I am also enjoying all the drama...hilarious. Although, like OP said, it is very bizarre to watch and I was also quite surprised that big news is reporting on it. I am kind of sad, on the other hand. I liked reddit originally, then it all just seemed to spiral dowards into a cluster-f.

I've been checking out alternatives and am liking Snapzu so far - it can at least handle the influx of refugees relatively well.

The atmosphere on Reddit has gone extremely down hill. It just started to feel like a giant cluster-F, even before today. Who knows, they might be the next Digg. As a regular redditor I've seen a whoooolllle ton of unhappy people today, and people basically just bashing reddit - much of which was hilarious.

I suppose only time will tell what happens next.

This had me spew my beer all over my phone. Is it bad that I take so much joy in her horrible karma? I'm loving it.

I seriously feel like I just fell overboard and washed up on some strange island. But then a friendly tribe came out of the jungle brush with nose rings and spears and offered me a place to stay. I'M SO DISORIENTED AND CONFUSED!!
