I literally just had a friend tell me he joined Threads and how neat it was, etc etc and when I explained why I wouldn’t be joining him, he basically just gave me the old “Well I already know they have all my information so it doesn’t matter”

…like wtf? So you just…give up having any privacy whatsoever? I just couldn’t respond to him after that, I don’t really know how to respond to that. There’s a disease spreading in the world unfortunately and it isn’t just COVID. It’s one called Apathy and too many people are coming down with it.

Ok, but only if I get to make the next post that complains about people complaining about people who complain about Reddit. Or…something.

I posted a similar comment elsewhere but along the same line of thought: The sad thing is that the masses that are still on Reddit at this point dgaf and will likely stay on Reddit forever. There’s a real problem of Apathy in today’s culture when people are just jonesing for their fix of daily content/memes, or at the very least nothing that disrupts the status quo. They don’t give a fuck about “ideals” or what corporations do or farm from them so long as their instant gratification and daily intake of said content remains unchanged.

My hope is that you’re right, but my fear is that I am.

I haven’t seen it mentioned, so I’m guessing it’s not the case (and I’ve never been a mod on Reddit so I have no idea how things work behind the scenes) - but is there anything preventing mods from just…nuking the entire subreddit? Deleting it? I mean I know Reddit could probably “un-delete” it but still, all mods of those private communities should just go full scorched earth and just nuke the subreddit rather than hand it over/have it taken away (again if that’s an option. If not, just ignore).

“What are companies thinking”

It turns out I actually have the ability to convert thoughts to text for any company CEO or Board Member. So allow me to post an excerpt of what I’ve found:
