Chrome is a memory hog compared to Firefox lol

Spez is free to do whatever, but he was such an asshole about it. Especially when he lied about Christian Selig blackmailing him, and when Christian Selig gave the call as proof that he didn’t, Spez tried to make him look the bad guy by accusing him of “leaking calls”… he even said before that he wouldn’t charge for API in 2023 but then he made an abrupt announcement that he would in ONE MONTH, with high fees. Developers would need time to readjust their app to optimise the use of API calls and one month is not enough. Why can’t Spez just be DIRECT that he wants to discontinue 3rd party apps? Why was he so wishy washy and vague instead of actually telling others what the hell he wants? Then he had some sort of fantasy where we are his “serfs”… which is kinda disgusting. Look man, I’ve only used 3rd party apps for a few months and could return to the official app with no difficulty, but I seriously don’t like being under that person. At least on the Fediverse I can choose who my admin is. (Kbin btw)

Spez was the problem, not the reddit community.

I mean I get that he’s in some sort of one-way findom relationship with spez but that should be done without harassing other people— we didn’t consent to it.

Yeah it’s so weird, why make an account here if he likes Reddit so much? We just want to have another place to have communities, that’s why we left and stayed here. He should do the same, stay there and out of here if he hates this place so much.

What karma? Spez started it by being a liar 🤷‍♂️ so I say it is natural that people stop supporting him.

Search up neko subliminals on Youtube and neko journal on Wattpad. She may be that sort of person

Yes, but from my end actually. I thought I had the ability to control the weather, and I went down this rabbithole when I read stuff about Mythicals and AWTOK from Wattpad. That place was wild, there were people claiming to be relatives of gods and were the “chosen ones” to represent mythicals in the war or some shit like that. One of them had a discord community server at one point and claimed they could “detect your mythical type” (some people tried using different accounts and they got different results each time LOL). As to how committed they are, they would listen to subliminals, practice magic every day, make designs for their desired mythical type, etc

Considering most of reddit’s comments are either one-liners and jokes, it’s not that hard to get upvotes as a bot… but how’d you spot one? I’m afraid that I didn’t learn the ability to distinguish between bot and human.

17/20. I got 90% in detecting fake news, but 80% in identifying real news…

LOL what?? That’s insane

I don’t know how it would have differed from Reddit in this regard, but it would be quite suitable for a forum website to give thorough reviews of books. Some people give reviews of books on Tiktok where they just say the main topic of the book and that it’s ‘good’… good in what way? And like what other commenters have mentioned, some love too for nonfiction. Maybe we could even have discussions for fanfiction?

It’s almost a relief that I was (relatively) recently introduced to 3rd party apps that it made me care enough to move to Kbin in protest of Reddit’s actions. The future there is bleak.

Thank you!

That may be the case, so I think it’s a temporary answer to this mystery. Though recently some of my comments ranging from 7 and 10 months ago (update: as of 6/19/23 my 18 days old comments are now reappearing) have been reappearing again, so it’s become a kind of a whack-a-mole situation right now.

You couldn’t even trust redditors to read past the headlines!

And now how exactly do we mention people with untypable usernames?

It’s funny how he calls the moderators landed gentry, when he is the one benefitting from the mods’ unpaid labor, all because they wanted to maintain their community, and then calls them squatters. In my culture, that sort of language means that he’s trying to mock the moderators for being squatters “aspiring to be landed gentry”… then if you put his comments about owning slaves in an apocalyptic scenario into perspective… honestly I have no words left.
And all those “subtle insults” for the community just makes me wonder, why do people even want to benefit him, or be associated with him? This man was the ultimate reason why I left, not even the fact that I was a 3rd party user.

For me, it’s not the app but u/spez. He lies, manipulates and tried to discreetly insult the community. It doesn’t feel right for me to remain there.

I think it’s actually Beehaw
