TBF, the emergency exit is still behind that wall, you just can't access it

I always felt "subreddit" was silly. I call them communities, even on reddit and that word works for me.

The real win is having a viable place that people can go instead of Reddit, to force Reddit to compete and improve itself in general. (or have a place people can go if Reddit ultimately shuts down)

To that end, I would stay right here, and then someday if Reddit improves enough, maybe consider using both.

Yeah that must be it, always making subrabbits

Over just the last couple of days, kbin has gotten so much better, I honestly haven't even thought about checking that other site what's it called? r-something? Can't remember

It all comes down to whether or not the fediverse gets big enough to be a real threat to reddit. If so, reddit will suddenly become a lot more interested in improving their experience. I doubt they'll reverse course on the API, but we'll probably get some perfuse apologies and a real attempt to improve their app and website.

June 12th won't change their course. But I think there will be a much bigger mass migration starting on July 1, and that may be what starts to move the needle.
