I want this to succeed so badly. I truly feel like it’s going to be sink or swim and will reflect how all enshitification efforts will play out.

Band together now and people see there’s a chance. Fail and we are doomed to corporate greed in every facet of our lives.

That’s fine, they’re the people we don’t want over here. They’re part of Reddits problem.

The point was to take us riiiiiiiiiight up to the point where there is not point but not cross it explicitly.

Where we go from here is probably downward spiral because the corporate world maxed out profits during Covid and now somehow has to still show quarterly improvements.

There is no end to the ass fuckings in sight.

The willingness of people to lick the boots of their oppressors is scary as fuck.

At this point I don’t know how I got here and where I’m going and I’m too afraid to ask

IBM started in my town and destroyed the whole town. They dumped toxic chemicals all over the place and then sold off and left this place a ghost town.

Most of Reddits content is stolen off of Reddit. Then the reposted Reddit content is stolen by buzzfeed.

I hope someday instead of google, I go to a website that has the fediverse indexed and directs me right to a Lemmy thread with my answer.

Google is shit, Reddit was what I searched for everything on and now Reddit is shit.

Let’s fucking go Lemmy I have faith in you

Reddit has been full of bits for at least a year

It’s not just tech solutions. It’s solutions for everything.

It’s legal as fuck here. Maybe the most legal place in the entire United States.

Problem is, the sticker stores are way cheaper and the quality is often better and there’s usually not a long line where the worker behind the counter has no idea what they’re selling.

I walked into the legal shop last week asking for full spectrum gummies. The dude obviously had no idea what that even is; so I said not distillate based. He, without even thinking to look directly down, says that he’s pretty sure they’re all distillate based.

So I left cause distillate gummies are ass and it turns out they did in fact have full spectrum gummies. (Overpriced though)

NY needs to figure out their shitty products

No context needed it’s a BMW.

Just rip them in the comments and boycott their brand

Edit: or even meme them into the ground. I could start a parody account if I saw someone advertising. I could pretend I’m them and align myself with nazi values in satire ads hypothetically.

I bet most Reddit employees are

I’m not buying a phone that rats me out.

Show me you have my back apple / android

I wrote him in and probably will again

Meh it’ll just be overrun with non original content by people reposting shit from Lemmy

Maybe this is a stupid question but following that link on my phone takes me to a place to login on Reddit.nl, my username doesn’t work there. I also tried myusername@my.instance and it didn’t work. So how’s the best way to subscribe to these?

Pitchforks

Thought of a friend today when I heard a song, got a text from friend I haven’t heard from in maybe a year, he’s in town and we’re grabbing drinks because he heard a song and thought of me too. Life be doing life

Even worse it’s an unpaid advertisement.

I have a feeling this was upvoted by bots. There’s another post about how easy it is to see who upvotes things so maybe there’s someone clever enough to make a script exposing bots and banning them?

Like 92% of people saw this and upvoted it?

Idk about you but I had a flashback to being on the official shit Reddit app

And I’m here more because the content is actually funny instead of the garbage dump Reddit became.

Yep and we have a right to not use their shit services and start a new one while the investors get pissed

Reddit has been archived places other than Reddit

Yesss brother

Soda is gross once you give it up for a long time too! People can start with seltzer if they still need the carbonation. They can’t expect soda replacement from it but after a while it’s what you’ll prefer anyway.

It’s hard to imagine the library of Alexandria had more info than Reddit

Not a developer but one time I decided to make my own game and I got one character sprite done for walking to the left and it took me 18 hours.

My best friend is a senior developer and one of the brightest people I know. I’ve seen him code for me some arduino sketches that are absolutely next level (even after spending about 400 hours getting decent at python).

He’s currently 3 years into developing his game and has a few more years to go.

I’m not saying it’s impossible I’m just gonna say that maybe you should start small and see what the time commitment is and such and make sure you enjoy it enough to buckle up for a few years, overcome frustrations and are able to see it through.

If it’s your absolute dream it is entirely possible, just don’t let the length of the road to get there be your deterrent. One step at a time and then onto the next problem or step.

Then what’s the purpose of other countries doing the same?

Probably yes. The real question is why now are US senators asking the defense department about what craft they have?

The newish committee AARO is basically useless but there are whistle blower protections in place now for anyone who comes forward with information about crash retrieval programs etc.

David Grusch gave a multiple hour interview with Ross Coulthart last month as one of these whistleblowers. News Nation ran an edited hour of that interview. He makes some bold claims and nobody has really come forward to discredit him since. There are allegedly more whistleblowers to come.

What’s the acceptable number of murders for you in this scenario?

Uhhhhh he was a politician, don’t they all?
