Yes! I had to use tape to black out the LEDs on devices in my bedroom because I could see all manner of blinking lights once I dimmed the room lights.

Hah, this is what I liked the most about reddit - learning random bits of knowledge about things I knew nothing about. I’m glad to see this happen here too!

Or…not at all.

The taliban and Musk share the same values, then - to both of them, free speech means “you can say anything, as long as its what I like”.

There are a lot of vocal anti-threads people but theres also a lot of people(like me) who don’t care as much, I just seldom post about it.

Lol good on you for asking for it to be documented. Dumbass manager

Aggregated data is always scary.

You can still delete manually. I sorted my comments by top and edited them to gibberish.

Is that right? I was under the impression majority opened back up.

Tbh I don’t really care either way, I haven’t been on reddit for 3 weeks now.

Nobody’s ever gonna have an accurate answer.

I agree, reddit got too big to be fun. That said lemmy still needs to get bigger in order for communities to actually thrive.

They got 70m users in a few days. Mastodon has a few million after a year. I don’t think Meta cares about us at all!

You wouldn’t trade 1 year of your life for nearly 4 million dollars?

I’m not refusing to “get” anything, this is just a well-worn argument that’s been tested. Yes, there will be people who scroll past but the net outcome is still more clicks into the website. Literally the same thing has happened in other countries. Spain tried to do the same thing and lobbied the government to enact a very similar law, Google news pulled out, and then the news organizations started seeing drops in their revenues and they had to persuade the government to reverse decisions. What do you think is going to happen here? In the end everything will go back to the way it was, except some lobbyists and lawyers will be richer and Canadians/Australians will be inconvenienced by having one less news aggregator to use for a period of time.

I personally just sorted my comments by top scoring and manually changed some of my top comments to random gibberish! That doesn’t get restored!

The fediverse doesn’t need to scale to make money, but it needs to scale to a point where there are thriving communities. One thing I loved about reddit was stumbling upon a new sun full of people talking about the most obscure shit. Lemmy still has some ways to go to get there!

What?

Everything is a subscription model now. You wanna hear a song on Spotify, same deal

This is foreshadowing for the fact that his allergy was psychological.
