For what it's worth: KiA2 on Reddit is basically completely dead (archive.is)

I know everyone (rightfully) hates Reddit, but this is pretty sad, in my opinion. I happened to check in on this, and was pretty surprised with just how inactive it was.

Our own mods is in revolt against us, but we're still (much!) more active than our Reddit parent.

Their "hot" sorting goes back to nineteen days...ours goes back to one.

They absolutely strangled themselves. It didn't have to be this way.

IT. DIDN'T. HAVE. TO. BE. THIS. WAY.

Reddit is shit for a lot of other reasons now regardless of retarded mods, rules, and other shit. They keep redoing the site UI and killing off features that previously saw a lot of use, or simply worked better.

Their video embeds were atrocious. I simply gave up trying to watch any embedded vids there because the little blue orb would move along the play bar but the actual display wouldn't fucking change!

The Friends Tab no longer exists.

Opening images to new browsers can't be done without third party apps because attempting to do so just opens the same page again but now displaying the image you didn't want displayed that way in the first place!

Collapsing comment chains is like trying to throw invisible darts at an invisible board at times because sometimes clicking in alignment with a username works, but sometimes it doesn't!

Most of the changes were probably done because various retards thought it would "drive engagement" and make the site more money, which it probably never did ever anyway. The only reason it doesn't get supplanted in the same way DIGG did is because startups are strangled now so it's all but impossible without "fuck you money", servers that can within withstand DDOS abuse inside a sun, and other preventative measures that will tell various legislators to go pound sand. In other words like many pirate sites they end up being needing hosted on .su domains in Russia.

Majority of the issues you are having are fixed using OLD reddit (old.reddit.com).

The UIs and interface are so bad that if OLD did not exist, I would never go back there again.

Meant to mention that, didn't they kill old.reddit and other things? I'm sure I saw a thread about it here some time ago.

They tried to, got a riot, brought it back and it still works.

Not to mention that as of late I keep getting a message that blocks me when I visit the new website because it thinks I'm a VPN.

Blocking any possible VPN traffic is the only way they can actually keep people banned. They only want trannies using the site, fuck em.

Haha, something similar to me while using the steam overlay to look up some answers and it's usually a reddit post depending on obscurity, but now it doesn't load the page and leaves a message saying to login (which of course doesn't/won't work). So now I go with the next suggestion and it won't be long before reddit loses even more traffic from other users in the same situation.

Their video embeds were atrocious.

Honestly one of the worst things to happen to the Internet. A lot like twitter videos. You think they could make a video hosting service like imgur so ppl can link directly to vids but no, everything is in service of the subreddit format and forces you to go to their shitty communities to watch.

The new board designs were probably designed to minimize server loads or something. Almost all of the comments are collapsed.

Yeah. KIA2 was dying due to the fact that they were pretty much under attack left and right since the start of the Biden years, Slowly withered away in a war of attrition.

KIA1 is still technically going strong, but there are several people who are still speaking out against the mods for their questionable policy choices even though they ostensibly care about the sub not getting nuked off the face of reddit, or simply because they accuse too many posts of being off topic. I have to wonder if the only reason reddit has not banned KIA from there at all is because it would start to give the appearance that they are shutting out people they don't want.

It's a controlled opposition group or something. Used for marketing research and other things.

KIA1 cucks to the admins literally any time they ask. Banning them would likely prevent future people from even pretending to play along with their humiliation ritual, and, instead of getting the large, controlled group to self censor, break containment and their ability to easily watch and control the large mass of people.

Its a perfect trap, you get everyone to slowly cuck themselves to "stay alive" that eventually the cucking becomes their default state.

You have one faggot whose only contribution to KIA1 is post, "Errm, like, why should I care?!" on anything remotely off-topic. Even shit like the Oberlin bakery scandal doesn't escape his steely, autistic gaze.

David-me's cat had it planned out like this all along. He was mad for some pussy and that kitty knew it.

Once the management was removed from his fragile effeminate hands the real faggots got to work and tried to ass rape anyone with a braincell.

It was just early adoption tranny jannies trying to muster their own stance on an otherwise friendly place looking to do right.

They took the compassion of folk always willing to give an opinion a try and domestically abused everyone in their commune.

You know the types; Russian Deadpool and Contrapoints kind of folk.

I'm just curious as to how many young minds they recruited to Nazism through their antics. I'm sure a whole bunch of ConsumeProduct wouldn't have found their way there if it wasn't for the bozos on half-KiA flexing their tiny peckers as if they were anything other than there to clean up any sabotage by their kin in Antifa colours.

A few of them managed to break away. I don't know if they could ever save face but they show up here every now and then.

I wonder if they fantasise about any school shootings they might have inspired through their shoddy authoritarianism?
