Yes! I think we have many communities that are either:
Oh I don’t mind at all. I liked it here. I think it only bugs me when statistics reporting is contingent on good news.
Oh believe me, I don’t need to imagine. I worked for the art/design studio that got bought out by a tech giant. Experienced the feeling first hand :(
The title was confusing and I was about to lose my shit about CN going away for good.

Came here to say just that. Used to love fast food, sodas and candy in large amounts too. Then went to a conference and watched a video of myself giving a talk there afterwards. I hated looking like that.
Thus begun my journey of weight loss. 45kg later I can genuinely say that while some part of my brain still asks for garbage food, I genuinely enjoy eating healthy. My entire taste palette changed, too - and I can now taste flavors that were unknown to me due to overdependence on salt and sugar.
Daily walk/jog is a highlight of the day, and whenever I feel like eating garbage foods again, I just have to think about how it makes me feel not just after - just an hour, or two or a day later.
Is this a reported news, or a speculation? Really curious, before I start going around, repeating it.
I was planning to start a petition post, but wasn’t sure where would be the right place to post it.

Yup, but I’m getting very strong Google+ vibes…
No matter how small and quiet it gets here, I like it better than what Reddit has become.
