Just deleted my Reddit account because of a couple reasons. One, I barely used it after the API pricing protests, and two, Reddit is allowing users' posts to be used as AI training data, which I find reprehensible for obvious reasons. I will admit that I feel pretty sad about it, though, because I made my account back before Reddit completely went down the shitter and was actually kinda decent. I hope more people use Lemmy or Kbin because it's feeling pretty lonely here in the Fediverse. Sorry this vent isn't particularly sad. I'm just kinda bummed about this is all.

P.S. obligatory fuck u/spez lololololol

I've been here since Reddit is Fun went down. Been a little over a year I think and I have no regrets. It took some getting used to, but it's honestly been an amazing experience. After this long I don't even miss reddit anymore. It may be a little lonely here sometimes, but it's getting bigger every day and I hope you find a home here. And personally, I like the smaller size. Brings back the vibes of the older internet in a good way.

Reddit is Fun was so awesome. It's a damn shame that it and all the other APIs had to see the chopping block. It would've made a great Lemmy API.

Same, RIF was my jam man. Sure, there are fewer comments and interactions here, but I also check it much less frequently and get similar quality of content. Hell, we even have repost bots now!
