Just got back a message from the mods who told me to grow up and called me a 'hero'. They also muted me for 28 days so I can't message them any more. My reply to their ban was this "Banned for deleting my own comment in a 10 year old thread? Funny."
I thought I replied already to this so this might be a double.. I think they are just a bootlicker who needs to go outside more often. Based on the reply I got from them I don't think they give a shit about their users just their power.
That is what I was thinking earlier today when I edited 13 years worth of comments and deleted all of my posts. I figure they will make it impossible unless you are protected by GDPR or something similar.
That's fine with me I was deleting it on the 30th anyhow. Plus this should highlight the pathetic atmosphere over there for anyone who is on the fence about leaving.

Well that sucks. I forget about ads on YT since I watch mostly on pc with Ublock on occasion I will watch something on the TV from YT and instantly am reminded how annoying the YT ads are.
I had a 1024 day reading streak going and somehow missed a day just this past Monday. What a bummer. We had some plumbing issues at the house and it threw my whole day off.
I wondered the same thing. Or someway to tie it into a current Mastadon account so i could see what that account is following. I feel like what I'm asking for is kind of a big ask right now since Ernest and the new dev team probably have way to much going on just keeping the site going.

Just deleted 13 years worth of comments and posts. Not gonna lie it was slightly painful but it had to be done. I used Redact to overwrite and delete them with a message.
I just used redact.dev to overwrite and delete 13 years worth of comments. I also manually deleted all of my posts. Kinda hurt me to do it but I think it's the right thing to do.
I self medicate with caffeine and have known it for years. Though changing my diet has worked better for controlling my ADHD than anything except pharmaceuticals. I'm in my late 40's and have been diagnosed ADD / ADHD since the 1980's. A low carb diet works decently for me. It's not 100% like being on Adderall or Ritalin but I am more focused and able to stop spinning my wheels most days. I also am a nicotine user so that adds to the mix.
I'm using Redact and having it run repeatedly to overwrite my comments with a message that says why I removed the comments. I have 13 years of comments being edited and I manually deleted my posts. Hopefully they will stay gone.
Is there a way to see what magazines/communities we're subscribed to? I know there's /sub, but that just shows the posts, rather than the communities themselves.
Go to your profile then on the line with sort by on it there are a left and right arrow. Click the right arrow until you see subscriptions. I've only tested this on pc not sure if it is the same on mobile.
Love the way you worked this against HR. I had a situation kind of like yours once where we got a per diem daily for a hotel and one meal. The company let us keep the leftover money from the per diem until they hired a new manager that insisted we turn in the extra (it wasn't much maybe $5-25). Fine, we all started getting more expensive hotel rooms and spending the rest on food using every cent they gave us. . After about 2 years the guy who made us turn in the leftover money left and we went back to being able to keep the extra money.

I haven't been on reddit since Sunday and today I took a peek at the front page and was instantly angry and defensive. I am glad to have a do over here. I too doom scrolled all day looking for things that confirm my bias and make me agitated. It will take some time for me to get past that mentality.
In the past, when searching on a search engine, I would use "site:reddit.com" to narrow down my results.

My ex from Norway mentioned how unusual it was that so many places and people here fly our flag (USA), so I was curious to hear what it's like for others here on the fediverse.
Banned from r/news for deleting a 10 year old comment with redact. Guess the mods there have no backbone. No big deal to me since I'm deleting my account soon but be aware.
