Maybe it’s easier if all your resources aren’t slowed down by board meetings solely for the purpose of “how can we monetize this”

That’s what happens when you put profit ahead of function. Putting the cart before the horse something something

I wish something in the license of activity pub could have prevented corporate espionage. Make no mistake, meta will absolutely dominate and kill off the fediverse

I’m no fan of a lot of what isreal does but yes, sabbath and Manamakahn seem to be both middle eastern and pushing their articles hard around here.

agreed. as others have stated. Transparency. But also, new software, new tech (in a way, the fediverse/activity pub), and hopefully a new beginning. Happy to be here. If not technically on the ground level (lemmy has been around for a short time before we knew reddit was going to implode), close to it!

Thanks, installed. But still rooting for Memmy too! Love everyone who is stepping up to the plate for the mobile app scene!

Memmy is updated almost daily at this point, the App has come a long way just this week even

“The ongoing strike, spurred by Huffman’s plan to charge fees to third-party apps that serve up Reddit content,”

Then it goes on to talk about commercial AIs scraping reddit data through their api for deep learning for free.

But the reality is people weren’t upset about the api charge, they were upset at the exorbitant price they released. There are so many other ways to be fair and to stop commercial use if that was really an issue. Plus, I wouldn’t be surprised if reddit is being scraped without the api from the front facing website anyway.

Then, reddit double downed and spez just made a complete ass of himself. I could have done a better job as CEO, that guy is unqualified and delusional. If he stays at the helm reddit will surely sink

This is what’s beautiful in open source. I wonder if any one has had any luck making the old.Reddit nesting style yet

Honestly, I brought up the issue in a top 1% subreddit by population and I got downvoted into oblivion. The few that would engage were just like “stfu”, and “lol no” and “I don’t care”

ok, so it’s not just me. Hope it gets resolved soon!

god it’s terrifying and so true. I didn’t realize how addicated I was to apollo until muscle memory just kept clicking the damn app!
