Welcome to all you new folks! Water is great!
I would say, it’s less sad and more liberating to be honest with you. I’ll certainly continue to use Reddit in the long term, but it will be much more in frequently than it was in the past. Moving forward I think this is going to be the primary place where I spend my time. It’ll be cool to see it grow from what it was just a month ago.
Right. I’m loving this. It is a huge breath of fresh air. Obviously the people hosting Lemmy.world have to pay for this though. If they put out a subscription that was minimal in cost I would pony up even now with the jank and all. This place is worth investing my time and energy into I feel.
I had an R-Zone when I was younger. It was an absolute piece of shit. My mom found it at a garage sale. We had a racing game that I remember and then I remember like some K-mart ass style fighting game too.
Why do you feel LinkedIn is creepy? Just curious. Out of all the social media presence I currently have LinkedIn seems to me like the only one that is actually benefiting me. I post very little on there unless I am promoting a professional achievement.
That is exactly what’s happening to me too. It seems to be random. But I’ve started paying closer attention as I navigate around so I’m hoping to maybe identify any consistency and what would be causing it so I can report it.
I was having that same issue.
No one is really insulated. The way I explained it to someone is Reddit was like a girlfriend you dated for 10 years. It was great and it was mostly on autopilot. You both enjoyed each others company. Every so often you would get in a fight but it was never anything too extreme. The API change was like a massive blow up where you two finally say things that cannot be taken back. Afterwards your relationship isn’t really the same. It is not necessarily damaged beyond repair, but one of the two in the relationship is just sorta sitting there thinking “This aint worth it anymore” so they go on a break to take some time. Many people will go back. Many will call it quits. Some will go between Lemmy and Reddit. But things are just not going to be the same moving forward.
Yeah there are a lot of communities out there where there is just a bot that appears to be mirroring what is posted on the subreddit it mirrors. There are a ton of posts like that I have seen.
It is not very good. I’ve used Bard, BingAi and ChatGPT to write VBA code. I can paste the same prompt into all three. ChatGPT usually gets it right. Bard rarely does without really breaking it down and explaining what I want like I am explaining to a 5 year old.
This place has existed for a lot longer than the last month.
I would pay $50/year to use Apollo. No question. I wouldn’t take $50/year to use their first party App. I would rather just not use Reddit.
Well you have a binary choice. Trump or Biden. Both will fund genocide.
