About 10 years here. That’s why I had Apollo. I filtered out all that shit. Everything you could imagine. Hundreds of things hidden.

Eventually I had a home feed of crafts, patientgamers, every cat sub you can imagine, bread, and a bunch of other peaceful things.

Before that I was just so angry all the time and arguing with redditors. I won’t go back to all that.

They could have fixed the clutter and still accumulated money. They’re really bad at business

That’s messed up. I wouldn’t put up with that shit. It’s like counting digital calories

Are you serious? Holy shit. I haven’t seen any at all. But just the thought that someone is posting it. I hate people sometimes.

I agree. I think that he knew that Russia was going to attack Ukraine. (It is weird how trump got involved with Zelensky during that infamous phone call.)

Trump tried to get us (US) out of NATO so bad because then we would be free to use our military power in favor of Russia against Ukraine.

I used the good old toaster in our closed department one morning just like always. But that morning my toast caught fire!

My coworker put it out but the smell of burning toast permeating the entire floor of the building. Where the public walks around.

Of course I hear “is something burning?” “Mommy I smell toast!” Etc.

We pretended it didn’t happen when security came around. “What? I smell it too! That’s so weird!”

Needless to say toasters were banned after that. We ended up getting a small toaster oven that’s better quality. Probably still not allowed but we like to live on the edge.

Man the hits just keep in coming.

I hope more big subs follow suit. But part of me knows many won’t.

I’ve seen a few of what they’re talking about. Sometimes there’ll be a couple random words that make no sense together at all. Or incomplete thoughts.

One of the most recent in the App Store:

Title: I’m going back to work on my Contents: We will have the opportunity

It’s weird.

I never used my account. I hate twitter. However, I love hearing about the failures of Elon Musk.

Well damn. Thank you. Saving this! I have Ublock origin already. I’m excited about the other suggestions too!

Pinterest is half the fucking google image search. Bye! And the other half is shopping ads. Google can kiss my grits.

I definitely saw a lot more of those. RateMe and AmIUgly especially! I thought it was so weird. I also didn’t think anyone else noticed. It seems like very tiktok-y sorts of subs to me.

Regardless of whether you like Reddit or not why would you like spez? He’s a horrible business professional who idolizes a worse business professional.

That is spooky. Of course I had to go look it up. Contrary to that first part of the Wikipedia page, this is no longer conspiracy. It’s becoming the reality.

That’s Reddit for real now. Especially with the rise of AI and similar

That’s funny. There is one post for your enjoyment surrounded by ads and suggestions. My goodness.

I agree! I keep saying the same thing. I think he was allowed to kill himself. They put him on suicide watch as a suggestion to him. That way their hands are washed of him by his own hand.

I put a link below but here is another to a screenshot I took. https://imgur.com/a/QDDcxk8

That’s great! Now you don’t even have to go to r/cyberbooty for your 2077 booty needs.

Apparently child-labor is on the rise. More kids, more money to make in their cheap exploitative labor. 14 states have proposed or enacted laws rolling back child labor age restrictions.

I used it back a while ago. For me it was alright, except I couldn’t filter out keywords and phrases and subreddits. That was unacceptable.

I went looking for an app that would let me do that. Suddenly no more rage bait. I never looked back after Apollo. I wonder if the app has that basic function yet. I have no intention of finding out.

I saw how ad ridden it is. I could do a few ads but from what I’ve seen there are just too too many.

Same as you. I have avoided it this far. I think Imma back up for a little while. I cannot, cannot see that shit.

I’ll just go outside and read a book.

The US over here was supposed to be that way, with the separation of church and state.

As you have likely seen—due to the ceaseless amount of news about the US everywhere—that is a fucking joke now. Our country is overridden by the devils evangelical spawn.

I don’t know how to actually read this. Is the dad saying the kid is an incel? It’s hard to tell. Am I too sleepy?

We go to a chain called Cinemark and the tickets are far cheaper than AMC. I think for 6 people on opening night with heated D-Box seats (the kind that move and shake and vibrate) directly in the middle of the theater cost me $100. Plus I have a membership so free tickets and no fees too.

If we went with regular seats we would have gotten them at around $10 per person. Heated recliners all around.

I feel spoiled honestly.

That game still looks so good. Recently played it. It aged well.

Of course you are right. I wanted to go to other shows this year but they were too much. I chose the one I wanted most and went for it.

It’s the tone of comments with regards to Beyoncé specifically that I expected on Reddit and I suppose now here. I don’t get that on other social sites or irl. I find it odd.

You know, in reality, there were plenty of cheap tickets still available facing the stage. Thinking about it now I can’t see a real reason to buy these you talked about…

I fucking hated it. So obnoxious the way they had all those bots keeping it up.

I’m using Lemmy a bit too much actually lol. I need to limit it.

There are lots of negative reviews but have five stars attached. I don’t get it.

Did y’all move to discord? It seems like it would be a good place for your convos

It just so happens after I left Reddit I went on tiktok a little more to check it out. And a few communities moved to discord.

Interesting…

Watching this overall situation in regards to social media develop is fascinating.

Imma be honest. It sounds like you’re describing a hotrod lol

I love it. This is really cool!

Definitely not. I would peruse Home for just a little bit, but mostly I’d swipe over and go to specific subs. The past 3 months I only logged in to upload chapters of a story. Reddit had become pretty stale for me.

Really? What’s it like?

I know. It was like almost $300! I was already balling out of control buying Beyonce tickets. I couldn’t go any further even though Jill is my girl 😩

I paid $400 for my lovely parents to see Kem and Ledisi! Ticket prices are just crazy right now.

But truly, I want to see people while I can, while they are here. My mother said her biggest concert regret was not paying to see Prince when she could.

That’s awesome! You are lucky! I can only imagine.

If ever in my lifetime I get the chance to see Stevie Wonder, I will do it.

Don’t worry I understand. I agree. I wanted to see Jill Scott but the tickets were nuts. The first time I saw Beyoncé the prices were not like this. Nowadays it’s too many gatdamn fees! I don’t regret my tickets but I’m also mad that Ticketmaster basically has a stranglehold in ticket sales.

Speaking of indie bands I’m definitely going to start seeing and supporting more of them. Small venues, intimate atmospheres, affordable prices.

Oh now this is fascinating. Especially after spez has been sucking Musty’s dick. He is such a pick-me.

I’m about to grab all kinds of gourmet popcorn to watch the train wrecks coming from these CEOs.

Oh yeah! Platinum member over here! 25% concessions is great!

We see a ton of movies all the time. I buy other people tickets and send the QR and they send me the cash because I save on fees.

My membership is so worth it.

Just made 10 years. Gatdamm I have 184,742 karma over there. I didn’t realize lol
