No?
You can also take the smug armchair psych somewhere else, guy.
Yeah I have no idea who the tip even goes to sometimes.
I’m those cases, I assume, straight to the business. And then it’s like why am I volunteering to buy this at an additional markup?
what I get from this explanation is that trees are the crabs of the plant world
Agreed!
People keep talking about the appeal of the megacommunities on Reddit, and I’m like… were they really that great? There was so much noise to sift through to get to anything real. Having decent discussions or building communities? Maybe if you’re in a small niche subreddit, but otherwise no.
Absolutely. I don’t think it’s really sunk in generally that the Fediverse is intended to operate fundamentally differently from a centralized system. An instance selectively (de)federating is how it’s supposed to work.
If the platform running as intended kills it, then there are big problems. I don’t think it will, but the user culture does have to change and incorporate knowledge of how the system works. We need to not have threads saying the Fediverse, a platform built on decentralization, needs to centralize as much as possible to survive.
Get paid up front or not at all, with this guy. I dunno how anyone doesn’t know this by now.
There seems to be quite a few folks here that basically want the Lemmyverse to be Reddit with new management
That was wild, yeah. Social media sites shouldn’t lock down APIs because it’s all user generated and LLMs should be given free reign to harvest user content for their own proprietary ends?
I guess I can agree that these two ideas aren’t fully contradictory, but there’s a lot of friction between these two conceptions of user’s rights to their content/data.
look, those boots aren’t gonna lick themselves
