There are no stable releases, just a continual rolling build from the single bespoke server farm that can create releases

Such an abomination could be created. Just imagine all the over engineering that would be required.
It would run ANYTHING on ANY platform by incorporating every libc and assembler and VM and dynamic interpreter.
It runs on EVERY platform and thus it can be adequately tested on NO platform.
I never really did this on the bad place but if you browse new and fire off something snarky or heartfelt first it often becomes the top comment in my experience
(Possible) room temperature superconductor and (possible) broad-band super-chemo in one week, eh?
Lemmy really needs filter words for times like these.
I’d also like to argue that they can’t talk about Reddit itself over there any more because of the pervasive manipulation and censorship so we should make space for that conversation over here.
I think you are right about the normal users but I think they alienated a big percentage of top mods. I think the consequences of that are just starting to manifest.
Honest question, why isn’t your clubhouse over at lemmygrad enough?
Truth be told, I opened it up and saw the first item was “Assess your individual carbon footprint” then unleashed my salty
“We wrote up a quick list of things you can do yourself to feel better instead of blaming the real culprit! (Our precious advertisers)”

Damn they really hate their users
So basically Reddit sucks at ads too 😂
Do you know something we don’t know? Are they secretly courting a private buyer instead of actually going for an IPO?
Not an advertiser but they generally know % of views (“impressions”) to clicks (called click through rate) and percentage of clicks that turn into sales (called conversion rate).
For that reason, I don’t think they’re trying to get rid of human users completely, just the “troublemakers”.
I think they want to lead the “silent majority” users into a bot advertorial content hellscape where they control all the levers of power and everything is for sale.
Also, infinite layers of meta commentary and criticism of the meta and criticism of that criticism… I’m home
I wasn’t sure how to respond to this at the time.
I’m coming back to report that I just saw this.
I was scrolling All + Hot using Connect on Android and saw this post: https://lemmy.ml/post/57957
Judging by the influx of new comments, I wasn’t the only one.
Lemmy’s default sort is “Active” - which I believe is “most recent comment activity”
The classic reddit experience is most like the “Hot” sort option.
Lemmy’s other weird default is the “feed” which can be all, local, and following. Lemmy defaults to “local”, which is probably not what you want (chronological feed of posts on your home server)
Also highly recommend “blocking” communities if you don’t want to see their content. (Mostly important if you browse the “All” or “local” feeds)
:wqa!
