I was convinced OP had made a typo.

You’re missing Voyager and Lemmios.

Until the next big social media fuck up, which neither Spez nor Musk can stop themselves from making.

You’re just here early, and the platform still needs work. It hasn’t even hit 1.0 yet.

No, because the author wants honesty. They’re still packing more batteries than these vehicles need, which is a problem.

Wouldn’t Tesla lying about range bee then minimizing their impact on the battery supply chain?

Not at all, they’re still stuffing their cars with lots of big batteries, and then lying about the range those batteries give.

If I had to guess based on years on reddit, Mastersmacks is on an unstable instance that’s causing him to double post. The other commenters aren’t bots, just unoriginal pranksters hazing Mastersmacks’ double post by copying and pasting.

It’s a dumb thing redditors would do all the time when someone accidentally double posted.

So when does Kevin Costner get to sue James Cameron for his lazy copy of Dances With Wolves?

I think we’re going to be seeing new waves of Reddit users on a fairly regular basis. Steve Huffman likes to roll these things out slowly in drips and drops, and it is very unlikely that this move alone will make reddit significantly more profitable to run. If he wants to do an IPO soon then he’s going to need to make some more choices that really annoy the users (banning porn seems like an obvious one, even though he’s said something like he’s fighting to keep porn on reddit). They’re going to keep cracking down in dumb and obvious ways on things and redditors will abandon ship just as soon as something they care about gets in some way messed with.

Don’t forget that redditors have left reddit in large chunks dozens of times in the past.

Yes, but also no.

At the end of a r/Place event the palette changes, and you can only place white pixels.

So yes, you could use a bot to write it again; but no, in reality you wouldn’t be writing anything.

Text based social media will never work. I don’t want to hear your thoughts, I just want to see you dance.

But you can block whatever communities you want. I’ve blocked a lot of different communities that have content I don’t like, and now they’re not in my feed.

You’re forgetting misfires can happen soon after ejaculation (and probably other things).

Everyone who left reddit or significantly reduced their time on reddit returning to constantly refresh a page advertisers won’t see that says “fuck spez” is helping to boost Reddit’s numbers. This isn’t just about whatever number of people left reddit for Lemmy.

You’re just driving up traffic and engagement on reddit, at a time when Huffman desperately needs to convince advertisers that reddit still has a lot of traffic. It’s saving the company financially.

So yeah, not a great protest.

I still want better content sorting options, though. I don’t want to have to block a subset of content just so that I can see a different subset. Like sometimes I want a meme, sometimes I want to see what’s going on in the world. There are dozens of communities for each of those.

I joined because I still want the same content without the asshole owner. I’m here for the different power structure, not because I hated Reddit’s content.

Because this is donation-funded. Having a big audience is the only thing that can ensure financial stability long term.?

And I don’t think content that is funny rather than informative is inherently bad or less important. There’s nothing wrong with this place being fun and not just some stuffy content classroom.

Right now those communities are more important than ever. They are what’s going to bring more people here and grow the fediverse. I don’t want to start hiding popular content at a time when Lemmy most needs to be popular.

Everyone’s definition of bottom of the barrel will be different, and nobody’s personal content preferences should be forced on the community as a whole. If you really dislike those communities that much you can block them.
