Honestly, for being a meme, this is one of the best explanations of the Reddit situation so far and gives some great insights. Good job!
Obviously the community shown dying in the second panel is /r/trees.
The most sweeping epic meme I've ever read.
I really enjoyed hearing "enshittification" in the voice of Ian McKellen as Gandalf in my mind 👏👏
Someone will probably enjoy this, but I bailed like 4 panels in and there were literally hundreds more panels to read.
The comic basically says:
Users: Please run Reddit decently and do stuff people have told you to do for so long.
u/spez: Fuck you. We need to become profitable and to do that the API has to be shut down.
Users: Then, with the enshittification of this website, with the horrible management of once a great land, Reddit will crumble when the IPO approaches and investors get their hands on it. So just go to Lemmy where none of this is happening lmao
I made the correct decision to bail.
Switch the last panel to ActivityPub to include Kbin and this is truly an epic and sad tale, but not without hope.
