Good. Get more people away from it. I really wish JapanFinance in particular, but JapanLife/JapanResidents would move. That’s basically the only reason I go there; get help with complicated issues and try to help others where I can.

voting counts as activity driving engagement IIRC. I upload videos once in a blue moon and I personally care about that ratio, but I don’t know about other creators (like ones who actually are partnered and earn).
- Comment on Reddit signals ominous upcoming "changes” for old.reddit.com 2 months ago:
I only go there to ask in Japan-related subs about tax/business/legal questions and try to help others (though I’ve mostly stopped). Several of us tried to get the people to move but they won’t. Without the knowledge that some of the people (some of whom do related legal/accounting work for a living and others with decades of experience), there’s no point.
