While this is funny, I think this will actually increase traffic to the Reddit, hence increase ad revenue?
Unless they put a link to go somewhere else for the content users are actually looking for to redirect traffic, I don’t think this will do a whole lot.
I think the options were this or the mod gets removed and "normal" operations resumes.So I prefer this.
The ad revenue boost is going to be temporary, obviously. A. Subreddit that just posts vacuum cleaner pictures is not going to maintain people's interest.
Any investors with two brain cells to rub together would see that Reddit is not in a healthy state with subreddits doing these things. So if they are looking to sell, this will do a lot of damage.
Yeah I like the idea of sidestepping the mod dethronings by reddit, but I've seen in practice it just makes the subs more popular until the idea looses steam. People want to be a part of the meme and it makes the subs busy as hell, not really wreck them. It's malicious compliance that still gives users reasons to engage with Reddit and even log on to check stuff.
I'm not sure. I mean you enter once to see the gimmick, maybe twice to post something and make the joke. But that's it. The subreddit content that millions of people seeked everyday is still gone, and people is not really going to keep frequenting those plsces with regularity until the content is back.
It all depends on how long can they keep the strike before being overthrow by reddit admins. A few months of vaccum cleaners or John Oliver pics and those subreddits would be generating a fraction of their original traffic.
I can imagine your service advisor smirking every time the customer complained and it brings me delight. Her and your manager make it sound like an amazing workplace.
I've never understood anyone gatekeeping things they like. Wouldn't you want to date someone who is into the things you're into? I think it's changing with younger generations, but when I grew up I remembered hearing the same guys saying they wish they could date a woman who is into Star Wars and video games, but then would gatekeep any woman they met who was into those things as if they are just faking it.
At least sometimes, when you see a guy gatekeeping like that it means they think girls don't like them because they like Star Wars or whatever. But in reality girls don't like them because of personality flaws, or hygiene issues, or any other reason that is actually something they could fix if they cared to.
No, they don't want matching hobbies. Insert an alternate hobby below as needed
Mechanic time is actually masked alone time
Mechanic time is actually masked bro time
They're insecure bad mechanics
They're insecure good mechanics
They're worried the woman won't find her natural calling being a housewife and might brush off those duties to the man if he can't fulfill his mechanical duties
They're worried the woman won't be dependent on them for "very difficult" work that's also somehow super "easy for him"
They might have to intellectually debate the woman on a topic instead of just being able to coldly fuck her
I find this general mindset mad that modern mechanics are just "parts replacers" while they themselves also only replace parts. Yeah, the OEMs have spent decades troubleshooting and detailing repairs to make an entire encyclopedia of fixing the cause so you don't have to.
Yet another excellent "Welcome" post! I've been so impressed with the welcome and onboarding that the Lemmy/Fediverse community as a whole has provided! Truly impressive! I can confidentally say to people just jump in and try it, you'll find a TON of how to's and people willing to help out and explain things!
