At this point, I’m not even going to bother trying to go on there anymore.

    Ok, you do that, but people who don’t want to get cut off from 400 million people, how do we fuck up and breakthrough reddit’s anti anonimity defenses ?

    Killing reddit is on the table, but is there a more practical approach ?

      i dont have an account anymore but for anytime i need to view a reddit post i use RedReader. its an open-source thirdparty app thats still allowed to use reddits API for accesibility reasons.

        Not to sound like I’m claiming to be up on a moral high ground or anything, but it leaves a bad taste in my mouth using accessibility tools for non accessibility reasons when it comes to Reddit. Ordinarily, I wouldn’t care, but Reddit has shown me that they don’t give a shot about people who need accessibility tools at all. Allowing some of them to stay around was just a desperate attempt at preventing some bad PR. If they thought an accessibility tool was mainly used by people trying to bypass their stupid and greedy decisions, they would 100% kill it off in an instant

      If you’re anonymously browsing the site without being logged in while on a vpn are you really being “cut off” from the people there?

      I mean… if you have a relationship with those 400 million people that’s cultivated through your unrecorded, invisible, surreptitious reading of their comments that’s a deeply diseased thing.
