Thanks for your contributions to the community :)

UPDATE The bot has been unbanned and is posting again! Cheers everyone!

Thank you! The bot will be the main poster of this sub, as manual entries will be rather difficult with timing of deals. There shouldn't be many human posts. Thank you for the swift-reversal! :)

So I've been a little absent the past few months (haven't even logged in), and I'll be honest, I never even saw that we had gotten a bot. It's great that we had one, but this community is pretty small to begin with. Hopefully the community is able to get the bot back in the sub

Welcome :) I'll try to keep it community based, but if we keep growing I'll try to get more moderators and maybe bots to get some deals automagically

You could always make a community here around it :)

Honestly, I'm okay with that, in fact encourage it. I need to figure out how to do that myself.

True, I just literally copied and pasted it from r/bapcsalescanada

Meanwhile, Canada's housing supply is running thin!

My adblocker keeps tabs of how many trackers it blocked and Reddit was always the highest culprit of trackers. This doesn't surprise me, but I do not have/use facebook,snapchat,tiktok or instagram to compare it to.

Set a realistic threat level that meets your balance of privacy/convienience and stick to it. I know it is easier said than done, but once you start to get used to it, then you can think about making slight adjustments to better your privacy here and there. If you try to go full privacy right off the bat, you are going to get frustrated.

Start with changing 1-2 things at a time and go from there. Perhaps just change your browser/settings and your email. Adjust from there after a few months

Thanks for making this Canadian instance :) I first created my account on Lemmy.ml, but also made one here since I am Canadian. Looking forward to seeing Lemmy grow as a whole, and see more Canadians join the Fediverise :)

For anyone interested, I've made a community for posting PC hardware/accessory sales (r/bapcsalescanada). Feel free to join and contribute. And if you know how to create an RSS feed, also let me know!
