should we be discussing reddit less? (self.chat)

Seems like a good portion of the activity in the communities is reddit oriented. If the goal is leaving/hurting reddit, it seems we should be continuing on like it doesn't exist, instead of continuing to drive interest to the site. Thoughts?

Some of us are going through an actual grieving process over losing reddit. That place was my online home for like 15 years. It's the kind of thing that definitely deserves drunk-bar-ranting.

Yeah I think people are underestimating how much time was invested. Imagine if Gmail just up and vanished and you had to use something else after being so invested, ofcourse people are going to be talking about it for ages until the annoyance passes

Yeah, this seems mean. The place turned into a shithole, but I loved that shithole for a long time.
