Why would you even buy this? Literally just buy a phone mount and use your phone. This thing was a textbook example of a useless product.

What happened to them being so desperate to make money that they'd charge third party all devs $20 million a year for API access? Surely removing ways to give them money won't help that situation, right?

I know the API thing was all about control and not the actual money, but they're just being so blatant about not giving a fuck about the site or the users. What a dreadful company.

I mean, by that logic, 99.9% of all food is unnecessary. Why season your food when you can just have plain chicken, plain salad, etc? It's just the nutritional content that matters, right?

There's this thing in life called enjoyment. People like to enjoy things.

That's pretty big. I wasn't a huge fan of everything they were doing, though. From all the communities I saw from Beehaw, they were all generic, cookie cutter ones that seemed to be trying to fill the default subs from Reddit. Gaming, Politics, Space, etc. All simple ones with the same icons and everything. I assume they were all ran by the same group of people, which loses the community feel I appreciate about most other instances.

Oh definitely. Killing third party apps means everyone using Reddit gets served ads now, so they're going hard on that.

Seeing downvotes as soon as there's at least one is so cool to me. Very small detail, but it makes a pretty big impact.

Edit: I appreciate the downvote to display this awesome feature 👍

As a Satanist, I'd like to, on behalf of the rest of us, say that we (and Satan) do NOT endorse Threads and Meta AT ALL. I will not stand for the absolute slander. Satan is far and beyond the Zuck morally.

Same. I joined .world randomly because I didn't understand Lemmy when I joined, but I made the right decision!

This post reads as if you're a PlayStation player that still obsessed over the cOnSoLe WaRs and is just salty.

  1. Countless attempts to hype up the game and huge random assurances from the devs

You mean... marketing?

Pretty much everything you said is dumb or just not true, but that one was especially hilarious.

I'm on .world because I had no idea which to join. Seems to be working just fine for me; I can see tons of posts from other places!
