For me it feels like breaking up with someone after many years. At the same time, I feel a bit dirty mentioning the name in the post title.

I’m not 100% hating reddit right now, though I do hate them a lot. So not deleting my >10yo account or anything…but I do recognize that this is near the end.
The default app is garbage. I’m someone who likes my feed and interaction set up EXACTLY to my liking. So losing any customization, etc is just going to make me like it less, use it less, etc.
But I know that eventually, once they have control over how you interact with Reddit, it will only be a matter of time until it looks like Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter: ad-filled, “suggested content” GARBAGE. I honestly can’t use any of those sites/apps anymore they’re such cluttered wastelands, I don’t know how people stand it.
So I guess less heartbroken, and more like dread as I know the enshittification of reddit is just getting started…
