Christian is releasing the final update for Apollo, allowing users to opt out of the refunds (mastodon.social)

Attached: 1 image I just released a really important Apollo update that adds the ability for users with remaining subscription time left to decline an automatic refund. Devs pay refunds out of pocket, and this will be about $250K, so I thank you for your consideration. ❤️ Also, this update includes an amazing "Goodbye Apollo...

Coincidence that Reddit and Twitter are taking the same approaches to monetization? (lemmy.ml)

Instead of deleting your Reddit account, consider using chatgpt to make comments instead

And make sure not to click on any links. If enough people use chatgpt or other LLM's to generate comments that are wordy but clearly just filler, it'll give advertisers pause and tank the value of the site as training data. Reddit's response will probably be to start banning users it thinks are doing this but normal users will...

There needs to be a step by step migration guide

It was and still is hard - or at least tedious - for me as a software developer to find out how to use the fediverse and lemmy. I can’t imagine how annoying it must be for a normal user. The one thing I really liked about reddit, is that you can find a well written guide for everything, often pinned at the top of a specific...

This has got to be artificial (media.kbin.social)

Reddit's updated rate limits going into effect over the coming weeks, not entirely on July 1st, as was expected (www.reddit.com)

This is why apps like Boost, who never signed up for a subscription model are still functioning....

Christian Selig’s Goodbye to Apollo (mastodon.social)

I wrote a short goodbye post on Reddit as we enter the last hours of Apollo. Just wanted to say thanks to everyone for the support over the years, it’s truly been the journey and dream of a lifetime building this app and meeting so many people. 🥰💙...

Things to think about and lessons to learn.

Reddit exodus - Using Lemmy from my existing Mastodon (vijayprema.com)

Many are turning to Lemmy as a viable Reddit alternative. Here is how to use your existing Mastodon account with Lemmy.

I made a tool that transfers your reddit subscriptions to lemmy, thought maybe you all might be interested (github.com)

One thing that annoyed me about moving to Lemmy was that I’d lose my subreddits and that looking for and joining communities on Lemmy would be tedious. So (logically) I spent 2 days writing a script, that gets a list of your subreddits from your reddit account and looks for communities with the same name on Lemmy. It also...

Reddit's API protest just got even more NSFW (mashable.com)

The Apollo inspired wefwef.app is the best Lemmy app/webapp right now, and its not even close. (lemmy.world)

This Apollo inspired Lemmy website can be installed as a webapp on any phone, and it works flawlessly and has a beautiful design. Currently, it's the best Lemmy app. I highly recommend it.

Threadiversal Travel - A guide for Lemmy, Kbin and general Reddit off-ramping (shellsharks.com)

Hey Kbin-folk, I’ve recently published my take on the “threadiverse” in the form of a quasi-guide but with some other commentary. Appreciate any feedback, good or bad!

Hi kbinners! Fuck spez (media.kbin.social)

What's your opinion on cross-posting?

One of the hurdles to change for users switching from reddit to a federated platform is less content. The logic goes: “smaller community, less content, I can see i’m missing out on stuff over there so I’m not going to switch away”....

Lemmy lets you edit the title of your post

Something that I really appreciate after moving here from Reddit: I can finally edit titles!...

📢Entire mod team on r/mildlyinteresting (and more subs) removed and locked out of their accounts after changing their rules upon community's request. (They're also switching subs BACK to SFW) (kbin.social)

EDIT: GO DM MODS OF YOUR FAVORITE SUBREDDITS AND POLITELY ASK ABOUT MIGRATION!: something as simple as "Hey, I love this community but I no longer use reddit, will you guys be making a community on Kbin or other alternatives? Let me know please, thanks." will work!! We need more voices encouraging migration!...

For those in the know about privacy laws and the such. What is a proper response to reddit's claim that they cannot remove all the information associated to an account without first the user removing all of their posts? (kbin.social)

As the title says, Reddit replied to my GDPR request to delete all my data saying I had to do it first, which I suspect is in violation of GDPR law....
