Don't worry, the bot will still respond and it will get 10,000 upvotes from other bots and replies like "grond" and "15 years is 7889400 minutes" and "pass me the breastplate stretcher!" and the one real person left on reddit will smile and think "I love being part of such a large and thriving online community".
Now no one will ever see all those super long !remindme bot posts set for 5, 10 or 15 years on Reddit

RemindMe bot is no longer functional following the API pricing change, and many Redditors are still unaware of this fact.
InternetPirate 76 points 3 years ago
The unpopular ones can be used since they don't reach the API calls free limit.
darkmatterstyx 43 points 3 years ago
I think only mod specific bots were immune. As idiotic as Reddit has been, it might still be running, but, how will it remind those of us that erased all comments and then deleted our accounts? I have a feeling that wasn't an official bot, so it was probably programed correctly so it won't spam them with replys to deleted accounts 😢
Mythril 26 points 3 years ago
I looked it up now, and it does sound like Reddit made an exception for the reminder bot according to the bot's dev: https://www.reddit.com/...

I used to get a notification every year for some dude who had posted on reddit that he was alone on his birthday one year. He stopped replying several years ago, but I still messaged him each year at the prompt of remindme. So that's also a use case.

Probably one of the few useful bots ever added to Reddit.
We didn't need a million and one spelling, grammar and whatever other stupid bots the place got infected with. Hopefully Lemmy doesn't end up with them either.
Vupperware 57 points 3 years ago
Personally, I think the grammar bots fit right into Reddit culture.
Everyone is a smarty-pants on Reddit!
I do hope that people respect the instance hosts and go easy on the trivial bots when it comes to Lemmy though.
Thetimefarm 23 points 3 years ago
I didn't mind the fact that it was there, I was always just annoyed at how useless the memory hints were. Like yeah, of course I could spell "neither" if I just remember the e comes before the i... that's the problem.

Laticauda 2 points 3 years ago
I mean, I like knowing when I'm saying something incorrectly, and learning the correct way to say it. I value communication through text a lot because I have some issues with communicating verbally, so I like to know how to properly write what I want to say. So I didn't mind the grammar/spelling bots as long as they were polite about it, they were just providing accessibility to knowledge, at least in my eyes. It was the rude or condescending ones I didn't like.

Look up whathowwhy on YouTube. He's a dude from the UK who puts stuff into epoxy. A few years a go he put a hotdog into a cube of epoxy and would do periodic video updates on the hotdog. One year I actually watched the New Years Eve livestream of the hotdog slowly spinning on a dias. He'd put a little party hat on it and the live chat was absolutely hilarious.

Kind of sad if you think about it... After my heart attack and open heart surgery, I had considered setting up a bot to randomly send an /r/aww or /r/funny link to my wife every day after I die. Glad I didn't now. :(
kambusha 28 points 3 years ago
Glad you're feeling better! Check out futureme.org to send emails to the future. I believe whichever email address you send to needs to confirm that it's ok, but then you can send emails years into the future. I've been using it since 2010 or so and trying to write a letter to myself every year that I'll receive on my 50th bday. Sometimes my wife and I also write each other one too.
darkmatterstyx 7 points 3 years ago
In their FAQ nothing is sent to the recepient until the letter is sent. This seems like such a great service until you realize email providers, and addresses aren't permanent.
I've been with my husband 20+ years, I had 10+ email addresses when we met, and so did he. I love the idea, but wish there was a non-digital option for these things.
Digitally, if we could register a non-first-level domain for 40-50 years we could set up our own family email severs, with scheduled messages.

It's about time that people understood that "Everything on the internet lasts forever" is a falsehood formed from a Web 2.0 mindset. Now those big Web 2.0 sites everyone thought would dominate the internet forever are dying, and the only thing saving what was on those websites (the internet archive) is being constantly sued by greedy publishers.
Standroid 37 points 3 years ago
I think that warning is more about the lack of control you have over your own data. You post a pic or political view online and it will be duplicated before you know it and you won’t be able to delete it on your own terms.
Eufalconimorph 23 points 3 years ago
Yep, it's just Murphy's Law of data: everything you regret posting will be in public archives forever, everything you want to preserve will have gotten deleted the next time you try to find it.

I think if we’re being honest it’s just information theory right? You but any sort of information out there (digital or not) and that info has ripple effects and propagates
setsneedtofeed 5 points 3 years ago
The idea of old sites dying is what inspired me to hunt down really old hobby blogs and save up their images. Then contact creators and anybody who replied (sometimes it was a bit of detective work to find an old email) and signed off was reposted on my blog. Those old geocities type websites aren’t going to last forever without maintenance.
My effort is very small, but I think people should search out Web 1.0 and 2.0 old stuff in their wheelhouse and preferably with original author permission, rehost it.

I mentally associate the concept the most with the late 2000's when Encyclopedia Dramatica (a troll wiki dedicated to making fun of people) was at peak popularity and could ruin peoples lives if an article was made on a person there. All you had to do was type in a persons name on google, and chances are their ED article was one of the first results. But then not even 2 years into the next decade, ED imploded because the site admins wanted the place to be more sterile and profitable, and they were tired of being threatened by lawsuits.
You could argue that Encyclopedia Dramatica lives on in spirit as Kiwifarms, but at this point Kiwifarms struggles to even remain online 24/7 because they managed to piss off the wrong people.
Nothing is eternal on the internet. The only way to save information is to actively back it up and maintain it.

Does the bot used the API to send the message? In that case not even a couple of months alerts are going to work.

It's kind of sad to look back at that blind optimism that of course Reddit wasn't going to shit itself and I was definitely going to get that "!remindme in 10 years" DM and get a blast from the past.
Now all those messages will never be sent
obinice 19 points 3 years ago
For my family, the 2010s were already a big downward trend. Huge global financial crisis and it's fallout felt to this day, good things going away or getting worse (just look at how Facebook, Twitter, etc became utter crap around 2012), the rapid acceleration of income and class inequality, just so, so much that was slowly going downhill got even worse :-(
It's easy to forget that so much happened in the 2010s, even early on. It wasn't long into that decade that Occupy Wallstreet reminded us that we can't beat the rich, and that there's no hope. It crashed and burned so hard, and nobody's been able to stand up to corpos the same way since.
For me, hope was lost in the late 2000s. Everything else has just been slow nails in the coffin since then :-(
nachom97 5 points 3 years ago
Dang, I felt this one. But good things do come around either through lower expectations or better situations. That old quote always seems apt:
In the meantime cling tooth and nail to the following rule: Not to give in to adversity, never to trust prosperity, and always take full note of fortune's habit of behaving just as she pleases, treating her as if she were actually going to do everything it is in her power to do.

VindictiveJudge 9 points 3 years ago
I mean, most of them were meant to be silly, but reddit was also around a shockingly long time for an internet community. Consider that Myspace was only around for three years before it started losing status. Reddit, by comparison, was a major site for a decade and is only now starting to drop. And the remindme bot has been around for most of that time. A bunch of those 'remind me in a few years' posts were actually tripped.
Gabu 7 points 3 years ago
Most of those millions of users are largely irrelevant, as they don't create content nor moderate. It's akin to how Facebook can say they have millions of users, but nobody is actually using it anymore.
VindictiveJudge 4 points 3 years ago
Of course, but cracks are starting to show. My point was that this is an absurdly long time for something like reddit to be around at all, so the remindmebot comments that were set for years out weren't as out there as the guy above me seemed to think. Hell, reddit share holders seem to be upset with what's going on, so there are decent odds they'll revert the changes and we'll be back there in a year.
sgtlighttree 4 points 3 years ago

Not that I don't believe this, seems plausible to me⎯but would you happen to have a source for that.

Hate to say this but I'm still clinging on to Reddit for some of the niche subs, but hopefully they'll spring up here.

I'm betting the Reddit posts will be there, but the people who were wrong usually delete there account within a year, in shame as they tend to be wrong about lots of other things. And yep I probably won't be there either.
Zagorath 3 points 3 years ago
You can make separate accounts on each instance, or you can access content on other instances from your instance. Unfortunately when you click on a URL someone shares that takes you out of your instance, but you can copy/paste that URL into your instance's search box to access that post from your instance.
Zagorath 1 point 3 years ago
Great question. An instance is just the name of the site through which you're accessing the Lemmyverse. So you're on the lemmy.world instance, while I'm on aussie.zone.
You can think of Lemmy a little like email. You could be on Gmail while I'm on Outlook, but both of us can communicate with each other just fine, even though our email providers are completely different.

I don't think so, reddit was so dominant that had they simply not decided to anger all their power users, we'd all still be on there like nothing had changed. A good platform has staying power, I've been on Steam for 16 years and I have no plans of bailing on it because it's simply the best gaming platform I've ever used. It's not game lock-in or anything, most of my games I could buy elsewhere or pirate, I just like having the features and all these other ones popping up like GOG Galaxy still aren't overtaking it despite the good PR.

niemcycle 4 points 3 years ago
This is exactly it, now that the economy is slowing down, reddit is just one of many tech startups which whose investors now require actual returns instead of just promises of endless growth.
TicklishRocket 21 points 3 years ago
Agreed. Have been on Steam for almost 19 years. Nothing has really degraded as far as the service goes, and Valve's approach to listening to community feedback is good. We've saw controversy, mainly Paid Mods and CS:GO gambling, both have been taken care of for the most part due to community pushback. I can't think of a controversy that has made me want to leave the service though. With Reddit, it was a slow decline to its death on July 1st.
SmokeInFog 14 points 3 years ago
Not gonna lie, it was the will Reddit fiasco that has me concerned about my game library when Gabe goes

This is easily the main concern when it comes to Steam. A strong leadership can largely mitigate the ill effects of capitalism, but once said leadership goes away, it becomes a profiteering free-for-all.

No, it actually was down for a bit. It couldn't find new comments once PushShift's access to Reddit was cut off (but it could still remind you of stuff it knew about before PushShift went down), so the dev started frantically writing code to fix the issue.

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.
Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:
- Both “200” and “160” are 2 minutes in microwave math
- When you’re a kid, you don’t realize you’re also watching your mom and dad grow up.
- More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- No politics
- If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as "capitalism" and "communism". If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
- A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct and the TOS
If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.
Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report, the message goes away and you never worry about it.
