TL;DR: Reddit is removing the option to opt out of ad personalization, targeting ads based on user activity. Some specific ad categories can still be limited, but there's no more opt-out option.

How is it dramatic when it's all interconnected to begin with? People noticing a shift like that online might start to get involved in other ways as well if they start to feel more of the effect personally. It's a good thing that people are noticing this stuff.
Again it's not a competition and people shouldn't have to have their frustrations compared to something else, that is devaluing it. We are allowed to be upset about something and have that stand on its own without others chiming in and acting like it doesn't matter because of something else so that they can act self important or more intelligent. It's just old and tired.
You seem to have an incredibly bad attitude and I wouldn't be shocked if you were trying to start something, so I'm done here. Maybe try some empathy out for a change.
I'm not trying to start anything, I just don't follow your logic, and your comments seem like an over reaction.
I'm happy to agree to disagree though, and won't presue a conversation neither of us really wants to have.
Hopefully you find other people on here that are more suited to your perspectives (I'm legitimately sorry we're clashing). Lemmy is a great platform and I want you to enjoy it as much as I do
