I wonder if Reddit is setting thousands of bots loose to keep the activity high so their IPO looks better or something? I don't know how any of this works but something like that wouldn't surprise me.

Does Reddit save edit history?

Pectus excavatum. I have a (fortunately) mild case myself, not as extreme as the photo. Somewhat a source of embarrassment.

Feels like we are being driven apart more each day. What are some things or topics that bring people together? And I don't mean into the same room, I mean emotionally even just for a minute.

They are breaking it alright.

I'm loving the infancy as well. Finally get to be a part of something from early on (ish) lol. Patience is my intention here. I have very low standards and just scroll most of the time. Any friends I made on Reddit, I have subsequently connected with through other apps so none of that is lost. I'll keep my Reddit account as a monument to all the posts I made and karma I got. Occasionally I'll go read through the communities I joined that I miss, but that's it, occasionally. That's about how often I truly engaged anyway. Anything I actually needed from them is available elsewhere, like YouTube, or by going out and meeting people.

Agreed. I replaced the Reddit app icon in my launcher with the one for Lemmy (Jerboa). 98% of the time I'm just mindlessly scrolling and looking at images or memes and occasionally the interesting article. So far, even the minimal content on Lemmy (and Instagram and Tumblr) has filled that need.

Probably two or three times now I've pulled up Reddit specifically to look something up, and that just says to me how often I actually engage with the communities there that matter to me. Reddit will no longer be getting hundreds of hits per day from me. If I need to look something up, maybe I'll go look, and hopefully the communities I joined, like guitar, motorcycles, ADHD, pizza, and other niche interests, will develop elsewhere.

If we join, are we Nostrils?

I hope the devs from the third party apps that Reddit is murdering are able to get similar/better jobs elsewhere. Maybe the dev teams whose platforms are now getting flooded with Reddit refugees could use the help.
