I just hope the vision isn't being changed to accomodate the tech nerds given how much backlash David said he got. People can be so cruel, even when you're trying to do good. Fuck these people, whoever they are!
I have a feeling they're cracking down on personal subreddits due to their own loophole in the upcoming change to NSFW content. If I interpreted everything correctly, Mods still get to see the full range of NSFW content, meaning seeing NSFW content even in subs that they aren't a Mod in, whereas regular Reddit users are restricted.
In any case, I find it ironic that they talk about the duty of being a Moderator with such importance, and yet Mods aren't even paid, AND... it's quite a common thing that many subs have wildly corrupt Mods. I've no joke been PERMANENTLY banned from certain subs for criticizing a movie, a recent episode in a TV show, etc, and I wasn't even a member of the sub for more than 24 hours. Like, ok, maybe I'm being a bit more harsh in my criticism than others, but when did it become a crime to have an opinion?
Sigh
I'm sorry that you have to deal with dogshit people trying to tear you down. It's so sad how people try their hardest to make the world worse rather than attempting to make it better. I'd honestly say just fuck the internet and go live life. This whole thing with Reddit has opened my eyes a lot. There's just no need to be on the internet. Simply put, the internet is just noise.
Thank you for your work 🫡
I don't want to be on Reddit anymore, but the slowness on Lemmy was stopping me from fully committing.
I'm still hesitant to sign up on Kick from what happened with Mixer and Facebook. Not to mention, nobody is going to Kick without a Kick-specific contract. No streamer is just gonna wake up and be like, "Lemme jump to Kick and rebuild my audience from scratch just for funsies."
Reddit app is fine for me. Y'all some cry babies.
Reddit app lacks efficient Mod tools and accessibility settings.
That's not my problem.
This is the attitude of Reddit rn. Shit's disgusting in all honesty. It's genuinely depressing how people try their hardest not to push the world to be better.
A big issue that I'm constantly having is that, I fully open a post and read it, and then all of a sudden the post has switched to an entirely new one. It has happened a few times now during my time typing this comment. Here's a screenshot of it.
The more people that Upvote and Downvote my comments here on Lemmy, I'm now curious to know if Upvoting and Downvoting on Lemmy hurts your overall experience much like how it does on Reddit?
For context: On Reddit, over the years I found myself deleting my posts and comments that got downvoted by any amount, but more so if it got double-triple number downvotes, not because I'm so incapable of having discussions and understanding and respecting people's opinions and points of view, but because other people could more or less control my Reddit experience, and that's just not fair or balanced. If you have low enough Karma you actually can be denied entry into subreddits. If you have low enough Karma you become limited on what you can even do on Reddit as a whole. Having low enough Karma can legitimately have negative effects on your general Reddit experience, and all it takes is for a handful of people who don't agree with what you're saying, who then choose to downvote your posts and comments.
Twitter, Reddit, Twitch, and now Lemmy...
...I'm gonna need more popcorn.
I know it's a post about Android, but is there anything for iOS besides Mlem? I know it's still pretty early in development, but I feel like I just can't use Mlem efficiently.
While realistically I wasn't expecting the death of Reddit, I had hoped something would happen, but, it's now 2 days later and subs are open and it's business as usual. Some gaming subreddits are even taking absolutely atrocious stands where they claim they HAVE to be open for the upcoming update to XYZ game. r/Games somehow thinks the various gaming showcases is justification for staying open, and r/Halo justified coming back online because Halo Infinite launches Season 4 next week. Funny enough, I was just perm banned from r/Halo because I called the mods out...
Awesome! Loading issues are still the bane of Lemmy's existence though, or at least it is for me and my experience with Lemmy. Everything just loads so slow. Sorting is still broken as well. Communities that I KNOW that are active just show as blank for me no matter what I sort by.
