- Use distributed, federated services like Lemmy, mastodon etc.
- Support the hosts with our own funds.
- Moderate our own communities.
The second point is the most important. Reddit happened because they are a corporate entity seeking profit. Let’s own our social media platforms by actively contributing funds to them.

- Never add karma or any “aggregate score” like it. It just feeds bad behavior, farmers, and bots.
This is a point that is weird. Like, I knew it happened but at the same time, Reddit isn’t the kind of place that put much importance over an individual account, so I don’t understand what even the point of having a large account karma really was. Outside of a few niche posters like shitty_watercolours or the poem dude and some of the HQGiffers who always made in-jokes about each other, did people really pay attention to a single user account in any meaningful way?
