I have always felt exactly the same way. I almost never posted or commented on Reddit for the same reason, constantly worried about negative or aggressive responses. Didn’t have to spoons to always spend ages typing and re-typing a comment to make sure it came across exactly as I wanted it to and add something of as much value as possible x___x
I like the philosophy of beehaw and hope that it will help me start getting over this mental blocker. :)
OK, third time trying to post this comment after my previous two never went through 🥲
I’ve seen a lot of people predict that this would be their next move if the blackouts continued. It’s sad to see them actually begin with the threats though :/
I’m wondering if this is a sort of desperation move because of advertisers looking at removing spending from reddit if things continue - starting to put the screws on the mods. :( Particularly since they say advertisers would start thinking about moving away if things stayed dark for a couple of weeks.
I don’t know, I’m heading to bed, rewritten this three times and I’m not a good speaker, so apologies for it not being very coherent! 😅
Anyway, still many shames on reddit. I hope the blackouts continue so that advertisers leave. Booooo reddit booooo.
