    We all get that reddit is doing this intentionally right?

    Like, all the nerds (hi it’s me) that are mad about the changes can make angry art, coordinate to really “send a message,” the event wraps up, everyone goes “wow we really did something here.” and then reddit moves on with it’s life.

    /r/place is the “using change dot org to send a message to powerful people” of reddit.









  • Fantastic read. I saw some of myself in there for sure.

    there was a specific, generational moment that attracted a bunch of people like me into the software industry. It occurred during the brief window between home computers becoming widely available and their becoming sealed airtight by platform holders. For a fleeting moment, computers were simultaneously accessible and scrutable during a necessary but temporary stage in the maturation of information technology.

    I mean damn.
