Been using Eternity for quite some time. I like it, it’s clean and modern, but I get a lot of bugs. Last week I couldn’t see posts, then, I couldn’t comment or save posts, and then posts were loading but I was seeing posts in communities I wasn’t subscribed to. Sometimes logging out and logging in again helps.

While I cannot think of a better decentralization example, the lack of source code makes me worry this solution would not satisfy the open source software (OSS) criteria.

Not true, I could set up a WordPress blog and start writing reviews. As long as it stays a niche thing I share with a couple of friends online, that “review platform” won’t be gamed or flooded by fake reviews.

My point being that closed “publishing” instances can be reliable.

Fuck, I am getting older.

I created my account during high school, now I am 25.

To be honest, I am grateful for the journey. I found Reddit when I needed it, I was spending too much time on 9gag and wanted to find something more productive to waste my time on. Reddit was, and still is, more than that.

TwoXChromosomes and gonewildstories are two subs that literally redefined my person.

I haven’t deleted my account, nor do I plan to. But, I haven’t used Reddit since my birthday on June 12th. I have been into the idea of the fediverse long before I first read about it, and I am here for the long run.
