As I see it now, the lemmy spirits have seen fit to have some sort of geometric score progression

I agree with your agreement therefore I am ENTITLED to upvotes

(Possible) room temperature superconductor and (possible) broad-band super-chemo in one week, eh?

Lemmy really needs filter words for times like these.

I’d also like to argue that they can’t talk about Reddit itself over there any more because of the pervasive manipulation and censorship so we should make space for that conversation over here.

I think you are right about the normal users but I think they alienated a big percentage of top mods. I think the consequences of that are just starting to manifest.

If memory serves, it’s in reference to the ancient mammal and also the metal band

Truth be told, I opened it up and saw the first item was “Assess your individual carbon footprint” then unleashed my salty

Damn they really hate their users

So basically Reddit sucks at ads too 😂

Do you know something we don’t know? Are they secretly courting a private buyer instead of actually going for an IPO?

Not an advertiser but they generally know % of views (“impressions”) to clicks (called click through rate) and percentage of clicks that turn into sales (called conversion rate).

For that reason, I don’t think they’re trying to get rid of human users completely, just the “troublemakers”.

I think they want to lead the “silent majority” users into a bot advertorial content hellscape where they control all the levers of power and everything is for sale.

Also, infinite layers of meta commentary and criticism of the meta and criticism of that criticism… I’m home

Never underestimate the power of shitposting

I hear he doesn’t really think much of his father’s moderation policies and he might be looking for social media alternatives

The curse of the zombie hot posts strikes again!

If we comment enough, we could get this zombie thread stuck in the ‘Active’ feed
