I’m using the same Reddit avatar because I still think it looks cool. Shame on Reddit for their poor leadership though.

I mean I don't mind the current state of Lemmy right now, in fact I'm actually quite liking how it is right now. It'll probably take a lot of time to even get on the same level as Reddit if it ever does, however I'm seeing so much users, moderators, and devs who are committed to making this platform work and that in and of itself is amazing to see. Things like this actually show there is a human side to technology and that we can make it work. Anyways that's my food for thought.

Can you add "Why YSK" to the start of your text body? This is for readability purposes as stated in Rule 2.

This is why I'm a big supporter of physical media if possible. Sure the actual game may not be on there or something because it's too big or whatnot, however with what the hell is going on with digital companies in the modern videogaming world, yeah no they simply just can not be trusted much with the amount of power they hold. This includes but not limited to: Ubisoft, Steam, EA, Epic Games, etc.

EDIT: Yeah GOG is fine apologies for that, however the well majority of games in the digital world are simply just licenses that these companies have control of.

I personally moved to Bitwarden from 1Password due to the cost, and I believe for an average user, Bitwarden is definitely the way to go as it is very value-friendly (at $10 USD/year), and it is open-sourced unlike many other proprietary password managers. 1Password may get more features, however it being $3.99 USD/month, many users don't need the extra security features and I strongly believe that common sense is the best security for any user.

Who could've known that Reddit all along was a faceless corporation that makes horrible decisions!

It may seem a lot of work, but it gives people tasks to do in their free time and contribute to a community and makes sure that everything is in balance and order as people want to see these communities thrive.

This has happened way too many times, especially in many books. This makes doing a lot of my assignments a lot more difficult and often has dissuaded me from reading. I am trying to get better at reading, so I got myself some more books (that I'll read sometime in the future maybe) and combining it with some music or white noise to prevent me from zoning out.

wait a second here, what did you say?

I'm assuming just current reddit admins are going to take over or getting some certain moderators from subreddits (that aren't even of high ranking) to take over and remove the higher rankings from power, which then they will be the ones reopening the subreddits.

Now that I read it this sounds like a coup d'état

This is what I said to another person:

Oh god... trusting internet users for a democracy, and don't get me started on the trustworthiness of the Reddit staff themselves.

Can you add "Why YSK:" to the start of your text body as stated in Rule 2? Thanks!

edit: added YSK

Hey, I have to delete your post as it does not fit in this community due to the fact that it is not a question and therefore irrelevant to !asklemmy@lemmy.world. There should be other communities that would welcome general posts like this!

I left Reddit after the hypocrisy coming from the leadership at Reddit and with their decisions. After the AMA from Spez, it was the final nail in the coffin for my decision to leave Reddit, instead of taking accountability and owning up to their mistakes, they had completely attempted to justify their actions and seeing the developers' work go down the drain was heartbreaking, and I stand in solidarity with them. Even though I might be some minor spec to the entirety of Reddit, I still feel it's important to stand up for the community, even if it doesn't matter to them.

I mean the chances of that happening may occur to some instances, however because Lemmy is decentralized, it will probably not happen to the whole thing and I'm confident in the leadership of Lemmy.
