Simple. A lot of people practice their self-indulged superiority on there. I mean, where else can you freely kiss moderator ass to get the desired results you want while alternatingly, make so many alts to shit on everything everyone tries to enjoy on there?
It’s a huge power-trip. And Spez is the fucking ringleader.
HOW DARE YOU SUGGEST I GOOGLE SEARCH?! I KNOW EVERYTHING IN EXISTENCE AND I’LL DEMONSTRATE THAT BY BLOCK SWIPING YOU WITH A SNARKY RETORT AFTER I’VE DUG THROUGH YOUR POST HISTORY TO SAY SOMETHING ENTIRELY IRRELEVANT TO THE TOPIC!
It’ll take Lemmy a long time to even get to a quarter of the user base Reddit has. I estimate probably 10 ~ 20 years. So that’s a good couple decades to enjoy things here while we can. By then, we’d be too old to give a fuck anymore.
That’s exactly the gesture I gathered when all of the subreddits opened back up. “Please! Please! Don’t take away what little control we have over everyone because we live insufferable lives because we barely control a single thing in it! We’ll comply!”
We don’t need them. If they’ve spent years, shitting on the communities they’ve hogged all this time, what does one think they’ll do when they come here?
The worst that they can do is run their own instance, but it’ll be away from the rest of us.
From all of the times I had spent in your subreddit, the admins were always rubbing their hands together to find any and all excuses to nuke your subreddit. Every other moderator announcement it was always about trying to meet admin demand after admin demand but it was never enough. It’ll never be enough.
The day Spez decided to turn his shitty circus into an IPO, was the last warning bell.
Did anything that happened from last year tell anyone anything over there? No because a large amount of Reddit users are lost causes, they can’t cope getting outside their comfort zone. They’re like Facebook users, too drugged up on their insatiable need to be righteous, to be validated, to feel like they’re heard and to play up to an audience who more than likely would not like them if they met them in person.
Soon we’re going to find Spez saying the exact same thing Mark said - “Dumb fucks”.
The Federal Communications Commission voted 3–2 to impose net neutrality rules today, restoring the common-carrier regulatory framework enforced during the Obama era and then abandoned while Trump was president....
This is perhaps some of the best news I’ve read and heard about for a while.
It was scary close, though. It could’ve gone either way.
Go ahead, prepare your fucking lawsuit, lobbyists. We collectively should be suing you, for all of the times you lied your ass off about spreading broadband to areas you PROMISED you’d bring service to!
I don’t know if others are experiencing a similar situation. My all feed is very sparse with engagement. If I sort top six hours or by top 12 most posts have between 5-10 comments. I feel like there was more in the past? Is engagement dropping off? I’m on lemmy.world as my instance.
Here I was brought up believing that comics can have any style they want as long as they are funny, thought-provoking and at times challenging to think about.
Who decided you were the one in charge of curating art?
Buzz killers for sure, too. Like, people should be going on dates to try something new and as a way to try and overcome their problems. They’re attempts, at least.
If all that you’re going to do is dump trauma onto someone in a scenario like this. They didn’t fail, you did.
When Spotify announced its largest-ever round of layoffs in December, CEO Daniel Ek hailed a new age of efficiency at the streaming giant. But four months on, it seems he and his executives weren’t prepared for how tough filling in for 1,500 axed workers would be....
The CEO is just a position that tells everyone that you’ve lied to people, deceived your close ones, pulled off underhanded tactics and more to get to where you are. Now you’re the top of the level shithead who makes money doing fuck all except write or say things for PR clout.
Nothing about virtue signaling, you rogan dick sucking fanboy.
How would you feel if you worked for Spotify and your job got axed because some dude your company decided to pay loads to, got more money and suddenly there had to be cutbacks? I bet you’d love that. I bet you’d love the idea of being homeless, no food on the table because you feel that guy “earned it” when you know they probably didn’t in any way. That’s how much of a cuck that you are.
I haven’t listened to a minute or second of Joe Rogan in my life. What I see on the table here and what I’ve read in this article, tells me it’s wrong just by default. Must be nice living such a delusional life like yours over there. I bet you’re the kind of person that voted Trump “CUZ DUH POPULAR VOTE SAID MORE THAN ELECTORAL HUHUHUHU!”
Guys, stop focusing on the headline. Read the line underneath it. It’s not being banned as in, pushed out of use. It’s being severed from it’s china-based parent company.

I’m not even on Windows 11, lol. Dodging so many bullets from that shithole OS.
The only things preventing me from going full on Linux is driver support/compatibility, full gaming (we’re talking, things from GOG more than Steam) and using the same utilities that run better on Windows.
May be an incident where they could not understand how much things they take for granted cost to the normies, a flagrant disregard for morals or ethics, a blatant show of arrogance or disconnectedness, or anything yould like to share.
It always happens when I confront things that I need to do, that I need to absolutely do if it means gaining some sort of progress or order in my life.
Like removing a friend, maybe deleting a bunch of games I never were interested in playing in the first place but bought them anyways under the false guise of “just incase”.
Anytime I finally do one of those things, I feel bad and I hate myself for feeling bad for doing what’s overdue to have been done.
He’s never going to prison. That’s all power-fantasy at this point. How many times in the past 8 years have we’ve heard this shit in and out? “Oh he’s so going to prison for this one thing he did!” “Oh he’s definitely going to prison for THAT…”
