Damn. Just leave. 'Never forget' is not really a sentiment that fits. It's just a shitty website, not the fucking Twin Towers.

"We need morons so we can exploit their labor." -Reddit

The income gap between executive and median salary employees is around 32,000%. I guess the question is, what planet do you live on where a system that allows for this kind of inequity is okay?

I want revenge.

You want to hear something fucked up? After nearly 10 years in Reddit, one day I suddenly started receiving daily death threats and HEAVY bot spamming on this tiny little sub I was moderating. So naturally I reached out to the mod support sub for help. Then this bot/spammer started flooding my post on their sub which actually felt great—they were getting a taste of what I had been dealing with. The post ended up with well over 500 comments from this piece of shit. So instead of help me out, you know what they did? They banned me from the mod support subreddit.

I had a conversation with one of the admins who basically told me they don't care about death threats. Furthermore, this spammer had also admitted to murdering people. Again the admin didn't care. Till the day I left they were unable to stop this one person from creating hundreds, maybe even thousands of accounts and spamming tons of people including myself. A billion dollar company can't even control their own product. The bots literally own Reddit. Lol. Fuck them, all of them who stayed.

Fuck Reddit and fuck everyone running it. During my last months there I was subject to continuous harassment and explicit death threats from one specific troll. When I brought this to the admins, they told me pound sand. They didn't do a fucking thing. Nothing.

I'm very tempted to put together a dossier of all these interactions and start sending emails to marketing departments of the most common reddit advertisers and make sure they understand the platform they are using to sell shit to people.

Billion dollar companies can pay their employees $2 an hour...

How is it that such a shitty site/corporation has continued to maintain a grip on this market? Why aren't we inundated with viable alternatives?

The sad thing is that we don't even need to use violence. We have the power to bring this country to a halt with nothing more than a well organized revolt.

Unfucking believable. Not a single mention of the actual problem in that article. Not a single mention of who is to blame.

Reddit doesn't actually own any of the content, right? Neither do any of the contributors? Seems like a good way to fuck Reddit.

This was one of my favorite communities on Reddit. It has become complete bullshit fucked up trash now, and I'm happy to be out of there.

This has been my daily stuff all month minus the pencil which remains on my desk.

What are your top news communities here. It sounds pathetic, but I got to nearly 99% of my news from Reddit.

[-] DrTautology@lemmy.world 16 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Fair enough. Officially I was banned for making a post that violated the subs rules, which I never did. In reality I was banned because a mod didn't like my attitude. I made a post asking about union materials, but I noticed that the post never went up, so I sent a mod mail asking if there was something wrong with my post. What I got back was a snarky remark about the mods not being bots and they have to manually approve every post and how dare I ask that question again and waste their precious time. To my surprise I made a post about a year ago and it didn't get approved after 7 hours so I sent a similar inquiry. Naturally I had completely forgotten about this interaction, so I thank the mod for being petty enough to look it up and mention it. Basically a case of give snark get snark, and they didn't like it and decided to power trip. That's the whole story.

Are the same petty mods running this show? If so, please ban me immediately. I don't see how you can reconcile claiming to fight labor exploitation while at the same time giving away your labor for free to a billion dollar company.

Done with Reddit's bullshit, and happy to check this out as it seems to be popular. Any apps that people would recommend for this platform?
