Daniel Ek founded the company. He got to where he’s at by having lots of money. He got that money to found Spotify by being hired into other companies which were acquired. You’re describing “Executive Vice Presidents” that were promoted from within.
That was very helpful, thank you! I wonder if this will increase server load :D

Viewing from another instance, it is still pinned. Fediverse, go!
Done? Time to unpin? Are those stupid questions?
A typical Internet scammer would have at least pretended to offer some money before stealing the username.
I really like that “old Reddit” skin , it’d be even better if the mini-thumbnails were optional.
The current Lemmy web interface is nice, but as number of posts and communities goes up I’d like the more compact form.
Yeah I don’t blame Chinese people for their government’s actions. It’s like hating Americans for what Trump says. Simply invite real Chinese people to post on Lemmy and give their honest opinions on GreatFire, and stop hurting their feelings.
I was thinking the moderators are going to have to flag posts as AI-generated , I’m not trusting the people posting them to do it. But 100% agree with what you were saying, there should be a way for users and moderators to mark a post as “containing AI-generated content”, similar to NSFW; and then a way for us to filter “AI” like we would NSFW.
“Automation rather then manual work.” How can the filter operate, if “AI generated media” are not flagged manually?
A week ago I literally read articles about how .ml was switching to the (Russian-influenced) Mali government in a week, and did not even think about how lemmy.ml would be affected
That’s exactly why I want separate Ignore and Block options; there’s lots of nice communities that I’m not interested in updates but wish them well.
And I want to see what new communities pop up, and later Block or Ignore or Subscribe
How are you going to automate it without AI?
Kind of a feature request, but I wish “Ignore Community” and “Block Community” were different. Most of the ones I block seem decent, but something like youtube_feed I’d want to “Block” in a way that records my disappointment.
Making a good demo before a game is released can take away developer time from getting useful work done before release. But after its been released, the time pressure should be off and they could do a nice demo for more marketing.
Companies 100% have a right to skip demos and sell pre-orders. And people have a right to boycott those.
One good thing about Reddit, you could make a stupid community and it’d never go away. But it never caused anyone a problem either.
My solution is admin approval before community becomes listed. And some guidelines about conditions for approval, which are applied fairly.
Conditions for community removal should be pretty extreme, and also fairly applied.
Infinite Anonymous accounts should always be a thing, but rules could limit community creation to accounts with realistic behavior, that have enough activity to not be alts.
Which Matrix channels? I made an account on matrix.org before but didn’t see any channels that interested me.
For my old TV, the RED power LED is very helpful. Sometimes its on the wrong input, and very rarely something has gone wrong and I need to unplug-replug it in to fix the display. LED saves me clicking the power button when it’s already on.
It’s kind of big red dot, but not bright which I’m grateful for.
You’re right, Reddit has a lot of established communities. But if you were going to start a new community? I think it’s all downhill from here.
The letters I and C?
