Oh, this is lovely. Thank you.

I feel your sentiment. But it’s more about our impression that everything on the internet should be free.
There are people that hate subscriptions, paywalls, adds or that their personal data being sold. And yet they want to use all the services such as Netflix, YouTube, Facebook, etc. People want to have their cake and eat it too.
I am not saying that the number of adds and prices are not getting out of control but it makes sense to me that if I am not paying directly for certain services, I am paying for them with my personal data or an advertiser is paying for me instead.
Technically you pay to use Youtube by watching adds. People sometimes forget that there are no free lunches.
Well, new Reddit might easily mean better but also diffderent Reddit. Also, I am not sure whether people actually call it a new Reddit. Most of the time I heard the destription was a Reddit alternative which by definition doesn’t imply that it’s identical or even better in all ways.
It would take way more but the first step it would be to remove religions. And not only because most are not peaceful in principle but also because some religions see others as a target. Even small difference in beliefs could spark a vicious and long standing conflic, like Catholics Vs protestants.
This is the way
Alright Mr Outraged, just because you got here a week before others doesn’t mean the the new comers cannot ask about Lemmy and his it compares to Reddit. In fact the numbers are expected to rise. So good luck blocking posts and people on daily basis for weeks and months to come.
Aka, don’t be a jerk to new comers that have questions. Jeez.
I don’t know the answer.
One thing that bugs me, and I found the same with Thunder, is that I cannot sort posts by Top (Day, Week, etc.). Any reason why that is?
I know we are encouraged to create content on Lemmy… But based on the quality of your post and the effort I think we will be better off if you continue only lurking.
I agree with all the things you said. Including changing this weird name.
I know right? Leave Christian Bale and Christian Slater alone!
Well, as long as I am around it is not going to die as a I am not leaving Fediverse. And I am specific about it being the fediverse as even if Kbin and/or Lemmy die, there will be others that will take over, I am 100% sure. Whether it will actually surpass Reddit, I have no clue. But I am not sure whether I even care.
And not because I hate Reddit or anything like that. I am just really into what fediverse stands for and even a week ago with half of the users it scratched my itch as Reddit had done previously.
Like honestly, I don’t even feel that strongly about Reddit and spez but Lemmy provide all I need so far, from meta stuff, through inteligent conversations to memes.
I don’t know, they are pretty fucking cheap.
Thank you for such s measured response. Many developers would want to see any manager burn in hell as they tend to feel like they always know better. And while on a technical level that might be and if is true, on other levels a good manager can have a massive impact.
That is not overtime, it is during normal working hours.
This post is Meta.
On a serious note, can we appreciate Meta’s marketing team for the timing of this announcement. They waited for Twitter to bleed to kick it in the shins.
