Goodbye Reddit, hopefully Feddit is my forever home (self.feddituk)

Well, looks like Feddit (I hope there's a German one called Deddit) is now my home. I've been here a while and am enjoying the more intimate atmos.

Over the last couple of weeks I've downloaded all my reddit posts and comments, deleted all my reddit posts and comments and now, today, deleted my account.

Goodbye /u/TheWrongFusebox, you were a blast.

Yeah. Read this to see why Reddit's trajectory was pretty much inevitable: https://pluralistic.net/2023/01/21/potemkin-ai/#hey-guys

The Fediverse may be different, given it's never going to go hunting that gazillion dollar IPO.

Rad, I will read that now, thanks.

Brilliant article - we can now see behind the wizards curtain and it's not a pretty sight. Confirms my decision to get out - the Fediverse is what the web should always have been but it was co-opted by Big Tech who offered us free and easy Internet access as long as we did it in their walled garden.

Web 4.0 has been a bit vague but I do wonder if one of the keys is the Fediverse.
