Hacker News Reader

Left reddit during the API fiasco. HN replaced only part of reddit's niches for me. I tried using Lemmy for the other parts but it seems its federation model just gave more power to exactly the kind of moderators that made me dislike Reddit in the first place.

Same. Left then. And then when the AI training drama came along I found a script that edited all my posts then emptied them then deleted them.

I was amazed how many people on HN get very pissy when hearing about that, and act almost as if you have an obligation to keep that content up (much like Stack when they started limiting people’s ability to delete their own posts…)
