I've never been sentimental about a social media site but it's sad for me to see reddit so clearly killing itself. Pushshift is already banned and Apollo is soon to follow. Reddit will either pivot fully to a mainstream audience or die out. It's just sad for me to see it doing it to itself.

It was on r/fixit. Every single time I ask a question on there I somehow get attacked every time. Last time I asked how to fix something on my kids toy box and someone said "maybe you shouldn't have kids if they are going to destroy stuff". sir. For real? You ever seen a child?

They probably haven't left their basement long enough to see a child lol
