personally i'm loving the fact that they're laughing at us in the mistaken belief that this can't work and we'll be back there before the end of the month, yet after a bit of lag and a couple memory overruns combined with some utterly HILARIOUS glitches they still don't realise that the system survived its' stress test and is in the process of being upgraded and expanded so that it can take the rest of the load (i'v heard that 20% of traffic has moved over, which is enormous) by the end of next week, we're very easily capable of funding it entirely ourselves, and we know it

right now i'm having difficulty sitting still, waiting in eager anticipation for the horror to cross their faces when they realise that they have nobody left except for unironic trump voters. rekon it might even be the very last piece of entertainment i might get from the website

I'm surprised there is strong support to the protest. But obviously there will always be people who lick boots.

spez: third party apps are making money off our platform using our data for free!

Mods: .............. Yup.

It's peek, not peak.

The same thing will happen with Reddit users that has happened for decades now in the digital world.

The ones that start to care about their freedom, privacy, ecological/sociological impact, and consumer rights will most likely move off of those closed and controlled platforms either completely, or replace them with better platforms.

The majority of folks either don't care, or aren't willing to give up the conveniences/benefits give up the toxic corpo platforms.

We need to focus on making our platforms better all the time, raising awareness for things like FOSS and consumer rights, and making sure we are as helpful and welcoming as we can be.
