Sound Off: How many 10+ year redditors have left the site?
I was just browsing a thread on c/nfl looking for new mods. There were multiple 12+ year Redditors there offering to help.
Got me wondering. There are 14,000 of us in this community. How many of us are ten year plus users who have just had enough?
Edit: I didn't expect this post to be as poignant as it became. There are so many of you... I can't reply to everyone. I'm an 11 year user and have modded something like 150 subs over the years. I'm really sad too, but I'm finding that lemmy has most of the content I'm looking for, just needs more comments.
The API was a big blow, but removing awards on past posts and deleting coin balances is really dumb.
I was on Reddit for 13 years! It still trips me out that Reddit was such a constant to me for so long. I learned SO much there over the years, and while I do still miss a few communities, I also know that leaving was the wise choice.
I took a peek over there the other day and the comment sections being dominated by tired puns that add nothing to the conversation and all the bots are worse than ever. I'm much happier not being there anymore, but it's definitely bittersweet!
