I love IDLES, don’t know how they didn’t make the list. Never Fight a Man with a Perm was playing on my commute.

I honestly wouldn’t mind seeing an extension to the IRC spec to bring in reasonable discord-like functionality to some servers. It’s time we start moving back to open standards from walled gardens.

I’ll stop buying apple when I can get a multi-core arm machine that’s not made of scrapbin plastic from a traditional PC manufacturer. I have two M1 machines running Asahi Linux and they’re excellent computers.

I’ll mail a 10mm to whoever gets one off the ground

Youtube has put me onto a lot of Australian stuff lately, such as Smoko (The Chats) and Hertz (Amyl and the Sniffers) as well as some more indie stuff like Wet Leg. I might just be old but these bands are all new to me and I love it.

It’s funny they chose that tactic to promote, seeing as walmart corporate will do all but burn the building down whenever there’s a successful union drive or anything that looks like it could manifest one. They’ll close the store indefinitely for ‘cleaning’, toss any spoiled inventory, and hire an all new crew. So not quite burning it down, but they’ll definitely footgun themselves to prevent any worker choice. Burning it down would do all the work for them.

From their statuspage:

“Reddit Failing to Load Identified - We’re aware of problems loading content and are working to resolve the issues as quickly as possible. Jun 12, 2023 - 07:58 PDT”

Literally the two subs are identical in content posted for the last several months

I love mine, it just works. I have Linux, macOS, and Windows devices printing to mine flawlessly.

Sounds like a skill issue, Mr. CEO

I love the Tasting History series so much.

Bringing the r/place concept here would be cool, perhaps different instances could all do something similar of their own? Federated r/place sounds fun. :^)

I don’t think so, but I could be wrong. I guess the “groups” functionality of Facebook could technically qualify it as such, but its primarily aimed at being a social media website. I’m not 100% on it either, because there’s a lot of overlap between platforms and their functionality.

So my understanding is Reddit, or specifically u/spez, tried to claim that the Apollo developer was blackmailing them over the entire API pricing debacle. The Apollo developer posted the audio and transcript of the call with Reddit showing they were lying. Now they’ve claimed his App is poorly developed and making wasteful amounts of API calls- so now he’s posted a large swath of code online to disprove that also.

tl;dr reddit CEO caught in a couple lies

Make sense. Deleting a post probably just toggles a ‘deleted’ flag in the database and doesn’t touch the post contents. Writing over the comment, however, would actually change the data. Then you can proceed to delete it.

It’s been such a slow decline but the writing has been on the wall for a while. Maybe this is the push everyone needs to take a chance on a new platform.

It’s in the name, mostly. It aggregates content. You can post links, text posts, images to specific communities and have them displayed in a feed of your communities of choice. That’s what Digg was and Reddit is, and kind of what Lemmy is doing- except on the Fediverse.

Such a great instance name

iirc they just went ahead and implemented a large swath of the policy changes anyway, and hoped nobody would notice the doublespeak.

I just use the email metaphor and it usually gives people a rough idea how it works. It seems more complicated than it is.
