God fucking damn it.
"User privacy" my ass. This is a pure lock-in play.
Sorry for the swear words. Reddit was _the_ way I got honest reviews about restaurants, products, and damn near everything, but their search engine was horrible and the platform is very clearly built to drive engagement.
I hate what the Internet has become. I guess it's time to go through the book list I've accumulated over the years.
