99% of reddit is people saying racist, sexist, or highly inappropriate shit across a variety of highly gross and problematic subreddits.
outside of the GW chicks, the 2% of diy who actually posts projects, and the omg le epic lulz people who post stupid garbage on the defaults.... who would ever want their reddit account connected to them IRL?
Why tech companies keep thinking bending over backwards to get celebrities to post on your platform is a good strategy just because that's what Twitter did (even though they're barely in the black) is beyond me.
And? Twitter could continue to ban bot/propaganda accounts to show theyβre serious about cracking down on this sort of thing and legit users will still continue to leave in droves because theyβre sick of social media over saturation and having their info sold to advertisers.
Publicity through outrage will only get you so far. Eventually people just get tired of it.
I don't code anything more complicated than automation/environment monitoring scripts, my work is too close to the metal for anything else. Trying to customize an application gives me hives.
Sticker programmer work is the least valuable aspect of tech, which is why every hipster hops on board after skimming through ruby on rails documentation. None of that shit would accomplish anything if it weren't for people like me keeping the network path alive.
Until the minute your ISP fucks up an "internal" update and your gateway router's WAN connection is reduced to a long length of copper and plastic and not much more.
Rather than wasting your time with shit like this, why aren't you doing SOMETHING about the extremest white nationalist /fascists on this website and there breeding grounds, aka t_d among thousands others

Will we still see this shit if we're using oldreddit?
1 mrv3 2018-08-09
No. They'll just kill old.reddit.
1 glorica 2018-08-09
Does this mean we can ping retards if theyβre Twitter verified?
Is the night over?
1 voicelesshoodwinker 2018-08-09
Nope.
1 allwordsaredust 2018-08-09
You can @ them on twitter instead.
This is good for dramacoin.
1 glorica 2018-08-09
Exactly what I had in mind. Then we can link the Twitter drama to the sub and just have a cavalcade of nonstop drama.
1 GeauxHouston22 2018-08-09
honest question: who asked for this shit?

Twitter dies the second Trump leaves office
1 -absolutego- 2018-08-09
I'm hoping Trump winning reelection throws the verifieds into such an unmanageable outrage storm Jack just deletes the platform out of frustration.
1 fingerpaintswithpoop 2018-08-09
Fam they still are shrinking.
1 uniqueguy263 2018-08-09
Those followers weren't real

The 2% lost never existed anyway. That being said, they did lose 3 million subscribers this quarter
1 bugslife22112 2018-08-09
That and they can target ads to you more accurately.

TBH I'd fucking kill myself if anyone knew about my dirty little /r/drama habit
1 ChipChippersonAMA 2018-08-09
Or god forbid my /r/familyman habit
1 RichEvansSextape 2018-08-09
People are slightly overreacting, this seems like an extension to more easily start up AMAs using the celebrity's Twitter account.
Which is hilarious considering how reddit has burned their AMA infrastructure to the ground through sheer incompetence.
1 shallowm 2018-08-09
Doesn't this make up the majority of reddit?
1 ChipChippersonAMA 2018-08-09
Well if it speeds up the destruction of this website it may be for the best, I come here way too often.
1 SimplyPoopy 2018-08-09
Are you fucking retarded
1 aX10mAt1CaL1Y 2018-08-09
Are you? Reddit generally is problematic.
1 SimplyPoopy 2018-08-09
Any time someone says this I automatically think of a fat, ugly, middle aged bitch with blue hair. Just knock it off.
1 aX10mAt1CaL1Y 2018-08-09
Are you seriously getting triggered by a word? Sure you're not the fat, ugly, middle ages bitch with blue hair who needs to knock it off?
1 SimplyPoopy 2018-08-09
Yeah, I am. If you say that word youβre a faggot, period.
1 aX10mAt1CaL1Y 2018-08-09
"Why football man not stand up"
1 SimplyPoopy 2018-08-09
I donβt care about that at all. Why are you so terrible at this.
1 aX10mAt1CaL1Y 2018-08-09
But for some reason a simple word gets you all riled up.
1 SimplyPoopy 2018-08-09
Riled up is a bit much, Iβm typing a few words on reddit. Stop being a fag, dude.
1 aX10mAt1CaL1Y 2018-08-09
Which is all I'm doing so stop being a fag yourself
1 GeauxHouston22 2018-08-09
that's ableist and extremely problematic, reported
1 SimplyPoopy 2018-08-09
Thanks for confirming.

It's gonna be a dark day when the admins disable old.reddit.com
1 niggerpenis 2018-08-09
As long as they leave i.reddit.com alone I don't care what they do.
1 forward_dawn 2018-08-09
Reddit has an API, just make your own site. Or a desktop client. Or literally whatever.
1 -absolutego- 2018-08-09
I don't code anything more complicated than automation/environment monitoring scripts, my work is too close to the metal for anything else. Trying to customize an application gives me hives.
1 forward_dawn 2018-08-09
Oh right, rdrama is too autistic to make anything of value
1 -absolutego- 2018-08-09

1 forward_dawn 2018-08-09
Hopefully you die off and take the rest of the field with you. Weβd all be better for it.

You say that like itβs a bad thing
1 CocoNutsOn 2018-08-09
Twitter is for twats but just in case I want to do a AMA in the future, may as well have twitter accounts which marry Reddit Alts.
1 WhiteTearsForFears 2018-08-09
Spez continues his retard quest to kill reddit.
1 Starship_Litterbox_C 2018-08-09
One man's retard is another man's hero.
1 voicelesshoodwinker 2018-08-09
Hey, if he also killed of twatter I would build a monument for the man.
1 ImJustaBagofHammers 2018-08-09
I hope everyone leaves to use Voat in the near future so I can use that website without having to deal with MDEgenerates.
1 Derpus_Contagious 2018-08-09
Lol half the shit on Voat's "front page" is posted by the same dude.
1 ImJustaBagofHammers 2018-08-09
To be fair that's just for the default subverses. There are some good parts of the website that aren't filled with MDEgenerates.

1 Zeriell 2018-08-09
Can't wait for them to make this mandatory in a year or two.
1 bugslife22112 2018-08-09
Meh you can just not use it right?
