Hey there! There is a Reddit subreddit called r/saveafoxsnark which bullied, harrased and spread outright lies about an animal rescuer and digital content creator called Mikayla Raines, which pushed her to commit suicide. Reddit is not banning r/saveafoxsnark even after an innocent women committed suicide! I was not comfortable being a member of a platform which gives space to communities which basically pushes someone to commit suicide. By being there I was letting Reddit gain money by selling my data, so I decided to not allow it anymore. I was a long time Reddit qunkie and couldn’t quit it and kept on going back there. But never again! I have permanently moved into Lemmy! Please help me spread this and help Mikayla get justice! Make Reddit accountable!

Been looking for this for years. And yesterday I went through some old backups and finally found it and got enough keywords to find it on YouTube as well.

Some of the old videos are saved as flash files. And VLC played most of them like a champ!
