It's so nice of Stevie boy to refer to his userbase as "noise". Proof of how little he values the people who use his corner of the internet. Hopefully this wording of his will show how little he thinks of everyone.

Oh caiman

Tracking. Ads. Selling data etc.

Both great Distros. I personally prefer Fedora, though.

I think the writing has been on the wall for a long time. Reddit, in it's stupidity, likely underestimated the response / backlash from its users. Next, I'm guessing spez will step down or get fired.

Ah well done. Apologies for not linking the article myself. I've been too distracted by the above crapfest.

RedReader is a fantastic app. I hope the dev works it out.

I was reading an article from The Verge - they've linked all the juicy parts of the AMA. I don't have a Reddit account anymore since hearing about what their plans were a few weeks ago. It looks like Reddit is facing a very real, self inflicted meltdown.

Fyi - it looks like the reviews for Reddit on the Google Play Store have been locked as well to prevent review bombing.

I'm an ex Reddit user. It seems inevitable that the Reddit admins will lock out third party access - I could be wrong but based on recent years, Reddit doesn't like to listen to it's community.

I hope that the toxicity stays away, but it's likely there will be toxic users at some point. My main gripe with Reddit was the lack of actual reading. Most mainstream subs were just memes / circlejerks / pics. I'd much prefer to learn something or read something of value over "lol-ing" at a pic.

I'm keen to see how Lemmy grows.
