I had a couple of Motorola phones back in the day. Most recently I had a Moto Z2 Force, which had a shatterproof screen. I really liked that because around then I had my first kid and kids cause accidents all the time. LOL
I think that would defeat a piece of the point of a decentralized system. In the current design, what will naturally happen is that if one instance has all the good content on a particular topic, most users will gravitate toward it anyway. We can read across federated instances anyway so I, a kbin user, have no problem reading something on lemmy like this.
Then let's say one day lemmyworld@lemmy.world gets taken over by people who want to post stuff I don't want to see. If I miss how it used to be here, I could go make lemmyworld@kbin.social and it would be fine.
If you want an even dirtier approach, you'd make a browser extension that scrapes reddit as your browse it and forwards links you upvote to kbin / lemmy or whatever. This has the benefit of being indistinguishable from regular browser traffic as far as reddit is concerned so they won't notice.
Yep this is the truth. The vast majority of users just go there and scroll and click through stuff. They don't really care. They were inconvenienced by the blackout and want it back to normal.
The real consequences are that a significant chunk of the active and power users have left the site now.
I haven't deleted my reddit account either. I have definitely noticed that my feed on reddit has less interesting content now.
I was pleasantly surprised by HSR. I didn't expect much but it's been a good game to pick up. Once you're caught up on the storyline, the daily time commitment is pretty small so I'll probably continue it for a while.
This needs to be spread more. The right way to delete your content is to request a GDPR / CCPA type deletion. They will be liable for big lawsuits if they don't comply.
Executives aren't there to care about the product. They are there to lead the company to make a profit. That's what he's prioritizing. I don't really hold it against him personally myself. I'm just going to hang out here instead.
Just post them quotes from things like the Bible, Abraham Lincoln, or Ronald Reagan that directly contradict what the Republican Party does now.
People who are afraid vote for someone they perceive as strong. Thus you'll see that right-wing media and politicians are constantly trying to instill fear in people. They want their voters to think that their way of life is under attack and there are enemies everywhere. The only one they can count on is their fearless leader to save them!
Seriously, how can people still support these clowns? This is on the same sophistication level as "I totally did my homework, but my dog ate it."
