Look, the only way this protest is gonna get anywhere is if there's a legit ALTERNATIVE to Reddit. Let's face it.
Discord? Come on, it's a hot mess for browsing content. It's way too easy to miss stuff from other channels. Reddit makes it a breeze to find this content cause you can just upload clips/gameplay or a content piece.
And good luck trying to navigate Discord to upload these clips. There's no upvote incentive, so why bother? So no, Discord ain't a replacement for Reddit. All this blackout on the sub is doing is cutting down on the CS2 chatter, and that ain't good for the game.
And don't even get me started on Kbin. It's an even worse alternative to Reddit than Discord, if you can believe it. So, no, Kbin ain't the answer either. We gotta do better, period.
kbin is extremely promising. Patience is required with this though.
Not hating the platform. I am missing the community, the rants, the trash talk, the takes and what not.
Because it isn't as big as reddit yet, hence we need patience, reddit didn't get built overnight either sadly :(
