Oh no. I’m so sad that Reddit isn’t raking in the money. So terribly sad. How awful for the site that killed lied about 3rd party apps and their devs to shove buggy adware down our throats.

At this point I think he can only be removed by force of nature. Death can only be cheated so long.

How dare you come in with interesting education on a silly post!

Switched! I don’t have the time/willpower to heavily research this, and changing VPNs is easy compared to changing things like eMail or OS.

Especially easy with all these recommendations here.

Commenting so I remember to check this thread later. My Mullvad expires in 5 days.

Can always count on Lemmy to raise awareness on where to not spend money!

I ran from a site whose CEO spread malicious lies about 3rd party app developers while changing things to charge them so much fir API access that it was effectively a soft ban on said apps existing without saying they were banned in top-tier scumminess, all so they could force people onto their shitty stolen buggy ad-infested app to crank up their own numbers for their IPO at the expense of the community and devs that propped them up.

I don’t see this happening on Lemmy.

I have lost The Game. :)

This successfully hurt my brain.

The rules dictate that I must now announce I have experienced a Loss of The Game.

Deleting the app did wonders for me. Well, Reddit deleted the app FOR me (Apollo user), and I refused to install their adware app onto my phone.

Forced me to only use it on PC, because visiting via phone browser showed like 3 comments on thread, then linked to some other thread, and insisted I install their adware for “a better experience”.

PC I was still browsing and occasionally commenting on old.reddit for a while, with uBlock on high censorship mode. But all my mobile browsing was gone.

Welp. This one again. One more Loss of The Game!

Welcome to the Fediverse!

Good to see you found your interests here! One of the most common complaints is the lack of whatever niche someone is looking for. So it sounds like you got lucky!

I’m another that fled when they killed 3rd party apps, and.lied about devs to demonize them in the process. Never swappedoff of old reddit on my PC, Had been spending half of my reddit time on mobile, refused to install their shitty adware app on my phone.

Spent less and less time on it on PC, eventually accidentally did something on my browser that disabled the ‘reply’ button even on old reddit, took it as a sign.

Old account, same Karma style. No farming, just decent wordsmithing while writing my comments. Enough to know my general comments would be positive, without sacrificing what I wanted to say. (And to know when to go all-out on something unpopular enough that no careful words would stop the downvotes)

You will find a different culture here. I’ve certainly gotten dome comments upvoted that I was SURE would go negative. If you notice posts/people that bother you are primarily from one instance, you can block that whole instance from your feed. We even have a lil community specificly for complaining about power-tripping mods at !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com if you feel any here could use some name 'n shame!

I hate that it’s so on-brand for the US to target a school.

Replying from a Lemmy instance, via Thunder. Hello!

I hate that our greatest hope is that the guy is 80 and has shit health.

Clearly the people aren’t going to actually do anything besides disapproving looks and politely asking him to stop ignoring the law and constitution.

Why bother. I’m here to lurk, post an occasional comment, and enjoy. Not to make a reputation or become visible.

Haven’t even looked into how. I think Lemmy is federated with some other types of fediverse styles, too? The interface I’m on doesn’t emphasise individual user pfps. I can see pfps but they’re tiny circles on my phone that I only notice if they’re pointed out.

Because I’m getting rid of the old shit!

For one, it’s six seven, not sixty-seven. That’s the first trip up.

As for the second, assuming I understand correctly: It literally means nothing. It’s just a thing to say. And it’s funny when adults are baffled and can’t understand.

I did see someone point out that six times seven equals fourty-two. Which is neat.

I haven’t, but interesting they exist!

All the info I get is from Status Coup. I don’t want to paraphrase anything incorrectly so here’s one report on it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iSrqt7rKqqg

Can search Luigi on their channel for the coverage they’ve done. There’s a lot.
