He may not get the most downvoted comment in reddit history. But Spez is likely to end up with the most brutal AMA in history…
“Thank you for all the years of hardwork single handedly creating the greatest platform and gracing us with your presence here today. With regards to the api changes and third party apps, I was just wondering if you had started the process of going and fucking yourself? you greedy little pigboy.” -u/OoooThatsTheSpot
Facebook is big in paintball circles. As much as I hate to say it their format works exceedingly well for organizing and buying/selling. As long as we censor appropriately it’s arguably the best format we’ve had thus far and I’m not sure anyone would be willing to part with it for a new platform.
I brought !paintball@midwest.social over, although I’m not expecting a large turnout. While they are participating in the blackout, I don’t know that many will seek an alternative and will probably just want to play more…
Chrono Trigger was the first game I owned and to this day triggers crazy strong nostalgia in me.
In the interest of fairness, isn’t the difference between TenCent and the Chinese government basically just paperwork? I’ve always heard (anecdotally) that they work extremely close with the CCP.
Reddit confirmed for being into gaping Jesus.
I don’t think this is the death of Reddit, but I do think it’s the dumbing down of Reddit. A lot of the power users that spend all day interacting and posting are going to be the ones leaving. Reddit will turn from a social community back into a simple link aggregator with people posting articles and having the same discussions over and over again in the comments.
Yeah I should have been clearer, it would have been more accurate to say I blame cryptobros.
This is a huge frustration, at least format it intuitively for phones since you’re actively encouraging their use.
Like that Hyundai concept? That thing was rad. I’d drive the hell out of an EV that looks like an AE86.
My instance gets an occasional hiccup but usually reloading the page gets me through. Even if Lemmy doesn’t end up with a Reddit-sized userbase I’m excited to see what it becomes. All-in-all feeling pretty positive about it.
r/edc and r/pens would be cool too.
Already made !paintball@midwest.social , here’s hoping some players start floating in.
It’s because everything is buzzwords these days. They just think decentralized is another buzzword rather than a legitimate descriptor. I blame crypto.
You’re not wrong. A little more impactful for Christian though considering the time and effort he put in to arguably the best Reddit experience outside of old.reddit. Oh well… time for a new kid on the block.
God, I feel so bad for Christian. What a slap in the face….
I wish! He hasn’t answered anything but softball questions I can only assume were posted by his mom and secretary.
