I think it’s just because this guy left a comment, the algorithm picked up the post again.

Kinda like ‘bumping’ a thread in the forum days.

This post is 2 years old lol

If they didn’t get paid by Reddit they likely sold it on the dark web.

Because they aren’t really volunteers. They love the power they wield and would do anything to keep it.

The real volunteers already quit.

Yes that’s true. That’s why I can confidently say any browser because they are all the same.

I upvoted. Many apollo users don't know abut wefwef yet.

You should have picked a more descriptive title though.

Damn, 20k subs already!?!

I could have sworn it was 7k like 3 days ago.

Reddit doesn’t respect that on iPhones through any browser.

So anti consumer it hurts.

This is the true final blow to third party apps.

I noticed they did something similar to the mobile website. Even with appropriate content blockers there’s absolutely no way you can see sexually explicit content on mobile without their app.

Uh no, you can’t. It’s like any game with DRM.

You can’t play most games on steam without logging in at least once.

Just use TLLauncher.

OP hates Linux

Sorry OP, people who like Linux tend to have the same values this platform advertises.

It really boils down to availability. A VPS will usually be more reliable than a home network.

For 99% of personal use though a home network behind a dynamic DNS service will be more than good enough.

In a lot of subs it was like that though, to be fair.

Some mods go around collecting subs like cards. I’ve seen certain subs where the mods didn’t really bother protesting, or even did protests that actually drove traffic and platform engagement (r/awww and r/videos) because the thought of being removed from their positions of power was too much to handle.

These kind of mods felt like they ‘owned’ the subreddit in the same way spez thought he ‘owned’ everything. It was not free labour for them, they loved doing it and controlling content streams.

Sorry if this post offends any of the good mods. If you are more likely to say ‘the sub I moderate’ over ‘my sub’ then you are probably one of the good ones and the whole ‘landed gentry’ thing is incredibly offensive.

I feel like the EEE attack is inevitable at this point.

Why else would they even be willing to federate?

They saw the threat that decentralized non-profit social media is and want to kill it before it has a chance.

All Lemmy servers and especially the largest ones need to defederate from it immediately.

Just give it time, someone will make a native wefwef clone. It’s open source after all.

Hell, if there’s no native app in a year, I’ll contribute to making one happen.

I would like you to point out some example features that can’t be done on here though that exist in memmy? The hiccups on here are not due to it being a web app.

And somehow some people are going to use this as reasoning that they need more guns to defend themselves.

I had a feeling there was something going when when Steve Huffman specifically called out in his interview that most comments sections were full of users ‘just wanting to go back to normal’ when the sub polls were clearly showing a different story.

It’s crazy how some of the communications from their CEO has been.

He clearly thinks he owns all the content on the platform and even called the third party app users ‘freeloaders’ when a ton of them were top contributors to the platform.

Bigger than you think.

Most people who moved over are more likely to be contributors.

Only like 1% of redditors ever interact with the platform.

Instead of looking at ‘how much they lost’ think about ‘how much we gained’. This effect has started the network effect for Lemmy.

Halo was a legit competitor to cod just past a decade ago.

Now you can’t even compare them because COD is bigger than ever while halo is a shadow of its former self.

Infinite really could have been a partial comeback for halo if they had a steady stream of content after launch, but somehow they added even less than most non-live service games.
