I'm so f-n tired of the Internet It has become the worst placehttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49361760Today, my 3-year-old Reddit account has been banned for no reason. They deleted all my posts and comments as well. Yesterday, the website I invested years of my time in SEO into was nuked by Google and lost its position overnight due to new anti-spam policies that rolled in. A month ago, on another project, I missed an email from a payment processing provider and lost payments and all revenue, only because Gmail put the most important email in spam. Nothing works well in this fucking shthle. I'm sick of that.Aug 19, 2026 2:02 PM
