This is the conundrum for users of Reddit or X. There’s so much content in the mega-sites that ya’ll feel it’s worth supporting some of the worst people who own the worst companies.
“But I can’t find this entertainment elsewhere!” only goes so far when engagement means helping line the pockets of our abusers.
Newsflash: using a platform increases engagement.
What you do is, indeed, up to you. But don’t pretend continuing to use Reddit or birdsite or whatever doesn’t benefit them and proliferate the exact thing you are seeking an alternative for.
You ask if I’m here for entertainment? Yep. Because I don’t value entertainment over supporting someone like Spez and Google AI.
