It’s also probably rewarding for people who can put half the time into something and get 2x the result vs just normal people grinding slowly.

Did you happen to vote for him or did any Chinese person vote for him?
I assume the more money they spend on advertising the more dubious and low quality they are, this seems to be the case most of the time I see ads for almost any product. Might as well be a red flag at this point.
hackernews has some good discussions and the source is right there. I see it as a bonus, if it was reddit I would feel differently.
Some people don’t like ableism in their communities either…
I mean you aren’t wrong but the way you go about writing comments leaves something to be desired.
Global warming denialists: died to nerve gas you say?
Could be a hard drive of normal pirated movies and going across the border. But encrypting it would be dumb anyway.
They already have tools to censor these things in a variety of ways to make it not look totally off, absolute scumbags.
Spez likely doesn’t want an alternative that is doing well being advertised on r/place, I wouldn’t be surprised if admins didn’t do some sussy deleting like they have before.
The only “good” thing would be more contributors but I sure af dont’ want to be federated with them.
Don’t like it personally you can’t trust these companies to do anything but be malicious actors, it might drive more users to the rest of the fedverse but there are huge risks and these companies have already broken laws time and time again.
I think it’s just a sign that echo chambers are bad, while yes you should block some communities that are bad actors or host illegal content. You shouldn’t block everything that you don’t like. Reddit almost feels the same way these days but from the left perspective. Politics does crazy stuff to people, it’s wild.
It won’t matter if you block communities from lemmygrad they will come to your posts and comments especially if they are pro west, leftist, capitalist, anti china etc…

If you are those things they literally hate you, if you post in their instance and are anti china you will be banned. It’s a giant echo chamber and they want to be able to post in your instances and communities. There is not point talking to them since they are hyper fixated on that, just browse their instance. Most other spicy instances at least know and tell their users to keep spicy shit inside their own instance and not take it elsewhere.
It would be nice if we could create post/communities that only sort comments on recency. I never did like the whole reddit upvote downvote button for comments.
True but you don’t really mindlessly scroll through those communities, you mostly go on r/all or other popular communities for that. I used to watch a ton of content on r/videos but then some days I would scroll through the front page and just not find anything relatable to me. I joined the site pretty early, like back when it was mostly tech people. So to me the site got worse content wise but if that was the worst of it I could of accepted just hanging out in niche subs.
I just visited r/all and mostly just found American politics and low effort content. It’s just not for me personally.
Go look over lemmygrad.ml and decide on how much you want to argue with passionate communist and tankies everywhere. Lemmygrad.ml will brigade posts and comments on other instances they are allowed on to spread their beliefs and they are not interested in the same happening on their own instance.
The thing with reddit is you would scroll and scroll and not find anything interesting, just little blips of dopamine in sea of inane content. I don’t like everything posted on lemmy but I find it far higher quality overall.
I wonder if reddit killing apps will results in a lot more lemmy users, time will tell.
Really gitlab went down the niche client path and no longer is a non Microsoft alternative? Sadge, at least I know about codeberg now.
