This has been the final nail in the coffin for Reddit for me I think, and I’ve been using it since digg. All in all a net positive to quit it, but the blatant bloodthirsty propaganda and Russophobia is getting to me

Same, it’s really been a massive eye opener for me - can’t even open it anymore.

To be fair I’ve basically only been perusing it out of habit for the past year or so. Really happy to have Hexbear to replace it for my 15 minutes of scrolling a day

Yeah i was doing it out of habit until like 4 years ago I genuinely couldn’t tell what was real engagement and what was just the algorithm/cia/advertisers, so I made a conscious choice to only use the site for niche interests. But now it’s inescapable. I’m seeing idiotic bloodthirsty redditors talking about how the average Russian is dirty and needs to pay in subreddits about fucking music equipment or small video games

Yep, it’s truly painful to see. The sinophobia was what really started me on it, I had the same experience - small niche subs where people just couldn’t post anything without somehow sliding in some racist China shit. It’s everywhere. Apparently America is just a racist ass culture with the sights swinging around wildly, it’s hard to even keep up with who the new target of racist hatred is any given week.

Be nice if we could just lock that hate in on the bougies, then we might get somewhere.

Same. It’s unfortunately a great resource for answering niche questions and stuff. I guess one could still use it for that without engaging in any kind of community there.

Yeah, it’s genuinely been quite shocking to see… there’s little coverage of actual stuff on the ground, endless parroting of the American MSM narrative, and a wild bloodlust. I mean, shit. :sadness-abysmal:

Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember… we’re all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
