Yup that was the life for both my brothers (born in 1945 and 1950, me in 57). They kicked it just in time that is for sure.

When Reddit went public it was scooped up by hedgies and other nefarious actors. Slowly but surely it is changing for the worse. I just got booted from Reddit on a 9 year account (as an added bonus they nuked my other 2 accounts as well even though no posts near time of nukage) for pretty tame (compared to other stuff I have seen) stuff. I predict that Reddit will be indistinguishable from truth social within 5 years or less.

Yuppers.

Already 2025 creators starting to populate upper us government.

As a boomer whose parents (both) were in world war 2, I listened to what the horrors that were perpetrated by the fascists and axis on the daily until I was a teen. I saw shows, testimonials and documentaries that all disappeared in the late 70’s and replaced with tamer stuff. I would rather die than live in a fascist regime.

I call 99% of all media “Corporate Media” as it is owned by all the billionaires and they print what their billionaire overlords tell them to.

Yes I ignored Lemmy on the list thinking oh they are good and mentally omitted it. No longer on Reddit for sure now. I seem to have been IP banned. Create a new account and post the most innocuous post and bam within 5 mins account banned. Rinse, repeat. Gonna fart around with my VPN to see in the next few days.

Yes, I am 67 yrs old. Far as I know I am on a different system (Lemmy) than all those others? Got wiped on Reddit and quit all the other ones years ago. Sorry if I am doing this incorrectly.

I have found it is useless trying to have discourse with them. I just meow at them. It’s fun and confuses them.

I don’t use any of those. Quit Facebook 10 years ago and never really used the others. I just got booted (the account was literally vapourized)off of Reddit after 9 yrs today. Posted a pic of a hat that said is he dead yet. No text just the pic. I don’t care anymore really as once Reddit went on the stock market it was all over anyhoo.
