Someone say Gripen…

Good

They said the same thong about ssds for mass storage. Granted this tech is dramatically different. But we went from coffee table sized laser disks in the 90s to psp disc’s in the 2000s. That’s like a 1:100 size reduction and at a 1000 x data storage rate. Who knows what the future stores.

I think its a good idea. I hope this will allow nsfw to be broken up into better tags to block porn but allow other nsfw topics. Or vice versa.

I check out reddit every few days and tbh lemmy has the same amount of mainstream content. The only difference is that reddit niche subs are more active.

I think the fact that anyone can make the same community on a new instance diminishes niche communities more. If I pick a game on reddit ill find 2 or so instances with lots of use. On lemmy there will be 10 communities all mostly abandoned.

You can feel a difference on reddit though. Quality content and content numbers are greatly reduced from even a month ago.

I pay 150 a month for 20/10mbps (actual is more like 10/5) with a 1.5tb cap. I would stab a baby to get yours.

As someone who doesnt use twitter… yes this was totally worth it!

This is where I am at. Got a phone survey from comcast. Gave them 1 star on every category except how likely am I to continue to use comcast at which point I gave them a 10… because it’s a monopoly and it’s literally the only ISP in my area. I pay 150 dollars for 10mb/5mb service with a 3tb cap. If I go two blocks in any direction I can get 100mb/50mb for 40 bucks with no data cap. Even the exact same plan from comcast 2 blocks away is half the price with 8 times the speed and no cap.

and then those same people who want it banned close their curtains and start watching it.

It is, but they are spending less time on lemmy than they did on reddit.

Is there a way to check if a user account exists for my instagram account without logging in?

That’s my problem I have 8 cheat days a week :( Hard to lose weight that way!

Maybe pass on the lemmygrad.ml anything…

Its not just replacing mods though. Take the issue that happened with that snack sharing subreddit. The current mods held it for 10+ years. They built several tools that automated verification and rating people who shared with each other and it prevents a LOT of drama and scams. Then reddit replaced them because of the protest. But what about the automated tools that they personally made for “their” sub. The owner of those tools took them down. The new mod put them back up. They will die on the 30th anyways because they wont make the API requirements and if they are forced to stay up byt he new mods then the person who will have to pay reddit for the API usage is no longer the mod there.

This is not a unique situation either. Tons of people made auto moderation bots and tool over the past 16+ years. Most of those tools break today and if the mods are replaced then those tools are stolen from the owners. If the owners remove the tools reddit sees that as protesting and removes the mods.

It’s going to be a train wreck and a legal nightmare.

Even in a perfect world you are replacing mods that know the communities and have created them and worked on them for years with a new set of mods with no attachment or experience running those communities.

I thought it would be more painful to abandon reddit but jerboa and the explosion of content today has me less worried. I think reddit is now in serious trouble.
