I spent way too much time on Reddit and am now looking to spend way too much time on Kbin and the wider fediverse!

I like to paint....

I honestly think reddit will be perfectly fine. Unfortunately...

There's a type of pervasive apathy that's skyrocketed over the last 6-8 years throughout the internet and society. There's just too much to care about. The fact is it's easier to complain about your CEO or Admins than it is to find or build an alternate source just re-enforces the apathetic response to injustices.

It doesn't effect me, I don't agree but I'm not buying a sub, I'm only active on small communities, etc. It's easier to find excuses than to try to move away from a behemoth of content.

I think 95%+ of users will probably fall into this group. I know I did for years!

I personally will check reddit for what's going on in the world once or twice a week and use it for information but my decade+ of activity was over the day spez lied about Apollo.

I'll probably look back into using RSS too. Reddit really has gotten toxic and it's just going to continue getting worse. I'm out for my own mental health and I hope others are too.

What free apps and games are good to put on an android phone?

So ive had a phone for a bit now but i struggle at finding game sand apps to put on it especially free ones. its kinda mid range dphone it cant run genshin impact at all but it runs stuff like battle cats really well i also struggle at finding good or useful apps to download so if you know any please suggest some or something.

This game cost me almost as much time as reddit. Now that I have more time in my life maybe it's time for a few more runs... I can't recommend it enough. It does start out slow though.

Curious, if you were/are a Reddit user, will you be leaving the platform for good or have you already? CEO has called unpaid moderators' concerns "noise", that will be "passing soon."

There's a lot of noise with this one. Among the noisiest we've seen. Please know that our teams are on it, and like all blowups on Reddit, this one will pass as well. The most important things we can do right now are stay focused, adapt to challenges, and keep moving forward. We absolutely must ship what we said we would....

I'm in the same boat. My account is coming up on 12 in a month or two. I might pop in to communities here and there for info but my days off activity are 100% gone.

I already purged all my history. Even if they rolled everything back what's the point? I'd rather just hang out here with smaller groups of nicer people.

I deleted my 12 year old account history after the "AMA" with Spez and will be fully deleting my account on the 30th. That being said I clicked back on reddit today and browsed a bit of what was up and after spending the last few days on kbin and beehaw I don't think I can go back.

The amount of toxicity that I was putting up with on reddit was astounding. I can't believe I didn't notice it was so bad, even on the smaller subs I was active in. I always have referred to reddit as a cesspit with islands of good content, but I think the landscape changed while I wasn't paying attention.

I do hope the protest works and 3rd party devs can continue their wonderful apps, but reddit is kind of over for me regardless. The fediverse somehow feels like the early internet, kinda like going home.

Been using this on my iPad pro for several months. I love the flexibility for extensions. It's not perfect but I enjoy the trade offs even if it does randomly slowdown sometimes.

Detroit-area city bans LGBTQ+ pride flags on public property (apnews.com)

A Detroit-area community has banned LGBTQ+ flags from publicly owned flagpoles. The unanimous vote by the Hamtramck City Council came during a tense meeting that raised questions about discrimination, religion and the city’s reputation for welcoming newcomers. The council voted to display only certain flags, including the...

Man I hate that our existence is becoming increasingly political. It's so incredibly messed up that a bunch of people see no issue dehumanizing others in our society.

I completely forgot about the new season with diablo 4 swallowing my time. Thanks for the reminder!
ROCK AND STONE!

I love this idea. Simple, elegant and not prone to accidental inputs.

Both of these suggestions rock! Definitely some of the best games in the genre period.

I'm currently replaying SoTN for the 6th time right now. I can't recommended it enough.

I will saying playing it on a handheld like the Rg35xx or the RP3+ is made drastically better by applying the Qhack mod. It fixes the resolution scaling for 4:3 during the main gameplay giving you substantially more screen size.

It unfortunately does open a passage earlier than intended, but I can't go back to the original on my pocket. It's easy enough to ignore until you'd normally open it.
