It's so stupid that people would react so emotionally as to relate their feelings to a breakup. This should be a concern to each and every one of you. It's a website. Reacting this way is delusional. You can get your dopamine hit elsewhere, with TikTok and other sources being still available, so why the breakdown?
The rage from the Reddit community has been surprising but this broken form of emotional regulation is embarrassing.
Oh shut up dude. Your first car was just a car, why do you have any sentimentality attached to it?? You're delusional
They're not missing the corporation or the site, they're missing the community.
Yeah, that's very much the case for me as well :/
