Reddit destroying third party apps was the last straw for me. So, I hopped on kbin and some Lemmy instances. Reddit continues to degrade, and Reddit mods are annoying.

RIP Aaron Swartz (Reddit removed him as a founder).

I prefer to talk specifics about issues rather than adopt labels. Labels are often victim of whatever the other person thinks the label means. Once the labels come out, they can be conversation enders.

I still have a lot to learn and at times it's overwhelming. I'm a socialist.

Mostly everything. Poverty prevents most leisurely activities, and can provoke depression, which compounds and prevents one from even wanting to do things they've traditionally enjoyed. Vicious cycle.
