Feels like I'm back on Reddit circa 2015 LOL
If you don't already have an OpenAI account, don't make one. You don't need it. There are several other ways to access it without an accounts. Shamelessly stolen from Reddit:

You can run https://owntracks.org/ but you need a server to run it on.
That's incredibly naive.
That's not true. What they said was that the users who voted make up a tiny portion of the overall userbase.
However, you can't force them all to vote. You can only ask and accept the answer of the active ones that choose to participate.
Reddit must be exhausted playing these ethics games. Just admit that they want to kill 3rd party apps and they're not going to tolerate malicious compliance with the rules.
I see nothing wrong with using a Logitech controller for this purpose. They kept spares so even if they died somehow, you could just swap in another. And even if the batteries died, and you were a complete asshat and didn't bring any extras, you could likely just plug it in.
It's just hilarious that people are constantly talking about this controller and not the myriad of other legitimate safety red flags.
It abso-fucking-lutely is.
Unfortunately these companies have caught on to the fake phone number workaround and don't allow VoIP numbers anymore. Fucking shame on them. There are dozens of other ways to verify legitimate users that don't require giving out personal information for no reason.
Again, there is no trade-off. If you want to just plug your phone in and be tethered to a wall, you can still do that.
What's to stop Revolt from becoming the next Discord?
Edit: I just logged into my account to see that Revolt had removed a "server" for breaking foreign (unjust) laws. That seems to go against everything the fediverse stands for.
You could buy a delivery van for considerably less money and it is significantly more practical.
Not really, no
If you need a mobile gaming computer, buy a gaming laptop. If you don't, don't. "Trust me".
Yes, it absolutely is, because the US government does not require companies by law to hand over any and all information they collect to them.
So the truck made of cold-rolled steel with 240V inverter is not made for "people who do real work"?
No, for the same reason I haven't been interested in a long time; no promises for software updates. My Zenphone 6 got 1 update.
I don't buy anything except indie games anymore. Sad but every mainstream video game studio is trying to fuck their own consumers now in their own special ways.
It is a loss of information. That is not your fault. The blame lies at the feet of Reddit corporate management. The users benefit from your information, and even the visitors who find their way via Google or whatever. But the one who benefits more than anyone else is Reddit. And the thought of them benefiting from my and your contributions while fucking over their entire userbase for what amounts to nothing more than greed makes me sick.
then you can stop driving up prices for people who actually need one.
Yeah that's not really how that works LOL. I'm all for people not driving trucks, but if they stopped, that would make them MORE expensive. It's simple economies of scale. The more they make, the less each individual unit costs.
redact.dev is available on literally all major platforms
Most cities don't have adequate public transit. They'll put in a couple of buses and 1 rail line and be like "Public transit doesn't work, it costs millions of dollars and no one uses it!" without considering that people don't use it because it doesn't take them where they need to go. If it can't replace their car or guarantee them faster transit to where they're going, then what's the point?
The auto industry has successfully created a culture of personal vehicles as a sort of status symbol. If you don't have a car, people assume you're poor. Same way people will shame you if don't take out a $20k loan to buy your fiancee a giant diamond to symbolize your love for them.
Well it did because everyone on old Reddit already knew how to use it LOL
We just need a more elaborate labeling system. Instead of the binary SFW/NSFW, we could have several labels:
light nudity (boob, butt, etc)
porn
gore
death
etc.
Anyone who posts this sort of content without the proper labels gets banned.
This is not "publishing videos to Kbin", this is just embedding a link to another website. Publishing videos would likely tax the shit out of the likely-already-overworked Kbin servers.
Reddit is totally justified in this. The users are actively and maliciously trying to hurt Reddit. However, this is in response to many many completely unjustifiable actions from Reddit. Mostly the lies.
If they had just come out and said "we're killing the API in 6-12 months", as others before them have done, they would have seen much less pushback, but they had to lie over and over again about "not killing 3rd party apps" and "working with developers".
And different usernames/emails also. (Apple relay, Firefox Relay, SimpleLogin, etc.)
But DON'T store your 2FA tokens in your password manager. I don't understand why even the most reputable password managers allow this. If your 2FA is stored inside your password manager, you only have 1FA.
When tens-of-thousands-strong communities are voting overwhelmingly in favor of these "malicious" actions maybe we should look at what they are responding to.
Yes I mentioned what they were responding to in the comment you replied to.
I don't know that they are breaking any rules, but regardless they are malicious in intent, which is really what matters. And if you're going to argue otherwise, you're being completely disingenuous.
Not sure, sorry
I've no idea what that means
Oh shit! Celebrity Deathmatch is finally getting a new season!?
If 2 CEOs want to fight each other, I'll give them all the attention they want for that.
...is Discord trying to do federation? I'm confused.
Someone is in charge of Revolt, doesn't matter if it's a company or someone else. Someone is in charge of the servers. What's stopping them from ultimately selling the company? Reddit didn't start out as a corporation. Nor did WhatsApp, but after creating a trusted userbase they were sold off to Facebook to be exploited for data.
IT people love to talk about how "easy" it is to create and run your own server, but this is simply not true and they just lack awareness.
Because it's easier and cheaper than having a laptop. One less device to worry about.
The NSA collects all kinds of information. That is an absolute pittance compared to the amount of data collected when it is required by law...
Like this is not that complicated.
Props to them if they can make it work where other much bigger apps have failed. I assume this will also fail.
Spending less money doesn't necessarily mean you "cheaped out". Spending more money does not guarantee reliability.
You may not have liked it and it may not have been great but it likely got the job done perfectly fine.
you have to have a lot of linux/programming knowledge to do even the simplest things like installing/updating your software
So, pretty much like any other distro
Weird, every distro I've tried either has no management, or doesn't work. Just spins around loading. "Uninstalling" packages does nothing but remove them from the package manager.
Does this really need an explanation?
Non-replaceable batteries provide zero benefits.
Swappable batteries allow you to just carry extras instead of being tethered to a charger. I used to literally never plug my phone in. Just swap batteries one or twice a day.
It's the first component to die in most phones, and people can't be bothered or don't realize you can have them replaced, so they just throw them in the garbage. That's why they started doing it in the first place.
