Yeah absolutely agree with you! When people started "protesting" in the absolute most hypocritical ways i knew it was done (people joining /place out of "spite" was an absolute joke to me)
And in my experience only 2 types of people roam reddit now, the ones who dont give an ef (and thats fine) and the people who complain but secretly don't know they are in a unhealthy relationship and just stick with it because thats all they know and just like to complain.
So id we all put in a bit of effort in it itll be just as big as reddit.
Just came in from reddit, so from a newbie point of view so far so good, altho the content and users are not as expanded as reddit i think its a matter of time. people are haphazardly looking for alternatives and the only reason people stay is because of the interaction. I for instance immediately tried looking up the threads i was subbed to reddit as well. Its there just not as big and ill gladly trade it in instead of dealing with reddit any longer.
