No, and I blocked it on my DNS server so I don't accidentally go there either

Personally use FairEmail on Android, and Claws Mail on desktop. Both FOSS clients with encryption support.

Those of you that like Thunderbird, Betterbird is a hardened fork of that. I use it for calendar/CalDAV purposes.

I have this feeling of loss over several good spaces on the internet going down/changing for the worse recently. There was ADS-B Exchange getting sold to a company with a vested interest in certain planes not showing up on the tracker.

Twitter, while never good, was at least a good place for a lot of discussion especially news. From the world's biggest breaking news to smaller local journalists and reporters, you could find it all and talk about it there.

Then imgur wiping all nsfw and non-account posted photos. It was the second coming of photobucket. I can only hope that a lot of the pics posted on forums got saved and can eventually be redirected to the archived versions.

Now reddit cutting off the only good ways to access all of the information on their site. I know the world will eventually move on to the next thing, but I will always remember my time on reddit. I had a shitty home life and my escape on the site was the only thing keeping me going some days.

Okay, dramatic rant over. I need to get good at coding and shit so I can be the change I want to see on the internet.

The Archive Team has been working on reddit for a while now. I've had six workers running since imgur slowed down. If you can spare a little bit of computing power we could use your help! You can learn more here:
