Who could have possibly seen this coming

Yeah I was worried this could become a problem, because I imagine a lot of chuds are turned off of lemmy because of the tankie devs. Which makes sense. But I don't think they should be welcome here, either. I'm trying to get away from that authoritarian shit, not get closer to the even worse kind of authoritarian shit.

You use terminal because you know what you are doing.

I use terminal because I want to feel like a hacker in a 90's movie.

We are not the same.

No one needs to see this, you are throwing out extremely basic arguments that all of us encounter every day in this regressive society. You aren't speaking truth to power, you're just being part of the power right now. You aren't making yourself look good and you aren't making the world a better, freer, more nuanced, or happier place.

People: Hey, stop being a jackass.

Conservatives: OMG, yoU WANT TO CREATE A FAR LeFTIST ECHO CHAMBER

Every fucking time.

Unequivocally yes. You are clearly not engaging in good faith and tolerance of malicious disinfo is basically the main problem currently facing our culture.

That is a fucking great question coming from the people who are literally in charge of regulating these sorts of things.

Nice, fuck alcohol. I quit drinking years ago and it was one of the best decisions I ever made. My life is so much simpler and more fun now.

Except for, you know, the land, and the wealth, and the social power. What a weirdo.

I thought it was more that if you killed them in OTHER ways, they would come back to life. The stake through the heart is to make sure a vampire is good and actually dead, and not just hibernating.

Some countries have actually legalized squatting in certain situations (like if a building is long term empty) to put some fire under the landlord’s ass to either find a paying tenant or sell. And honestly I think it’s an inelegant but effective solution.

It’s not productive to have real estate units sitting empty in the middle of the city and we simply shouldn’t allow it.

😅😂 OMG this is so accurate 😅😂

Remember, Digg dying helped Reddit, but it didn't make Reddit. Reddit was already fairly well-established when Digg shat the bed. It was really easy for people to glom onto a pre-existing community that already had some people who posted on both Reddit and Digg. Lemmy and kbin aren't nearly as big or feature-complete now as Reddit was when all that Digg drama went down. However, we work with what we have, haha.

I believe they're referring to collective ownership https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collective_ownership

So you advocate your own posting taking its natural course and dying off? I can think of a way you can hurry up this process.

Yes. Average users = people shitting. Power users = office workers avoiding work. So mote it be.

Horrifying. Rest in peace.

Yeah this was my thought as well.

The problem here is pigs murdering people without evidence.

I'm not confident the FBI is going to solve that problem.

Yeah, journalists are really dropping the ball on communicating what I think is very simple: it's fine for Reddit to charge [something] for their API, but these prices are totally unreasonable. Charging hundreds of thousands of dollars for something which costs pennies to provide is absurd and unethical in any context.

Lemmy, kbin, and Mastodon are all different ways to view content posted to "the fediverse" which is basically a bunch of different small servers communicating with each other. They're basically different ways to do view and interact with the same posts, kinda like how you use different services (gmail, etc) for email, and then access that still with different software (browsers, or thunderbird, or what have you). For instance, right now I'm responding to your comment from kbin on my desktop browser.

When 3rd party apps are blocked on July 1st, Reddit is no longer going to support accessibility features that blind mods and users need. Reddit's owners don't seem to have considered how much work it's going to be to provide said features "in-house."
