  3. draft - why doesn't neowin.net have an edit button

    #neowin

    I thought neowin could sorta be my way to post stuff instead of on reddit, on a more traditional forum. Without having to worry about karma.

    But without an edit button, I'm a little bit weary.

    The problem with making a comment on reddit to a thread is that your comment, when good intentioned, can get downvotes. Now, maybe if subreddit admins could limit downvotes to like zero or minus 1, or even remove downvoting altogether, that'd be interesting.

    But like, today I made a comment on a thread of chrome extensions. And it was a good extension. I also made a post somewhere. While the post was upvoted a few upvotes, the comment was at zero. Not negative luckily, but it still felt so like "why would this affect my karma in a negative way".

  5. "...The average user on this site is now just the same as the average tiktok...user, and what they consume here is just as shallow and braindead..."

    well said. it's kind of upsetting.

    i made this post because i googled "why doesn't the reddit website have an account switcher"

    google.com/search?q=why+doesn%

    i feel like if reddit desktop had an account switcher, that would sort of "fix things" to an extent, or mostly

  7. Yet another reason why I chose #Raddle over #Lemmy for hosting my #Touhou forum: reliability. You can often see lemmy.world (which has the largest Touhou community AFAIK at 132 subscribers and 96 submissions, vs https://raddle.me/f/touhou at 124 subscribers and 970 submissions) and lemmy.blahaj.zone (2nd largest 2hu with similar subscriber count but way less submissions) out of service. Might be due to too many users using at once, some server crash, idk.

    Whatever the reason is, the Lemmy software being so heavy has to be a factor. I mean come on, it requires JavaScript ffs.

    Raddle meanwhile is so lightweight (written primarily in an appropriate language like PHP like a sane web-facing service would, and DOESN'T require JS), and server reboots (and I only witnessed one in my entire 5 years on that site) take only seconds. Postmill is a champ!

  9. #Lemmy dev openly supporting the continued platforming of transphobia and racism in join-lemmy.org, lol.

    Also funny how when asked to remove bigots from the list they immediately thought of lemmygrad and hexbear (which are tankie instances). Proves that tankies are nothing but bigots like fascists

  14. draft - reddit place -

    "never forget what was stolen from us - r/save3rdpartyapps"

    Should this area be larger? a larger amount of pixels? Shouldn't it take up more space on the canvas?

    should we promote r/redditalternatives - lemmy, activitypub, kbin?

  19. Looking for Reddit alternatives? Check out Lemmy, Kbin, Beehaw, Tildes, or Squabbles. Each platform offers unique features like decentralization, customization, an emphasis on civility or thoughtful conversation, and various community sizes. Choose based on your preferences.

  20. I wonder how many adolescent comments on Mastodon originated on Lemmy or Kbin.

    When I first joined Mastodon I noticed an older, a more international, and more diverse demographic than what I experienced elsewhere.

    That still seems to be the 98% majority on Mastodon, which makes the strongly adolescent comment I come across occasionally really stand out.

  23. Kbin, Lemmy, the landed gentry, and the rise of “threadiverse” - Reddit users, mods and entire sub-reddits are moving, migrating to fediverse sites like #Kbin and #Lemmy. “…if they (Reddit) somehow cobble together enough moderators to keep going and people reluctantly stay there for a while, everybody will keep looking for alternatives.” #Reddit #RedditMigration #RedditAlternatives #RedditBlackout #Redditapi #SocialMedia #Fediverse privacy.thenexus.today/8-days-

  25. Today I deleted my #Reddit account. I've begun to dabble in the #Fediverse alternatives and after creating #kbin and #lemmy accounts, I realize that I don't understand how any of this works. I cannot accept that I've reached the age where I can't be taught new tricks. 😞

  28. Reddit leadership is moving to forcibly take our subreddits and our work. Let’s move it somewhere safe.

    Let’s start to replace our Reddit posts with “This content moved to the free spaces of the Fediverse.”

  29. I read years ago that the most successful corporate leaders have high emotional intelligence and often think about the future.

    The corporate culture of Reddit is to not think things through. Whether that is in how they handle *people* or lousy software engineering by not adequately testing capitalistic features like their automated site moderation which bans long term good users over mistakes.

    #Huffman is a man of average intelligence who got lucky as a young adult with a web site he put up. He isn't a thinker.

    He is a less successful copy of Mark Zuckerberg. They are both the Beverly Hillbillies of wealthy CEOs.

  31. Reddit Bots permanently suspended my 14 year old Reddit account. Reddit ignored my appeal not even bothering to give me a non-automated reply.

    Reddit really doesn't care.

    I lost all of the subreddits I created and ran. One of the ones I created I ran for 8 years and grew to nearly half a million members.

    Now I will see the same thing happen to other long term Reddit mods.

    When I tried telling my story on Reddit I got accused of lying or bringing on my loss myself. Some of those people may be voted out.

    This move may have unintended negative consequences for Huffman. Reddit has a corporate culture of not thinking things through.

    There will plenty of ugly things to watch from all sides.

  33. The biggest issues with #reddit #redditalternatives is that the content is not there yet.

    But thanks to the shitheads at #reddithq this is now changing.

    Thanks!

  34. I took advantage of this #reddark to look for #redditalternatives and my personal conclusion is that there are no real alternatives. Reddit is big not just because of its user base, but because it sustains a QA place.

    How many times have you not been looking for the answer to something and not ended up finding at least one related Reddit link?

  35. Som mangeårig bruger af bl.a. reddit og hackernews, så har jeg kigget lidt efter en fediverse version af dette. I dag faldt jeg over Lemmy, som ser ud til netop at udfylde det ønske:
    join-lemmy.org/
    Se det som Reddit men på en fedi instans - måske vi skulle have en sådan dansk/nordisk instans en dag?
