Do you rent a flat or a house and, if so, where?
Do you live with family or flatmates?
Are you trying to buy a home? How's that going?
I remember ten years ago sharing beers with admins who visited London. Back when there was a push for developing local communities and Global Reddit Meetup Day. There was good vibes and a feeling of mutual respect.
I met my wife through Reddit.
I still have so much affection for the site in my heart.
It's just wild to me how much has changed.
Really glad I never got that Snoo tattoo now.
Jesus, this is escalating fast. I never actually thought admins would go to such crazy lengths. Such pathetic desperation!
Hi all, as someone who founded r/LondonSocialClub (a place for IRL meet-ups in London) along with a few friends many moons ago, the current clusterfuck at Reddit threatens the community where I met my wife and loads of my closest friends.
There is no appetite at the moment for our inclusive subreddit to move off the grid to the fediverse, but I wanted to put a stake in the ground, just in case.
Edit:
I understand why this is bothersome for some people, but I think this is a reasonable action to take:
-
The community name is unique. I don't think it's plausible that another user would want to use this name except to associate themselves with our pre-existing community.
-
This isn't intended to prevent people from starting another community with the same or similar aim. I'd be delighted to see c/LondonMeetups or anything else pop up. I just don't want them to use our name. More people hanging with people is always good.
Otherwise, I plan to stick around this instance. I'm pretty done with Reddit now, and I hope in the future many other people feel the same way.
