PabloDiscobar, hace 1 año en Anyone else a little disappointed how the blackout is going?

No, don't point redditors to our servers, let them find by themselves. It's a great filter. If someone is motivated enough to leave reddit then he will find us.

GhostCowboy76, hace 1 año en I think we should (politely) message major hobby subreddits that went public to go private again. It's important to continue the protest.

I could not agree with you more. I don’t feel like 48 hours is long enough. I woke up this morning and thought, “I can use Reddit again…wait why? Fuck Reddit they’re assholes.” And then proceeded to jump onto Lemmy and kBin hahaha. Peace out Reddit.

3 coffees bought, this guy ain't sleeping for a while.

OurTragicUniverse, hace 1 año en So what corners have redditors gathered to during the blackout?

So far I'm between Kbin, Tildes, Squabbles, Fark and Something Awful forums.

I'd like an invite to Tildes as they're pretty cool over there, plus that UI is so calming.

(Thank you for the invite!)

Visualization of the current situation. In fact, I don't know if lemmy is more of a mouse or a rat, but it probably doesn't matter.

PabloDiscobar, hace 1 año en Reddit communities with millions of followers plan to extend the blackout indefinitely

The reddit admins have an excuse for booting out the last mods, for stability reasons, since the blackout caused a downtime.

The last redditors will be modded by robots and what they say will be analysed by other robots for money. How fun.

OurTragicUniverse, hace 1 año en [CORRECTION] 7742 went dark out of the 8299 that committed. Interesting to note: 204 of the top 250 subreddits are dark (src: save3rdpartyapps.com).

8479/8838 subreddits are currently dark as of 15.09 BST (British summer time).

This is so heartwarming. Haha, fuck spez.

Haunting_Tale_5150, hace 1 año en Any other former redditors feeling grief?

I'm no longer in the sadness stage of grief, now I am angry. I have thought of all the stupid things they've done since I joined in 2018

First they made the awful new layout

Then they promised to implement css in new reddit, only to never do so

Then they introduced too many award variations, and made it so people could get them for free, removing what value the awards had.

Then they made customizable snoos, which while cute were uneccesary.

Then they introduced, barely advertised, then killed reddit cspan. Never heard of it? Can't blame you!

Then the introduced NFT avatars.

Then they did that awful april fools arg that was so hidden only a few did it and those who found the answer found it on discord. Also the answer was reddit was run on a literal potato which seems to be truer by the day.

Then they did this API shit.

During all that time where they could have introduced features that were useful to their app and fixing up the cruft with new reddit, they slaked off in order to increase profits. Only two features that were useful were ever introduced during 2018 - 2023: polls and gallery uploads. That's it.

So I am sad for the communities, but reddit itself? Nah.

conciselyverbose, hace 1 año en Reddit blaming website crashing on subreddits going private

This is hilarious.

They already were killing the experience by tanking the algorithm, and there was straight up no path to me ever using the mobile site or their horrendous app, but their full on meltdown in response to the backlash is next level.

flta, hace 1 año en Question: best #kbin server to recommend to users tomorrow?

How can I comment on a different server (like https://fedia.io/) without creating another account?
