Pirating from any billion dollar company is morally correct, (don’t) change my mind.
After all the bullshit these corpos keep pulling, with anti consumer practices and just hostile actions in general (not bothering to archive/preserve history and letting things rot because it’s ‘not profitable’), they can all go kick rocks.

Giant websites like Reddit don’t die overnight, death by a thousand cuts is how it happens.
No one expects Reddit to shutter in the span of a month or two, but as more and more people get fed up and move, the rest will follow.
