I mostly will miss being able to google something and adding "reddit" to my search to search for public opinion on day to day issues and problems.
This is probably one of the biggest losses. Reddit was my go-to for finding actual answers to questions I had. Without it, you end up with nothing but sponsored articles that don't really answer the question.
Before this entire fiasco, I didn’t even realise googling “____ Reddit” was such a global phenomenon. But I also didn’t realise just how much I relied on these surprisingly specific answers to just about everything until now that it’s gone. Damn… I’ll miss it.
I’m with you. It’s going to suck losing out on so much random information. Reddit was my go to for those obscure questions I had but we survived before Reddit and will find a way to survive without it.
