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

OurTragicUniverse, 1 year ago in 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!)

cody, 1 year ago in Daily traffic visits to the top two #Kbin and #Lemmy servers over the last 28 days, up until June 11th.

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, 1 year ago in 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.

I keep seeing that a lot are going to stay black indefinitely, which is awesome. I also read that a admin took away a head mods powers, and gave them to a lower mod, and then reopened the specific sub (which I currently don’t remember which, but it wasn’t small).

I feel like we will see a LOT more of the admins handing power over to the people who want power, or want to stay on Reddit and don’t care about any of the downsides/drama.

OurTragicUniverse, 1 year ago in [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, 1 year ago in 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, 1 year ago in 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.

Asenath, 1 year ago in Multiple reddit alternatives

I'm on here, Lemmy, Squabbles, and Fark. Fark doesn't seem to be getting much traction though.

flta, 1 year ago in 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?

Other_Goblin, 1 year ago in Difference between kbin and lemmy?

The UI on kbin is awful I can't even tell what I'm doing on the mobile site. The desktop site infinitely loops the cloudflare thing lol. Never even seen it.
