bionicjoey,

Thanks, I hate being right.

abff08f4813c,

To all the folks saying that reddit couldn't replace the mods, that it was too big an effort, that they couldn't run a big sub all by themselves, I have only one thing to say to you.

You were right.

Kichae,

Once you have enough of it to live a comfortable life, money just becomes about power. So, what we have is some spoiled rich asshole who is used to having influence and power being shown that most of that was a gift. That gift has been recinded, and so the only control he has left is money.

He's spending some of Reddit's current and future earnings on stepping on necks. Because that's what the cash was going to be used for, in one way or another, anyway.

infotainment, (edited )

Reddit's stance has just been so bizarre.

So they want people to pay to not see ads? They literally sell that as a product, Reddit Premium. Why not tie API access to premium subscriptions? It's not even unprecedented; Spotify does this.

At this point, it's not about what is logical or sensible. Huffman would rather burn the place down than admit he was wrong.

I'm sure users will step forward if they care. Otherwise, it's just a campaign optimization at work. Limit the breadth of organic content to deepen the brand-friendly content and push more paid media into the feed.

This is what "to cut off your nose to spite your face" means. To the letter.

That's not what Elon Musk would do, so spez doesn't like it.

Spez is demonstrating “thanks I hate it (the users)”

redcalcium,

Ever since Victoria got sacked, reddit doesn’t seem to have anyone competent enough to run community relation anymore. They probably can’t figure out how to vet new mods if they were to hire some.

1Fuji2Taka3Nasubi,

It does not make sense to me why the API charge have to be calculated by total traffic of all users of an app either. I've decided to think it is just an excuse to get rid of third party apps until convinced otherwise.

FriendOfFalcons,

Reddit is really on their way to become the next facebook.

Reddit: You can't be private, people need to see the content, reopen or else!
TIHI: No.
Reddit: Fine, mods are gone and we've reopened the community. People who want to be mods speak up
Crickets: Cricket noises
Reddit: This sub is unmoderated, so it's now banned so nobody can see it

So... Reddit just reclosed the sub they said MUST be open.

Sound logic. Real class act.

Google thinks its new Perspectives tab will finally get you to stop adding 'Reddit' to searches (www.androidpolice.com)

While the technology shows promise, early testers have found that it falls short of a well-known search trick: adding "reddit" to the end of queries. Instead of directing readers to sites targeting SEO traffic, this straightforward technique draws on the knowledge of Reddit's community to provide actual help from forum...

banning and defederating communities

Hey all, I recently left reddit like many of you. I have a question regarding lemmy and the fediverse on the history of banning and defederation. I have noticed several posts calling for varying communities to be disconnected. were these removal requests as prevalent before the mass migration? Usually I am all for communities...

Probably my last screenshot from RIF (lemmy.world)

My Spez comic is currently #3 on /r/funny and hoping the morning US crowd sends it up again. Thanks for all the support, I know this final comic is a bit spicy but here's the full rez if you didn't want to go to reddit to see it. I'm just glad my little Lemmy plug on the bottom is getting some attention. Take care everyone!...

What's the best movie you've seen this month?

Definitely Across the Spider-Verse.

Although I got to say I was incredibly mad when the credits rolled. I was totally ready to sit through another two hours of movie.

Hey is there any third-party clients for iOS or web apps for Kbin?

Elegast, to AskKbin

Is there a kbin Android app yet? I know the web app works, which is what I'm using now, but would really like a native app. I'm assuming these are being worked on and just need time to bake!

Jcb2016,

@s6original There are so many lemmy apps. Why not kbin. if i could program i would have been had an alpha kbin out already!
