we’re the product, not the customer. reddit doesn’t own anything of value that we can’t have for ourselves or do for ourselves here, or on other, non-reddit communication networks. they didn’t want us to leave, they wanted us to change behavior to match their vision. instead, we’re here, having this conversation away from their influence. we won this small victory in a grander fight against hypercapitalism. the real challenge is that the banks choose winners and losers
Staying put and giving Reddit money is the real loss. We fundamentally disagree about what the fight is and what winning looks like. Also I don’t know where you’re reaching your conclusion that there’s no technical information here. We have wikis, we have discussions, we have high quality interactions. But the core essence of how we think we take the power back on the internet is different, and we’re not ever going to overcome this, so I think this is the end of the conversation
Maybe if I was the only one that left there would be some logic to your statement. Fact is a lot of people are leaving the corporate owned entities. On top of that I am actively advocating to people I know to leave them as well and taking the time to introduce and even provide support to them to make the move.

So Digg used to think as well.

Like hell it isn’t a victory. You love Reddit so much, get the fuck outta here

When I say a lot, I am referring to my 5 imaginary friends.
