I went searching for something today and instinctually clicked on a reddit link. Fortunately the sub was dark for the protest anyway, but it’s crazy how ingrained in me it is to go to reddit for everything.

Unfortunately now we’re going to have to get used to clicking on those clickbait tech articles like “TOP 10 FACEBOOK ALTERNATIVES 2023” to find information, and weed out the crappy blogs.

    I’m not sure why you think you need to avoid Reddit at cost to you finding the information you’re after.

    If the information you want is on Reddit, why wouldn’t you want to read it?

      Reddit blackout. A part of the protest comes from the subreddit mods that made the subs private, the other part comes from the user not using reddit at all during these days

        I don’t get why you’d choose not to read information you want where you know it exists over this.
