Honestly, it’s mind-boggling how the top 1% have us believing their relentless greed is just the norm and that we’re helpless to do anything about it. This is particularly noticeable on platforms like Reddit, where we, the users, are the real value creators and even volunteer our time.

Just a few days ago, during the Reddit protests, the only thing required from us was to log off. However, it seemed that even this small act was too much for some. It’s a stark wake-up call, making you question how and why we don’t take a stand when our rights are truly in jeopardy.

In this day and age, it appears we’re all too engrossed in our personal lives. If it doesn’t directly affect us, it’s shrugged off. This “not my problem” mindset is damaging to us all eventually. It hinders our ability to empathize with each other’s struggles and to unite against common adversities. This isn’t the type of society any of us should want. It’s alarming to see our sense of community dwindling, and it’s genuinely heartbreaking. Maybe I’m just overthinking it, but the large number of people who seem indifferent is truly concerning. This should serve as a wake-up call for all of us. What do you guys think? (Pic not relevant)

    In my opinion the UI is still pretty jank and it makes jt hard to even see relevant posts. Theres a bug right now with the sorting on Hot and Active that prevents you from seeing new posts. I think that has been fixed but it’ll be a little bit before the 0.18 release fixes it

    Also another thing that makes it hard is that I am using jerboa and linking to other instances just crashes the app. People like low barrier to entry, and stuff like this makes it a bit painful to use. The UI jank and bugs will get better in the coming weeks, and once it does, we will probably see a lot more activity.
