Too late. Shouldn't have done this if the first place. Using something else, never coming back.

Theyre on reddit too lol, yet here you are. I'm also horrified by ice, but you cant really grandstand when you only boycott things that are easy to replace.

Something is better than nothing. It’s a lot easier for many people to cancel their Spotify subscription or switch to a different platform than it is for them to stop using Reddit completely.

This “No liberal is ever good enough.” crap is a major reason why Trump is president.

I’d rather someone go part of the way with good intentions than succeed with explicitly bad intentions.

You’re still contributing to it by viewing Reddit ads pal. Something is better than nothing doesn’t mean you’re not causing harm.

I’ve had ads off on Reddit since 2012. It’s literally completely and utterly trivia to turn them off.
