Hadn’t realized how reliant upon Reddit I’d become for news and interesting things until after it turned to shit and I quit it. I’ve rediscovered RSS for ex., using reader apps to scan sources directly and read without all the noise—that actually came from someone’s recommendation here in the comments. I’ve found...
just a reminder that much of reddit’s collective zeitgeist up to sept 2021 is available via chat-gpt, you just need to ask it the right way....
For context: I was a much more ignorant person back in 2014 than I am today. My views then do not reflect my views now (tw: Fatphobia, Sexism, Sinophobia, transphobia, Z-propaganda)...
Haiii haii hello
Hi everyone! I’m in my late 20s and I’ve been reminiscing on my young adult life and what I like/don’t like. One point that has been coming up for me is close, vulnerable friendships. I used to have a few friends who I was very close to a few years ago, who I could talk to about deep life stuff, big emotions, vulnerable...
Seems like a good portion of the activity in the communities is reddit oriented. If the goal is leaving/hurting reddit, it seems we should be continuing on like it doesn’t exist, instead of continuing to drive interest to the site. Thoughts?
Now that we’re no longer linked to lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works we can’t subscribe to their communities any more....
I nuked my Reddit accounts today. Deleted all comments and posts, then the accounts themselves. The tool I used showed each comment as it was deleted, and it was bittersweet....
Here I was in my own little bubble appearently, thinking people were using kagi.com to search now that it exists, but a comment I got made me realize that’s probably not the case…...
Covid, WFH, Musk, The fall of Twitter, Netflix plateau, Reddit Blackout, Crippling interest rates, Trump, Decentralisation, Tech Antitrust, Ukraine...
I’ve been on reddit for a long, long time and i’ve seen all the changes that have happened in the past decade. I spent a lot of time on Reddit, and have seen the slow infestation of bots, karma whores, and guerilla marketing disguised as posts....
When I first found out it was an interesting concept that I was pretty neutral on but the more I engage/lurk with the community the more I enjoy it....
hello! this is just a thing i’d like to personally note. it speaks for myself, and where it does not expresses sentiments we’ve already placed somewhere else. this is not a moderator document or anything, and it will not be stickied....
I really like how products like chatgpt can make life easier and more efficient, especially for programmers. However im also kind of afraid of these projects centralised nature. Do you think there is a way to avoid the risks of smaller companies and individuals being reliant on a couple of huge companies for writing code, etc....
Out of curiosity before midnight, I’ve been lurking in incognito to see what subreddits appear and I saw WhitePeopleTwitter has a long post and is choosing to stay open....
let’s spread the love so other instances/communities can be discovered easier...
First, I am here because I did not go through with my plans to end my own life so many years ago at the age of 13....
Beehaw 🐝🤠 folks,...
Something just struck me today when scrolling Lemmy, something that sticks out thanks to the federated aspects....
(Reminder: if you have shared the original version in a public post with an old version up, replacing it with this one might be more helpful.)...
Hello everyone! I’m learning German and I’m trying to make sure my language learning habits are the best they can be. I was using Duolingo and Busuu, but that was taking a lot of time away from immersion/fun and what I learned in one app I often learned in the other, so it felt redundant. So now I just use Busuu for grammar...
Just a working list - feel free to add to it. I realize that some of these might already exist, and I just missed them. Here’s what I’ve got so far:...
if you haven't introduced yourself already, please feel free to do so
I’ve had three glasses of wine after a long day at work, and I’ve began thinking about the slow shift towards federalization/decentralization....
any beehawers (I coined it) fans of psychedelic substances like shrooms or lsd? We need a community for experiences and stuff it would be cool
