    Like, from a self-centered point of view, how dense do you have to be to not understand that moderators not having access to their tools is going to “fuck up your potty time”.

    this is the summary of 60% of reddit now

    pissy white boys mad that their entertainment driven by free labor was interrupted

      Exactly, my point. These people have such a shallow view point that they can’t stand to have their content interrupted for a few weeks to fight for better online rights. That’s why your platform is currently a burning garbage fire. Enjoy your “potty time” now.

      Honestly I imagine a lot of the people fighting against the protests were people paid for by reddit admins to try and sow discourse amongst users. Well, I wonder how that went for them considering the drop in content, and the rising migrations to Lemmy. It sucks because in losing Reddit - the information super highway that it has become - we as a species lose a lot of important information, and a lot of niche questions that wouldn’t be answered otherwise. But that doesn’t mean we can’t ask them again here on Lemmy. 🙂

        Losing the info highway sucks but I wouldn’t say it’s a loss as a species. The majority of users are in North America and then the broader anglosphere. So it’s definitely a loss in that cultural space. But the majority of the world, like India China Korea, doesn’t give a fuck about Reddit.

      Likely because that’s who is left on the platfrom. 60% who actively don’t care, and the other 40% who either haven’t realised what’s happening or have no idea what’s going on.
