I was just browsing a thread on c/nfl looking for new mods. There were multiple 12+ year Redditors there offering to help.

Got me wondering. There are 14,000 of us in this community. How many of us are ten year plus users who have just had enough?

Edit: I didn’t expect this post to be as poignant as it became. There are so many of you… I can’t reply to everyone. I’m an 11 year user and have modded something like 150 subs over the years. I’m really sad too, but I’m finding that lemmy has most of the content I’m looking for, just needs more comments.

The API was a big blow, but removing awards on past posts and deleting coin balances is really dumb.

      Yep. Would have gladly paid $10 a month for Gold had it included API access for RiF (only fair, since I’m skipping the ads).

      But noooooooo. Reddit didn’t want my money, evidently. So, after 11 years of a VERY active account (made or commented on 10-15k posts over that time), I deleted and left.

      It’s fine. Lemmy stretches that itch to “scroll” something. And I can use whatever damn app I want.
