Ive been on Reddit for 10 to 15 years. Its always been a strange place but ive never seen anything like what's going on at the moment.

• weird rules (like 'Luigi') being applied system-wide without being communicated
• automated actions applied to individual users site-wide, like allowing them to engage but preventing them from creating posts anywhere
• over zealous mods. I'm assuming a lot of mods got sick of it and left over the last few years and those doing the work are under experienced. Or maybe just AI. Its possible.
• GPTs engaging in posts and comments for training
• agents from hostile governments agitating and spurring on political discussions that favour their agenda.

So yeah I'm giving up on it now, its just no fun anymore.

I wasn't critising, I was just asking "where are the notifications"

Big nostalgia feels. The internet was so good back then.

Before she passed my Nan had chronic arthritis. She had many joint replacements (both hips, a knee, shoulder, pins in her wrists etc) and without medication life was a misery.

One thing she said gave her genuine relief was acupuncture, and she wasn't into pseudoscience at all. Maybe is was a placebo effect and it was expensive but it was worthwhile for her.
