We live in the UK. She didn’t go any further than this. I got her to download TOR and use the “old.Reddit” trick to bypass this so it was only mildly infuriating for her in the end

    Reddit isn’t worth it any more IMO, It’s all just downvoting and moaning over everything. Yes that happens here but at least people seem to talk more.

      Left 2 1/2 years ago, whenever I’m forced back because of some tech question I see the constant anger and anxiety in the comments. It may be smaller here but goddamn if it’s not more pleasant

      Even worse, it’s all just corporate and nation-state shill accounts. They’re the only ones willing to put up with all the bullshit required to post.

        I know they say half of Reddit is fake but I’m willing to bet it’s more, they can’t be be real people with some of the stuff they come out with.
