I think it’s important to go through this process so that more visibility is placed on Reddit. I’ve deleted my account and am done with it, and I do think this may be the beginning of the end for that platform, but it’s clear it won’t go down without a fight and to suggest otherwise wildly underestimates how desperate Reddit’s execs may become when faced with the possibility of the platform’s demise. Even if it survives all of this, I think it and the perception of the platform will forever be changed.
I probably wouldn’t buy one now because of my extreme disdain for Musk, but also there are at least comparable alternatives available. Musk is a disaster, and maybe you can argue that if not Tesla, then some other vehicle would have jump started (heh) the EV movement, but I’ll at least give Testa credit for helping make the EV as popular as it is now. All that said, I still don’t own an EV because the last time I needed to buy a car it was still prohibitively expensive and I had no way to charge it overnight; I suppose there’s a whole separate discussion on considering an expensive car you can’t charge overnight because you rent an apartment that only has street parking and maybe the real need is to focus on a better housing solution before a new car…but anyways.
