MODERATORS
I always said, redditors are good at complaining, but do nothing else.
r/workreform is one of the most popular subs, yet reddit's userbase can't even protest online properly.
Your work reform is never coming, plebbit. just saying.
Sadly, I think this is widely true about people in general. Actually commiting to change is so much harder than expressing dissatisfaction with your current state.
except this is not "I gotta threaten to quit my job if it doesn't improve", "stop eating meat", or "switch to a bicycle instead of a car".
This is a "I gotta open a different app and start lurking there daily and occasionally post".
Switching to lemmy took me an hour. How difficult is this protest, really?
I mean, how much hope is there for humanity with that level of indifference/apathy.
