez needs to see the message loud and clear. And they’re making it happen, one pixel at a time.

          Yep this is the mentality

          I checked , I had to download my data from reddit. It’s been a bit more than month since I posted anything on Reddit and I don’t browse either. I am not even protesting, I’m just gone. I am one more abandoned account now. I think that matters the most.

      I’m not sure they would. I stumbled upon their TikTok and they had a day 1 time lapse. They didn’t censor anything. Every dig on spez was on full display.

    I’m getting major fall guy vibes. He’s gonna be the lightning rod for all criticism, be replaced with someone else, keep a cushy sinecure at Reddit and things will continue as they would.
