Actual answer, there clearly isn’t one ideal body type and that’s good for the species. I like the show Physical 100 because it does a good job showing that.
Personal answer: imagine the peak performance of humanity if balls weren’t on the outside!
I kinda like that PullPush needs to find and pay Ivan before arbitration commences. I kinda think Ivan is a random name intended to be unfindable so arbitration never starts.
I’m just glad they’re streaming on YouTube so I can see the shot show without visiting Reddit and pumping their numbers
My gut says this is an effort to make employees feel good after layoffs and protests, but also this looks to be someone to juice the monthly active users metric before an IPO roadshow or fundraising or something.
Ironically /r/place would be a good opportunity to win users to the official app, they probably should have done that before the API price changes to shake the tree of third party apps, so to speak.
Anyways, this is going to be 80% “fuck /u/spez” memes, a German flag, the Apollo logo, and a perfect OSU game logo.
I almost decided to make an account just to participate in the new /r/place, but then I would be supporting Reddit.
I only use it logged out via web. Right now there’s no alternative for a lot of things, but I’m not participating anymore, and I am trying to participate in the fediverse and build up some new communities.
Yep. The reason the fediverse exists is to solve the ownership problem of big social network companies (ranging from privacy issues, to greed, to political influence), so naturally the group that uses the fediverse first are the ones that feel most strongly about that issue.
It really isn’t hostile here 95% of the time, but on the topic of Meta it’s like poking a hornets nest.
I know my family and most people don’t really care about the privacy settings of Meta and I don’t bother trying to convince them to change, but I will always enjoy shit talking them to like minded folk online.
Instances aren’t too complicated, they’re just subreddits that live on different servers.
The Lemmy interface is confusing though (and kbin too).
Second woodworking. I picked up carving during the pandemic and I find it incredibly enjoyable, it’s probably my favourite hobby right now. I just put on Levar Burton Reads or a podcast or an audiobook and work away.
I want to learn how to carve with chainsaws next.
I don’t think the quality of the front page changed all that much in the last month.
It has long been screenshots of twitter (primarily WhitePeopleTwitter, BlackPeopleTwitter) for years, at least since 2016.
Also short form video is all the rage and Reddit is really pushing it, but that basically means it’s just all TikTok re-uploads (or crops of TikTok, or crops of TikTok of crops of Youtube). The new Reddit video player is really mostly screen recordings of things.
The last year or two once Reddit became really really mainstream has had a lot more repost bots though. They basically do two things: farm small subs and repost their content into larger ones, or pull content from the front page from 6+ months ago and repost it (even the top comments are often blatantly reposted). The bots coincide with reddit getting more into ads and mainstream advertisers.
But, there have been prolific reposters like Gallowboob for many many years.
If I hadn’t deleted my accounts, this us what I’d have done.
I still check in on my local subreddit, but I don’t participate.
That still makes it impossible for a user to ever delete all their comments, which is the CCPA complaint
Not to say Reddit is good, but Blind is the most toxic community I’ve ever seen and it has a very strong filter for bitter employees.
I’d take the discussion there with a grain of salt, though I expect morale at Reddit is pretty terrible right now.
The models are only trained up to 2020, they’re not updated with new data but the internal prompt and moderation system are updated to reflect changes in use and moderation escapes.
One thing I’ve noticed: if you land on Google from search around 20% of comments are from now deleted accounts. Try searching “best bike reddit” and see for yourself.
I think the hypothesis that power users are leaving is showing itself to be true.
Go team periwinkle!
Those were always something I looked forward to, after /r/place I don’t even remember any of them.
It was always clear Reddit would not change course.
The real question is whether the fediverse found enough room to germinate and if Reddit’s days are numbered.
I’m all in on the fediverse.
