The Female Dating Strategy Podcast: EP. 64 - #Reddxit Recap: FDS Ghosts, Blocks & Deletes Our Ex, As is Our Brand

A few months ago I opened a reddit account just to follow FDS. I haven't used it after FDS went private. After listening to 10 min of this episode, I have deleted my reddit account and listed as reason "misogyny + FDS was the content I was interested in". It is probably a useless raindrop, but it feels great. I view it as part of today's self care. I post this just in case someone else is thinking of getting rid of reddit!! PS. (The delete option is at the end of the "account" tag in settings, it took me a little while to find it on my phone) <3

Honestly I'm really glad FDS left Reddit, I also joined at the end of 2019 and the quality of the posts really went down as time went on. The engagement was not only lower but also less interesting (in terms of comments and feedback). And here is another thing, when the website first came online I checked it out right away and it was practically dead even doe you guys had put some strategy content up. With the reddit exit it kinda propelled traffic here which means that the development of the site and app will also grow exponentially. It may not be perfect or the most convenient now, but with time it will only get better.

I completely agree with the decision to leave Reddit! It’s obviously not the greatest outcome since we had a large following there, but why should we let disgusting, hostile Reddit weirdos have so much control over what’s supposed to be our safe space? It goes against everything we stand for literally. We do NOT negotiate with misogynists.

I deleted my reddit account and moved here the day the first reddxit episode came out!

I am so happy I found FDS on reddit but I am also really happy they left. Reddit is a shit show.

I just wish FDS mods would close down the comments on the FDS sub without making it private...close the comments so that no degenarate scrotes would be able to comment, but let it stay open so other women can get back to it and read all the great posts...I have not only saved great posts, but saved great comments as well! It would be a waste to close it down for good.

I wonder if Vindicta will be next to do a non-reddit forum?

Just catching up on podcasts now while I knit (yay for downtime from work) - and wow, it blows my mind that even some women gave the ladies a hard time for leaving Reddit.

I was unaware of just how bad things were over on Reddit because I mostly hang out on subs for discussing movies, TV shows, and musical theatre. Now that I know, Reddit is no longer a daily habit. I am wasting so much less time per day. 🤣

I've only been back when some search results for some information I needed led to Reddit threads - even then I was reluctant to give them the few measly clicks.
