So I need to run any comments I make to reddit by chatgpt before posting, it seems. I heard ai training ai leads to a poisoned data set.

It's been that way for awhile.

If you have Amazon prime, you can sub to one creator a month "for free."

It depends on the industry. About 10 years ago there was a government shutdown that looked to have no end in sight. If my memory is correct, air traffic controllers were told they had to work with no pay until the government shutdown ended. They got fed up, walked off their jobs, and almost immediately, the government shutdown was over.

The dude is just gifts all the way down.

I'm glad this is the case, but still, exclusivity is bullshit.

Sounds good! This'll come with a reduction in the cost of prime, right?

I saw this coming. If you aim at the king, you best not miss.

I don't know what made Prigozhin stop his advance, but he must have accepted that he was a dead man the moment he did.

He's just a supremely powerful being (nameless thing, perhaps) who was created at the same time as Arda and who is just content living in a forest singing all day about how hot his wife is instead of caring about anything that happens in the world around him.

The question is, what is his wife, Goldberry? She appears to be a personification of nature, Arda, or just the Old Forest or something.

Having tried /r/politics, /r/eve, and /r/valheim, I was going to point out how I didn't get the screen you got. However, /r/nyt gets this message. As an aside, /r/politics, /r/eve, and /r/valheim are verified while /r/nyt is not is interesting to me. Upon further testing, /r/nytimes works. Seeing how /r/nyt has 411 subscribers, while /r/nytimes has 8,431 subscribers, I think smaller, less well known subreddits will run into issues while larger subreddits or subreddits that are more well known will have no accessibility issues.

It's also interesting that this block doesn't exist if you navigate to old.reddit.com/r/nyt instead of just reddit.com/r/nyt. You think they would have just repurposed the page that asked if you if you were over 18 before going to a nsfw subreddit for this task, but old.reddit.com seems completely overlooked as of now.

old.reddit.com on the Firefox Android app looks bad, but I wonder if someone could make an extension to automatically redirect users to old.reddit.com when navigating to reddit.com, as well as an extension that changes the layout of the page to something more mobile friendly, similar to RES but for your phone's browser. That might make reddit usable on mobile without the official app until old.reddit.com goes away or they try to implement some sort of user agent string check.

Lemmy isn't THE reddit alternative for me. In fact, I don't think there can be a single reddit alternative that can fill reddit's shoes. This whole debacle was a reminder to diversify and try out different platforms.

Coming to reddit from digg, I found that I still visited slashdot after the move. Reddit's had previous issues that has prompted people to try to migrate to other sites over the years. I joined Tildes a few years back, and before that, I was on Voat until it became clear that it was a cesspool. I also lurk occasionally on Raddle.

This migration attempt, I picked up Lemmy, and I might try a couple of other sites like Squabble. I gave up using reddit on my phone, but I still use old.reddit.com when I'm on a computer. And I still lurk on slashdot after all these years.

Having used the web before any of these sites existed, I've found that what's past is prologue. There is no one size fits all, but rather a plethora of sites that host various communities.

I thought I had a good bead on it.

Am I missing something?

I recently switched from lemmy.ml to here. It just seems to be snappy and always up when I use the site. Lemmy.ml, on the other hand, is down frequently due to the high traffic and otherwise slow to load for me.

This instance does what it says on the tin. Shit just works over here.
