The Reddit was my go to. The place for advice. I learned a lot there.

But now, it's all John Oliver.

Usually I wouldn't complain about John Oliver. But this shit is getting ANNOYING. I WANNA LEARN ABOUT PIRACY GODDAMNIT. If a good service is shut down, I wouldn't be able to hear about it if it wasn't for you guys. If a website had a virus problem. If I was having trouble. Thank whoever made this website and this community. You're our only hope.

If they don't need us to thrive, they should just get over people leaving.

I don't care about market values, stocks, "group mentalities", or any of that. Those specific things relating to Reddit have no bearing on my personal life. I don't care if Reddit thrives or dies at this point. I am done with that company over personal values.

Additionally, I don't miss the toxic comments. I don't miss people insulting others at the drop of a hat over minor disagreements. I don't the miss the poorly-veiled put downs. I don't miss the condescending tones.

I am happy that I left Reddit. Now that I'm gone, I don't think anything could ever make me go back.
