What's a Reddit?
A piece of shit now
Turddit
Deadit.
Shitit
I've heard it was a popular discussion place people would go to. Even called the front page of the internet because it was the first and best source for compiled news and information. Its CEO had some quotes that showed how important free flow of information was.
"I don't think we should silence people just because their viewpoints are something we disagree with. There is value in the conversation, and we as a society need to confront these issues. This is an incredibly complex topic, and I'm sure our thinking will continue to evolve."
"We are not the thought police. It's not the role of a private company to decide what people can and cannot say."
He was also forward thinking in designing an open forum, controlled by individuals.
"Our approach to governance is that communities can set appropriate standards around language for themselves. Many communities have rules around speech that are more restrictive than our own, and we fully support those rules."
Wait, that sounds more like the Fediverse.
A miserable pile of secrets
A Reddit is when you destroy a social media platform because you're angry with its users. It's a common billionaire or wannabe billionaire move.
A miserable little pile of shitposts. But enough talk... Have at you!
A lot of deleted comments
Must be one of those eReader things.
A featherless biped
