Title is pretty much it. Woke up this morning to an email in the inbox with a reddit message notification from u/reddit

The thing is not only have I not been on reddit since the protest (barring google searches while not signed in on a private browser, for specific questions unfortunately), but it’s a lurker account. I have one post from a year ago asking a question, then a few sporadic comments with the last being in April.
I suppose the breakup with Reddit is a mutual thing now lol. Just a very strange scenario.
For the same reason employers and unemployment insurance is moving from termination, to separation. Less of an inherent negative connotation.
Unfortunately, they fail to realize that the system itself is what created the negative connotation in the first place. So it too will be replaced with yet another synonym in the future.
The good old euphemism treadmill.
