I’ve never been sentimental about a social media site but it’s sad for me to see reddit so clearly killing itself. Pushshift is already banned and Apollo is soon to follow. Reddit will either pivot fully to a mainstream audience or die out. It’s just sad for me to see it doing it to itself.

    I’m still in denial. I know Apollo is going away, I know I’m deleting my Reddit account on June 30. But I still don’t feel like any of it is real. Reddit has become such an integral part of my online life that I’m not sure how to even process this whole thing.

      Agreed. Reddit is a good friend of mine. I love my small local communities. I fear the worst for them

        Same. I subscribe to so many small niche communities and i don’t know where else to go to find that content. Hard to find forums for some of that stuff.
