You can still make it painful for them on the way out. They are using up a shitload of resources dealing with this, and it will be hurting their image and valuation. The more Reddit has to stomp on its users, the more damage they do to their brand in the long run.
You can’t win, but you can go down fighting, and possibly take Reddit down with you.
Reddit may win, but make it as Pyrrhic a victory as possible.
My father used to tell me “Don’t let anyone fuck you for free,” that if someone wants to give you a parking ticket or bill hike or whatever, to contest it, to make it costly and time consuming for them so it’s not “free” to take things from you.
He would then usually tell the story of a family friend that killed himself in his car instead of letting it get repossessed.
I like this saying a lot. The story, not so much.
Absolutely grim, but also why it sticks with me as an ethos.
as an ethos, the story doesn’t help though… they not only took his car but also his life, and all he did was make it annoying for them?
that’s the definition of cutting off your nose to spite your face
