    Obviously the community shown dying in the second panel is /r/trees.

    I really enjoyed hearing “enshittification” in the voice of Ian McKellen as Gandalf in my mind 👏👏

    Honestly, for being a meme, this is one of the best explanations of the Reddit situation so far and gives some great insights. Good job!

    Switch the last panel to ActivityPub to include Kbin and this is truly an epic and sad tale, but not without hope.

    Someone will probably enjoy this, but I bailed like 4 panels in and there were literally hundreds more panels to read.

      The comic basically says:

      Users: Please run Reddit decently and do stuff people have told you to do for so long.

      u/spez: Fuck you. We need to become profitable and to do that the API has to be shut down.

      Users: Then, with the enshittification of this website, with the horrible management of once a great land, Reddit will crumble when the IPO approaches and investors get their hands on it. So just go to Lemmy where none of this is happening lmao
