Remember that legendary times when reddit was new?
That's what's happening now in the fediverse with Lemmy and kbin, I am to excited being a part of it as to mourn about reedit.
Yeah I think it’s part of the natural cycle of social media for corporations to ruin things, increasing organisational complexity leads to management who can increasingly delude themselves their interests still align with the users when they’ve clearly drifted far apart.
I think the future is small, decentralised communities with no VCs, no ad men, and no CEOs. I’m much more excited to be a part of that than I am sad to see Reddit go.
I hope the decentralization has a chance. It could still be monetarised or "regulated to death" by government's . They both don't like the loss of control that system brings.
So we should have fun as long as it lasts.
