I left Reddit after /u/spez continued to lie about the changes being made to the API. After finding kbin I wanted to read more AITA posts like I could on Reddit, but after finding none I created this magazine at https://kbin.social/m/amitheasshole so that I could encourage others to make such posts.

I could have waited for long-standing Reddit moderators to come here and make it but I skipped the line to do it myself. AITA for not waiting?

    NTA. u/spez is clearly the asshole in this relationship. You should divorce immediately.

    @sidekick AITA is one of the subs I scrolled through everyday and one of the subs Ive been missing the most. Thank you for this, hope more people make the switch over here.

    @sidekick Considering Reddit’s amitheasshole is one of the few Reddit communities not going black in response to the API changes, I’d say it’s more like they are TA. I guess not everyone supports 3rd party apps, communities, and mods. If they come here and want to build the community on kbin they can just be added as mods.

      @iPabloSB
      That sat wrong with me too… and I don’t even use 3rd party apps.
      It was more the principle of the thing. One time we managed to unite a big chunk of internet content in a protest and I felt like the mods in AITA… made a joke out of it.

    I have been waiting for someone to not be the asshole that created this community.

    Reading AITA and giving unwanted solutions to FWP are some of my small joys in life.

    @sidekick Thanks for making it! AITA, BORU and RA were my favourite subreddits! And all the new Kbin/Lemmy content explaining the fediverse to redditfugees is really helpful as I have NFI what I’m doing!!

      I’ll be honest I almost didn’t subscribe because I had already unsubscribed from the Reddit version for not participating in the continued protest. but then I read this!
