MX Linux Forum

Thanks for the reminder... I should go there once in a while, don't b/c already have a whole bunch of sites that I check every morning.

We don't have a big subreddit, only about 7K members, but we are still in "top 10%" apparently reddit has a lot of small subreddits.

All i know is I dumped Reddit a while ago, and I think a lot of people are doing, or have done the same. I now especially don't use it anymore since they're now blocking VPN users from the viewing the site in any capacity, so now I don't even look at the site even if it pops up in searches.

Well, that's OK, I guess we'll do without you there...

Talking about dumping, I dumped Facebook 10 years ago :) but I heard there's a vibrant MX community there and I'm happy there is, it's only that I won't read or post there -- which works great for me, but everybody makes their own choices.

I can view the actual reddit site when using a VPN, but it's the free ProtonVPN non full-featured version and I have LibRedirect direct me to Libreddit instances - but again, I can view the actual reddit.com url.
What's Facebook?

Oh yeah, I forgot to say, if you're willing to login, you can still view the site.

@Arnox No, I don't login.

I tend to do the same with Reddit plus numerous group grope (social media) sites (like YT, X, etc). Internet search results tend to vomit more social media junk every year alomg with fewer content useful/ helpful results. (such is the opinion of a cranky old guy)
