It became the only reliable source of information I had. People posted links with a minimal amount of commentary, picking and choosing the best content from other social media networks. They’re not doing it to “build a brand” because that’s not a thing in the Fediverse. It’s too disjointed to be a place to build a newsletter subscription base.

That's where I'm at too. I never spent much time on the bigger subs on Reddit. Mostly spent my time in the special interest/hobby subs. There were some pretty awesome communities in there. Unfortunately, I wandered out of my lane, and I decided to tell some MAGA assclown that he wasn't just licking boots, he was deep throating them. According to Reddit, this was harassment, even though this prick was going around saying Alex Pretti deserved to die. As a result, I was permabanned. Oh well.
