I think it’s a sign of a very niche mental illness that I keep laughing at Linux references in the wild.
I still lurk. I expected the slow decline and change in character that others here have predicted.
What I have seen in the last 8 days floored me. Continues to floor me. Reddit is already a zombie platform. Front page is week-old posts. Bot generated reposts from 2 weeks ago.
And astroturf posts trying to spin the whole thing as a “what was that blip?” Or “glad those whiners are gone”
It happened so much faster than I expected.
This, of course, comes as a surprise to no one.
