If the admin are in cahoots with the crypto mining douchebag, then no part of the site is safe.

Yes, but also no.

At the end of a r/Place event the palette changes, and you can only place white pixels.

So yes, you could use a bot to write it again; but no, in reality you wouldn’t be writing anything.

Everyone who left reddit or significantly reduced their time on reddit returning to constantly refresh a page advertisers won’t see that says “fuck spez” is helping to boost Reddit’s numbers. This isn’t just about whatever number of people left reddit for Lemmy.

You’re just driving up traffic and engagement on reddit, at a time when Huffman desperately needs to convince advertisers that reddit still has a lot of traffic. It’s saving the company financially.

So yeah, not a great protest.

But that’s not true, all of those things were there at launch. It was just reddit gold, which got you a month of premium along with all those perks.

It was never intended to build upon the original sorting mechanism, it was intended to be a super upvote that granted the receiver elevated privileges. It used to get you into an exclusive subreddit, turn off the ads, and give you discounts at stores across the internet. But then people memed on it and the admin decided to indulge the memes.

This is why I never run. It’s just not safe.

No problem. I just hope that soon these instances will support pulling thumbnails from the articles to give the links a richer presence here. They’re all so uniform and ugly right now.

Oh weird, adding a picture killed the link. Lemme see if I can fix that.

Sorry, I’m new here.

I mean a lot of the content posted on reddit wasn’t actually made by the posters to begin with. Everybody’s just sharing memes they found on other platforms.

The first decade of Reddit’s life it was just pulling content from 4chan and Digg. I would not be surprised to see the fediverse operate similarly.

Registering to all instances with the same username/password is just asking for trouble. They’re not all equal and some of them will get hacked somehow.

End of an era.

They did dozens of successful trips to the Titanic, but for some reason people only wanna talk about the time they accidentally cooked and pancaked the CEO

I wouldn’t bother writing replies to a bot, but if it makes you feel better.

We spent four years at war over the death of one man, and twenty years at war over the deaths of three thousand.

And this was not the first black person to be murdered in France by the police like this. The Parisians are responding to a pattern that has not been ended no matter how much they protest.

There are no safe and sane riots. This is how rioting goes. I don’t take part in riots, but I understand that it is the language of the unheard (much in the same way that war is “diplomacy by other means,” rioting is what happens when protests don’t work).

You have evidence this is happening on Spotify’s Discover Weekly playlist?

He’s English. We’re lucky he didn’t steal it and stick it in the British Museum.

These riots are about a cop murdering an unarmed black teenager, not pension reforms.
