Tell me something about you. What things do you like? Any interesting hobbies?
"Do things without her asking (make meals, clean)"
I can't emphasize this enough.
When I had a miscarriage my husband took care of everything around the house. Literally everything. For one week I only had to worry about myself. I had 24 hours a day to do wathever I needed in that moment. No cleaning, cooking, feeding the cats, not having to remember any chores that needed to be done. That was the best he could have done and I was so thankful for it.
After one week i started working again and slowly helping out more and more until thing went back to normal.
Being able to only worry about myself for a whole week helped so much with my heeling.
Because if you humiliate a delusional, crazy narcisst, he will not just give up. He will double-down. And this crazy narcisst has atomic weapons.
I stopped using reddit after spez's AmA. If all of this would have been handled in a more mature and open way, I would probably have moved to the reddit app, complained about it for a while, but kept usind reddit. But after what happened in the last weeks, reddit is no longer something I want to be associated with.
For lack of a better description, I simply don't 'like' reddit anymore. It's like a friend who treated you like shit.. Sure, you could still go to a party together and have fun, but it's just not quite the same anymore.
It's not so much about what they did, most people understand reddit has to make money at some point. It's the how that is driving people away imho. At least it is for me.
I don't think they will lose a lot of users on 1st of July. But some moderators will leave, others will continue with shitty tools that make their job hard. Overall, there will be more spam and more rule-breaking comments. Whether it will be bad enough to make people leave the site at some point, I don't know.
“We’ll no longer comment on hearsay, unsubstantiated claims, or baseless accusations from The Verge. We’ll be in touch as corrections are needed.” In the absence of corrections, then, you can assume Reddit believes none are necessary.
Lol, you have to love that last sentence.
They did have a toilet behind a small curtain and they would play music while it was being used. They were encouraged to use it as little as possible. So, yeah, OP could be making a joke about that.
Or it's someone going on a camping trip who doesn't want/can't use public toilets.
You're in the wrong community(magazine?) if you're tired of people talking about reddit.
Mods spent countless hours on building those communities. They still care too much to just leave. There's still some hope left I guess.
I had reddit premium although I used a third party app. I wanted to support the platform. I spent so much time on it and really liked the way reddit worked.. being centered around communities and giving them the power to have their own rules.
I canceled my subscription a week ago and will not go back. Needless to say, this isn't a company I want to have any of my money.
At this point it's just one power move following the other. Mods don't have much left to loose, so who gives anymore. Spez on the other hand is a CEO with the conflict management skills of a 4 year old.
Fully agree.
Also, I saw several subs who asked their members if they should join the blackout, so it's not really fair to say mod decided top down.
That post by the mods on r/pics is hilarious.
It is! Hello fellow kbinian!
Any idea how many users we have?
Right?! Can you believe there were people who used reddit for less than an hour a day?!! 🙂
