Forever could online be a few more years for them. And good, l hope they enjoy my tales of 7 day coke benders.

Being wrong at some point is inevitable, if tried to pretend that I believed I was right I would have been destroyed by the people who actually know the subject. And made myself look like an ass. I also found it funny when reading how many people corrected me.

I can only be what I am.

You are appreciated

This scenario basically sums it all up.

Words driven by fear. Learn all the words in the world, my bet is you freeze in the face of opportunity. I wish you, happiness and sorry that they took if from you.

That was my next question… is it inevitable? Like the fall of every major power in human history. At some point they break.

Yes listen, I got it wrong, I took art instead of history and my knowledge of politics and such terms is limited. I generally get my ideas across with emotion and action, but I can’t help admire those who can articulate themselves through words. I also sense the passion in your response, you care about these things, and I’m sure you’ve destroyed a few opponents in a debate.

I like that we both exist, and you shared something that is useful to me. Thank you.

Second part: any suggestions for an alternative to lemme.ee thanks for letting me know. Will I lose all my data?

this person is a refugee - are you referring to me? The analogy is perfect if you were.

I should actually go see when I joined to verify, but reading through the comments I joined well into the decline already . Social media didn’t grab me like the rest of the world, I didn’t like the lack of privacy and, joined Facebook like 10 years in or so, because I went traveling and wanted to connect with my family. I stumbled upon Reddit basically.

I had searched a few forums for some answers to random things that Google directed me to, but other than that knew nothing about what was attractive about them. I immediately found the real life experience advice on subjects from normal people very interesting and unique, that’s what got me to create an account. Then I stayed for the subreddits of the things I was in to and contributing felt good.

I really liked the fact that you could almost find a subreddit about anything, 5 people in it with the last comment being 5years old, but still it was amazing to me. The authenticity that people allowed themselves to show ( some were definitely lies) but i felt like I was engaging with people on a different level than real life, small talk BS. Anyway I’m probably older than you and if you’ve read this whole thing then bless you, I’m probably just using this as therapy 😂

Please scroll up to read my acceptance of failure to correctly identify the name of the crappy thing that Reddit is doing. Thanks for the correction, and I’m glad you could still figure out what I meant dispite my use of correct terminology 🤝 I’m really good at other things though haha

 

I found Reddit about 6 years ago, took a little while to understand what it was about but when I finally got it, I felt like I had found the best place on the internet. Somewhere I could be my true self without being myself. Every time I logged in, I felt free. Like solo roaming the streets of a new city in a foreign country for the first time. Intellectual conversation, assistance on vague problems, sharing life experiences, advice, watching porn you didn’t know existed, and then slipping out the back door when you were done.

As many here already know, those days are gone. The freedom is gone, it feels like a communist regime and it seems that their success is their downfall. The entire personality of Reddit has changed and will never come back, it even shows in the users. The community is broken, unauthentic and the Truth has left the conversation. Freedom is dead over there. What a shame. It’s like my favorite bar burnt down.

But the thing that really gets me is that it didn’t just change, it became the exact opposite. It has become the exact reason why someone built it, in the first place.

I read that it’s attracting the most new users of all the social apps. Best performing app, which means the end is near. Soon it will just be a limb of the pretend society that we used to hide from behind the walls of Reddit. And for some reason, I just want to see it burn.

 

New to this, starting to understand how it works sort of. I am looking for a place to chat to people, are live text chat room communities a thing here? Or do people chat through comments on posts? Not quite understanding that aspect yet.
