Funny, I’m seeing zero lag or hiccups on reddit.

Oh, wait - LOL, I’m not on fucking reddit anymore, no wonder I’m not seeing anything. Problem and solution all in one go.


Ooooo- that’s a good one! They should require a full scan of a verification document like a RealID drivers license or passport.


  1. Get rid of old.reddit (im not count that - it’s low hanging fruit)

  2. Block web access on mobile.

  3. Require non-VoIP SMS for signup and login

  4. Lock all content behind a loginwall, Pinterest/(& Twitter?) style

  5. Lock replies and posts behind a paid tier

  6. Lock content more than x months old behind a paid tier

  7. Eliminate all NSFW content


I’ll say it every time: it’s their platform, their servers, their choice. However, we owe them nothing. If they want to go it alone, we need to let them. Let them hire paid moderators and we should delete our content so they have to create their own.

We built the communities there, we can do it again elsewhere. We have the expertise and the desire.


Calling him evil is giving him too much credit. I think incompetence and gross negligence better cover it.
