    once the boomers get there and start liking it, that’s when you know it’s about to reach peak and crash hard. my parents are talking about reddit. case in point.

      In contrast to the others, Reddit decided to kill itself off before most Boomers have even heard of it:-).

        The boomers I know haven’t found reddit yet so there is still time. It’s not that boomers are on a platform, it’s when boomers like my parents get there that shit starts to spiral out.

          There are a lot of Boomers trickling into Reddit, and they are killing it even faster with mass reporting people.

          They go into subs that shit on Boomers for being themselves, and since Reddit hands out site bans for anything now it ends up destroying a lot of accounts.

          I really hope they never find Lemmy.
