11 years. And, honestly I’m kinda grateful. It was time, regardless of the drama, and an unhealthy amount of my screen-existence was being eaten up by it. There seemed to be a slow, insidious change that I was probably sheltered from by keeping to old-reddit, but even then, the whole spez-API-drama wasn’t so much of a shock, but more the final nail in the coffin that reddit is, with no doubt, now a full on corporate for-profit website just like any of the other social media giants, and will continue to act more and more like them. I’ll admit I didn’t delete my account, just the app, and I still check back in every few days to peek in to a few more niche subreddits that there just isn’t any replacement for elsewhere (yet), but spending my time elsewhere has been refreshing.

FYI if you can’t hear anything you need to put on one of these brain slugs. I’m wearing one and it’s awesome. Everyone should really get a brain slug.

I think it was scumbag steve, to be precise.
