I reported a bunch of spam-link bots, porn-bots posting CSAM-adjacent stuff, and a slew of stuff that was very obviously and blatantly in violation of Reddit ToS.

All the links/content remained and my account got suspended for “abusing the report function”. Considering the content I reported, it’s a safe guess that Reddit admin and moderation teams benefit from having such material on the site. Not sure how, or why. But their actions seem to indicate something.

Then you look at the controversies Reddit has had… that one dude’s suicide, Ghislaine Maxwell holding a powermod position on front-page subs, the powermod controversy wherein a dozen or so mods had thousands of subreddits under their control.

There’s also been a huge attitude shift. While most of it seems the same, there’s a very strong anti-American presence now that seems to make sure they fit that sentiment into every thread whether it’s justified, related, or completely out of place.

The Reddit algorithms or whatever also seem to love pushing certain topics to the point of stripping it of any/all meaning and turning into propaganda.

Flapping about, feeling morally superior… did you even try to search for an answer or did you just want to virtue signal? Take a look at RIsc, or Arm… or w/e the Chinese just released.

Just a reminder that Spez can go fuck himself.

Regardless of what country “controls” it, Discord is bad for many other reasons as well.

Unless they’re implying that Chinese software will fail and bow down to “western software”, I’m not seeing a link either.
