  • I'm sure it's not a unique idea. Lots of really smart and clever people think like me after all :D

  • That is what a bot would say! (Also the post history shows it's almost definitely a bot)

  • Im not trying to discredit your arguments. You just seemed like a bot. (and your post history shows you are almost 100% a bot) I feel that your arguments discredit themselves without any help from me.

  • My contribution to this new logo.

  • Counter rebuttal... no. Fuck SA and fuck everything SA stands for. I dont want them in my tech. I get they are diversifying but they can fuck right off. Anyone who accepts their money will end up having to accept their agenda and I'm ready to boycott any company that does.

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

  • This

    Jump
  • That is literally what happens every year with r/place. Hundreds of thousands of bots placing pixels based on pregenerated images. Then the bots fight each other. Then reddit uses their own bots to censor things or mod tools to drop a bunch of random pixels over the top of images to wipe them out.

  • Found it. Had to update my version so it would appear in the swttings.

  • How do you turn off volume navigation. I can no longer adjust video volume.

  • I'm using firefox on my phone and it still does it. I've also tried other browsers. They all do it. Normally you get about 3-5 min before the popup arrives and then you have to clear your cache to get another 5 min.

  • Doesnt work on my phone. It knows it's a phone and pushes the mobile ap even on old.reddit and even with desktop mode.

  • The only problem with that, and its not really a big problem yet, is that reddit is using your content to generate money for themselves in increasingly unethical methods. Previously you could see and interact with content without logging in from many different platforms. Now, on mobile, you can only interact with it on one platform (their own app that forces ads etc) and increasingly you need to be logged in to access it (so they can better track your movement and feed user specific ads). It is not unlikely that in the future they rework reddit premium to prevent people from seeing free content.

    So the end result of your content could be that reddit uses it to take advantage of someone in their time of need by forcing them to pay for a month of reddit premium just to get help with their issues which you provided a solution to for free.

    Now, that's a stretch but only because I dont see how reddit can force a premium subscription on people without everyone rioting and burning the place down. But they seem to have killed all 3rd party apps which was also something I didnt think could possibly happen without bloodshed and it did easily.

    With all that said, I didnt delete my comment history either because I personally feel that it's better to help people than to hurt reddit. But at the current direction and speed reddit is heading I think it's not out of the question that I would in the future change my mind and delete everything.

  • I feel like this is a good time to dust off the reddit account and help make a giant advertisement for lemmy.

  • A modest proposal. Which Lemmy server can finish with a prominent place in the r/place final image!

  • This is fair, but I disagree on the fact that it isnt controversial enough!

  • There was that video of a delivery guy re-cutting a pizza to do this... It's why I dont use any delivery services.

  • and what have I got to show for it?

    Another day older and deeper in debt.
