So has there been any updates on the Reddit saga? I’m low key loving that I get to live through a part of internet history for once. I hardly used Twitter. I wasn’t on iPhone for the privacy breaches. I think this is the first big scandal I get to witness first hand. Well, except maybe the blaster worm back in ‘03.

I tried to yoink my avatar off reddit, but it didn't really work...

It looks like someone bonked me on the head then took a knife to half my antenna thing :(

Ok I’m just gonna say it. Ok I’ll just whisper… I miss reddit, this doesn’t feel the same. Strangely, I also feel ghosted? Melbourne reddit gone without a trace. The other city subs are back, but Melbourne still in lockdown (and there wasn’t even a press conference.) It is a good space here, but I don’t know I am nostalgic I guess.

The DT is a like grassroots digital community that shows respect and kindness to each other that other subreddits could only dream about. With a new moderator that is known and quite frankly kicking arse so far. and we don’t need to provide reddits CEO with more money through advertising dollars when we are literally on the ground floor of something new and exciting here.

We can build this place however we want.
