I use(d) it to follow 1 guy for updates about my favorite sports team and transfers etc.
But he introduced a new site (today) and is actually gonna quit the platform to go to twitch or somewhere else, so i’ll say goodbye to another social media account after today.
Reaffirming of what?
That twitter is a walking corpse?
My timeline is full of bots, spam and trolls and it looks like it gets worse with the day.
If Spez likes that future for Reddit then sure.
“Meta and met with them after signing an NDA”
This should tell quite enough.
Yes. Rotating between Lemmy & Kbin.
Actually getting work done during the day also.
Reddit on Mobile is completely dead to me and I will only use it on my desktop for specific searches if the info is not available elsewhere (last resort).
0.1% of the time wil be spend on Reddit, with an ad blocker of course.
Why should it be ads?
There are so many different ways to have some form of monetization that is not intrusive.
Running Ads is not the only way to keep the lights on.
I registered and got through yes.
I registered just before the influx of users from reddit I assume and I am gonna be honest I didn’t put in a full essae.
I think Beehaw is a great instance who shows what the Fediverse can be and is about.
I love that they actually shout out 1 of the instances instead of Lemmy or Kbin as a whole.
I used “F1 lemmy” multiple times in google already and the top post(s) were links to the F1 lemmy.
It works.
What!? Can you link to the quote?
Yes who is gonna post the first AskMen about;
“What is the sexiest sex you ever sexed?”
Edit;
For people interested in Fragrances, I did my part and gonna start to post more often;

Suggestions are welcome!
This is the shitposting I live for
"Long story short, my takeaway from Twitter and Elon at Twitter is reaffirming that we can build a really good business in this space at our scale,”
For the people in the back who think the situation is salvable and are caring about the “communities”.
It is gonna be wild the coming months.
“In a pinned message on r/funny, the biggest subreddit to go private before recently reopening, a moderator implored Reddit “to listen to its moderators, its contributors, and its everyday users” and asked it to “not tacitly enable bad actors by working against your volunteers.” r/Apple also recently reopened after being closed out of fears that it would be forcibly reopened. “We want the best for this community and have no choice but to open it back up — or have it opened for us,” a moderator wrote. Another r/Apple mod is resigning in protest of Reddit’s actions.”
Imagine having no spine, except that 1 mod (kudos to that person).
Why even bother to blackout if you are gonna bulge after the first threat?
Do even the subs themselves thought that 48 hours was enough to do something? Can someone be that naive?
I thought the subs were actually gonna abide by what the community wants?
How is opening up helping the community when you voted to be down indefinitely just 1 day ago? It is actively screwing them because it shows Reddit is right.
Following it up with a pinned message telling how you still not agree, b*tch please.
Just stop with the posturing then and bend over for Reddit already.
Should we care that other people still use reddit?
Do you have to chose one or the other?
Why are people so hell bent to “take over” Reddit?
I found an alternative in Kbin and Lemmy that suits my needs and focuses on user experience and growing communities instead of growing the pockets of a handful of people.
I decide to not use Reddit anymore because the upper echelon can go fuck themselves.
Is it so weird to have a set of values and stop using a service/product, because they cross the boundaries one has set for themselves?
I have used Reddit for more than a decade and I haven’t missed it all.
I am here because I enjoy it and not because I have a deeper desire for Reddit to evaporate out of nowhere.
