It was always a bit of a pipe dream to think we could draw enough users to have a notable impact, because the majority of people just don’t care. Plain and simple. Fine with me, they can have their little racist narwhal, and I’ll be here reading bitter rants for amusement.

I agree lightly on not deleting posts, but probably because that account holds 10+ years of my life. I also have a post that people follow up with me on once or twice a year because it is in relation to a difficult to get book relating to severe depression. A big part of me feels wrong taking a resource away from vulnerable people looking for help.

I still check specialized subreddits when I need specific information, and I check for any messages to see if someone needs a hand. I nearly completely lessened my contribution to a company I no longer respect, that’s a good enough for me.
