flipthetube,

Wildly disagree.

You’ll have to pry my deep minimal organic afrotech from my cold dead hands.

flipthetube,

It’s perfect.

flipthetube,

Guns!

Of Navarone.

flipthetube,

This opinion is popular with me.

flipthetube,

Damn Lemmy to hell for getting me into memes again.

I loved them decades ago, but then moved on. Then I lost all my communities of interest and spend all of my time here. With memes only.

It’s getting better very slowly but thanks for keeping me mildly entertained in the meantime.

flipthetube,

This roadshow belongs to antique.

flipthetube,

I’ve either done too much or not enough. Let me think about it more.

flipthetube,

Thanks Newsom!

flipthetube,

I mean it’s easier to find than a pack of menthol cigarettes where I am but I’m still looking forward to mainstream acceptance of the benefits of psychedelics.

Keep doing your thing up there!

flipthetube,

That’s great that it doesn’t happen for you. For me, any time I end up on Reddit in a browser on iPhone, it gives the obnoxious “open in app or continue in browser” popup.

I use private mode in safari though, maybe it’s not saving a cookie or something.

flipthetube,

I know that. I’m talking about the shitty popup.

flipthetube,

Somehow had never heard about Army Stew until recently. Ordered it and was blown away. So processed. So delicious.

flipthetube,

I’m blessed to have a decent amount of Korean restaurants to choose from, but a make at home option sounds great. Hadn’t considered that, thanks.

Can’t really think of anything other than the kimchi and tofu that’s not canned anyway, should be pretty easy to make.

And agree, very interesting story.

flipthetube,

Why is it not Ziggy Chips? Sounds way better.

Might even tell people to call me that from now on…

flipthetube,

Finally!

flipthetube,

Don’t tell me how to live my life

flipthetube,

I have no faith that bird will arrive with anything more than parsley on bread.

flipthetube,

How then do you explain the ground noodles?

Dedication does not always equal results.

flipthetube,

I stand corrected and apologize for the misunderstanding. Thank you both for your service.

flipthetube,

I’ve never heard the term sealioning. Is it really a thing?

I don’t think it is, but if you have any evidence to prove it, I’m listening.

flipthetube,

Looks great, where are you?

flipthetube,

Their lighting app is a steaming pile of shit as well.

flipthetube,

He gets us.

flipthetube,

20 years ago was 2003. The internet was fucking awesome in 2003.

flipthetube,

I agree that it’s different now.

flipthetube,

I’m not saying we need to blow up and get inundated with the masses, but sometimes it takes an event to kick things up a notch or two. Ideally a positive event, but something noteworthy to get people’s attention.

I don’t visit that site which shall not be named anymore, but I never visited it for memes or politics etc or because I had any particular affinity for the platform. I went there for the niche forums it had and if they exist here, they are empty.

I’m optimistic and I think we’ll have that event.

flipthetube,

Word.

The average person doesn’t seek shit out. They wait until it’s fed to them and then may occasionally decide to participate out of fomo.

What really surprised me is that some of the communities I enjoyed pretty much universally carried on as if nothing happened. Maybe I’m weird, but I can’t support the bullshit they pulled. Thankful for the alternative and hope to see it flourish.

flipthetube,

He is. He’s your average internet troll that made a few lucky decisions in the past.

And don’t call me Shirley.

flipthetube,

His best decision to date, yes.

flipthetube,

That’s the size my supposedly powerful computer thinks every PDF is with Acrobat Pro.

flipthetube,

ITT: A bunch of grumpy people who base their opinions on media coverage of the event.

Media reports and reality don’t always align, believe it or not.

flipthetube,

I am actually, yes.

flipthetube,

It’s times like these when I most wish I didn’t have this bee allergy.

flipthetube,

I like the idea, but I’ve always just done guacamole and milk. Call me traditional.

flipthetube,

Zoop zoop.

flipthetube,

I do the same because there isn’t a single community that I care about that isn’t silent if it even exists. Pretty damn boring.

flipthetube,

Face.

flipthetube,

Face. I like it.

flipthetube,

Oil/grease + tomato. Dawn.

flipthetube,

Not sure how well this would work for Hawaiian cities, but San Francisco utilizes a network of cisterns in intersections that are ready to go if needed.

kqed.org/…/what-are-the-mysterious-brick-circles-…

Old tech, but I’ve always found it a pretty brilliant idea.

flipthetube,

Almost every single time.

I have a couple of important exceptions but I dare not mention them by name lest they be bought and ruined tomorrow.

flipthetube,

Anchor happened because Sapporo bought them.

flipthetube,

What has two holes and smells?

flipthetube, (edited )

Good writeup, but a few things I’m taking away from it.

  1. I’ll say it again, fuck RedditCorp.
  2. A recurring theme I’m seeing in these articles is the framing of it as a RedditCorp vs mods issue. I was just a user. Yes, the mods got screwed hard here, but so did any casual user who relied on well-designed apps to allow them to access and participate in the discussions they cared about without being clotheslined by an ad every 5 seconds. This is as insulting to the users as it is anyone else.
  3. It’s been mentioned by a few others but why did they choose Discord? This article points out the flaws with it, all of which would be resolved by migrating to Lemmy/Fediverse. I’m not a user of Discord or Reddit, so I’m not tuned in to their reasoning.
  4. Related, another article that gives no mention to the incredible growth that’s happening over here. Maybe that’s for the best, but a little exposure couldn’t hurt. I know all of my niche equivalents over here are silent.
  5. Shoutout to Guy in the article, most of the things he said are 100% spot on for members of any passionate community. I hope more people who continue to use that one outdated site read this article and finally ask themselves, “Why the fuck am I still sticking around this place?”
flipthetube,

I did not know that, interesting.

flipthetube,

Likewise. Pretty sure it’s heading exactly where we think it’s heading.

flipthetube,

Progress is forward, not backward.

flipthetube,

I’m in the same boat, but rather than just going back to Reddit for those communities, I’ve opted to lose those communities, conversations and information entirely. I will not support their platform.

And I resent Reddit for that in a major way. Fuck them.
