    These schemes all have the same problem that reddit and Twitter have: they need me more than I need them.

    This sentiment comes off a lot like “it won’t affect me, I don’t care”.

    Like, it doesn’t really matter whether you decide not to use these websites anymore. Nobody should have to put up with this shit. That’s why we take a stand against it.

      Exactly. There’s a good reason why we don’t, for example, allow people to sell themselves into slavery, even if they “consent” to it!
