  • I won’t even respond to your juggling with my words. I’m lazy. You’ll start taking my phrases out of context again and the discussion will devolve into an empty argument. Surely your parents didn’t let you use the internet (if you were born then) when Google turned off all third party apps from the popular Google Talk back then. You probably don’t remember when Facebook and WhatsApp did the same thing. All social networks and messengers are going through this kind of production optimization and no one is making a big deal out of it. And in conclusion: I used fediverse when it was not yet mainstream. And now I have to admire the yelling of Reddit refugees.





  • So what? I can open my sub and put Nancy Pelosi’s ass on it.

    It all depends on your sense of humor.

    No one forces you to pay, ads are easily blocked.

    Your acrimonious talk is happening because you realize that Steve Huffman is acting legitimately, but not the way you want him to.

    And that no one is going to ask you in this argument.

    Maybe 50% of the subs closed, but 50% stayed.

    And you’re left in a half-empty Lemmy and jerking off to the fall of Reddit.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣





  • I’m trying to figure out what kind of blackout you’re talking about. I open up (oh my God, I feel like a heretic) Reddit and guess what? Hardly anything has changed on Reddit. My feed is still there. Yes, a grand total of five ever-fronting subs stopped working, ten more subs took a formal vote, and… it’s still the same. Every social network goes the way of monetizing content. I first joined Reddit in 2015, at the time it was an incomprehensible pseudo-social network with an awkward interface. It took almost 18 years before Reddit became usable. But blackout is still a long way off. While kbin/lemmy is consolidated by the thought of blackout, but people can’t stay in suspense for long.
