Last I checked, old.reddit had about 2% of the users. So yeah, it'll be shut down whenever they get around to it, I'd imagine. Whenever they add something that breaks it, it'll be gone.
Yeah I think that's the thing, they haven't done anything to/with it. Once they do something that doesn't work on it, they'll go "oh deary me. Welp, better put it out of its misery" and shut it down.
Before I gave up on reddit completely, I was getting lots of 429 errors. Although asking around, some were, some weren't. Still not sure they weren't targeting me - apparently I hit their radar and they ban my accounts whenever they figure out it's me (I just want to mod in my local subreddit, I've slowly disengaged from everything else). heh
They target me for violations that are not violations, used to be I could get 3 months out of an account before a second violation, my last new one I got a violation within the first week for something that wasn't even close. This is like the us administration pressuring them. Betcha.
they banned me for violations on my "other accounts."
I don't have any other accounts.
you know when they give you that message, its thier AI just autobanning and just send an automatic message to your qaccount.
Also what likely happen as well, i found out in another forum, is they lump accounts together in a sub and banned them in bulk(and attribute all these account as similar, same users)
😠😠 (scowling at reddit, not at you)
Unlike other countries we do not have any legal rights to fair enforcement of the rules, so they do not bother. What we do have, is the government telling them to fuck users that piss off them and their pals for other reasons. Israel obviously but others as well.
Silicon Valley is a rigged game, they are parasites,
well, it's a private platform; their sandbox, their rules. It would be nice if they could enforce them equitably, though.
What the fuck are you talking about? We should have rights to fair enforcement of rules in Social media, which should be regulated as utility.
Well, sure, but reddit (and FB, and Insta, and discord, and bluesky and mastadon and twitter and just about everything else out there, probably including Lemmy) are privately owned. Their sandboxes. Now, something like IRC or Usenet (which I still miss) is another matter.
