Internet forums are disappearing because now everything is Reddit and Discord. And that's worrying. (www-xataka-com.translate.goog)

What are we going to do about it?

Sorry for the Google Translate Link. An easy alternative is much appreciated.

I just left it this week after getting banned from a sub without notice and having not broken the rules as far as I can tell, getting no response about why, and then making new accounts that didn't even participate in that sub that kept getting shadowbanned because "my other account broke the rules"

Fuck reddit. They're happy to let r/conservative call for people's deaths, but say "oh no, anyways" on a post about Teslas at a dealership catching fire and all of a sudden you can't use the site ever again with no explanation why.

Fuck reddit. I've been using it for nearly 15 years. I'm done with it.

My only regret is that I won't be able to call out as many stupid people on their bullshit.
