    I’m witnessing a slow death of my beloved RIF. If they’re killing it, I’m going down with that ship. I think spez solidified my choice with the Q&A.

    I went back to see who was participating in the blackout and who wasn’t. A lot of subreddits aren’t that I had followed. I have been slowly but surely unsubcribing from all subreddits that still have posts barring things like the Ukraine subreddit where it’s obviously really important for that one to still be active.

    Once all that is done… I’m not going to have a reason to go back. I think this is the best way. I may salvage some of my old posts and repost them here where relevant. Then deactivate my account forever.

    I don’t agree with the direction of the internet. I think I need to practice what I preach and this in my opinion is the right way to go about it.

      I’m with you, I’ve been using RiF around a decade now. I’ll probably occasionally use old.reddit if I need help with a google search, but it won’t be something I reflexively check anymore. I hope all the fragmented communities can find each other again on here.
