What a fucking disingenuous post. I can go to reddit now, and most rising posts are about things that interest me, because i subscribe to subreddits that match my interests. If you subscribe to Crypto scam subreddits, you can't go here and whine about it. Curate your timeline, just like you need to do here.

I'm so sick off all the FUD about reddit. Yes, the reddit management are basically pure evil, I agree. But reddit itself was barely affected by the exodus.

Yet, you are here contributing to the discussion about it.

The only people I've ever seen use the term "FUD" have been cryptobros lol

Why so much salt at people hating on crypto?

For the record, "FUD" had a long history before crypto was even invented. In fact, in an Internet context I'd say it was much more closely associated with Microsoft nonsense than with crypto nonsense.

True, but only for now. There's a single leading alternative as a result of the exodus, and theoretically you can only enshittify something so much before people start to leave en mass.

The crypto and buy GME spam from the groupthink "investment" subs was one of my biggest annoyances on Reddit. I used to love some of the investment subs, they got utterly ruined by the GME spam. Every other post is about trying to pump and dump some short squeeze stock.

The saddest part is so many of them don't even realize it's just a bunch of pump and dumps and hold the bag on stocks forever. There's still so many of them screaming about how GameStop or AMC is a good investment. Failing outdated business models, good investments because people short the stock. Sound logic.

I dont use reddit anymore but still have it installed. The amount of chat invites i get per day from bots is insane.

I used to browse by new and once you filtered out all the crypto scams it was usually pretty fun and diverse. I do the same on Lemmy now, but there's a lot less stuff to filter. Haven't used Reddit since the API announcement and never looked back, though.
