Very disappointed to see my employer on here with a D rating. Internal comms said we were out!

The difference now is that Gab exists and those people have been going over there for a few years now. As long as the fediverse doesn’t become an echo chamber like Reddit I’ll stay happy.

Super interested in this topic. My three kids are growing up way more shielded from the world than I did. I can’t tell if that will be a good thing for them or a bad thing. My wife grew up very protected. I feel like I understood reality by teen years while she is often surprised (in our 30’s) to learn just how bad and hopefulness things often are. I share realistic perspectives on things with my girls but usually with a spin towards “the future generations will figure out a solution”.

Probably my favorite and most played Mario game of all time. Now I see why they never released it on Virtual Console… this is even better. Can’t wait to play it with my daughters who love the Mario franchise!

Several of the big subs have switched to a malicious compliance though where they’ve reopened but are nothing like their normal content. It’s not actually against the rules, and seems kind of clever unless I’m missing something?

"i can't wait for grassroots decentralization of the internet, including video" 🍻

The fact that users can easily move to another instance will serve as something of a check and balance against this kind of behavior by mods and admins though, wouldn’t it?

Spent a decade on Reddit (using Alien Blue, then Apollo exclusively) but now spending 90% of that time on kbin/fediverse leaning heavily on kbin progressive web app on iPad/iPhone. Doing most what I need it to like Apollo did, and even though it’s an early prototype it’s already way better than the official Reddit iOS app!

“I think the fun part of reddit is over.” Upvoted until I saw this, and had to comment to say you are absolutely right. Reddit will live on for now but the fun times feel over.
