Reddit CEO: We're Sticking With API Changes, Despite Subreddits Going Dark
I'm missing reddit less and less with reach passing minute. At this point I don't know if I'll be going back after the blackout. This is already WAY more fun to use than the reddit app or mobile site, and I have no idea what I'm doing yet.
Kudos to the developers here for putting in the work.

Pettiness as its peak. Trimmed trees at universal studios picket lines.

The city should fine the fuck out of NBCUniversal for the full cost of replacing those trees. Those are not healthy trees.

Trek Central reporting that Star Trek Prodigy has been cancelled and will be removed from Paramount+ in coming days.
Canceling it is one thing. Pulling the show down from the service is absolutely abhorrent behavior.

Do people generally pay much attention to usernames anyway? One of the things that attracted me to old-school forums, then reddit, and now the feddiverse is the decentralized anonymity. It's all just voices, and they're all treated as equal, though you can still look at their histories or profiles and get more context if you want. I like that it's not front-facing. The ideas come first, and personality is secondary.

I'm still missing a lot of the niche communities that haven't cropped up here yet, but this instance and the USS Hood discord have been a diverting replacement.

Unsubscribing to dank memes would be a good start.

‘Hell on earth’: Phoenix’s extreme heatwave tests the limits of survival
Reply in thread
You know why they think that. They believe, truly, that God made the world for man to exploit and use up, and anyone who says otherwise is spouting the Devil's lies.
Some will claim to believe that it doesn't matter one way or the other, that this is the only life we have, and that there's no point in sacrificing our own joy for the future of others. This apathetic stance is held by many, but it is wielded as a shield and reinforced by those who believe that Earth is just a toy for us to have fun with and break, but won't say it openly.
Whether anyone wants to admit it or not, this conflict is a religious one, and anyone who denies that is only enabling the wingnuts destroying this planet.

ysk - your account doesn't exist on other instances and communities don't overlap
When I see multiple communities on the same subject, I just subscribe to all of them. Either they'll eventually differentiate into their own unique spaces, or one of them will become the dominant one and the others will become fringe alternates. It's a good thing.

Who are the real lemmings? Us or the redditors that stuck around

I figure you're just joking and are well aware that this was a myth invented for a Disney nature "documentary", but I feel a duty to defend the noble lemmings against this scurrilous stereotype. They're not suicidal or mindless followers. They do, however, smell terrible.

What's the best fucked up movie you've ever seen?
This may be a basic film-bro™ answer, but Oldboy is a good baseline for "kinda fucked up" but also "really really good". It's even better on the second viewing. I even recommend watching Spike Lee's misguided remake, because it makes you seriously appreciate the artistry behind what Park Chan-Wook was doing.

I feel sorry for anyone born there or brought there as a child. They didn't choose this.
People who moved there voluntarily are another matter. I don't have much pity for them.

Why are people anti Facebook joining the fediverse?
I just wanted to chime in here and add this lame-assed meme template to things we should retire in the fediverse.
Aaron Crowder is a bigoted chode, and using him for your meme template only undercuts whatever point you want to make.
Find a new meme for this purpose. Let's do better.

Or from the reverse, Lemmy Answer You. Are we okay with the inevitable shortened version being LAY? Perhaps we should keep the "anything" on the end so it becomes LAYA. Much better SEO.

Man, this comment is naive as hell. I'm disappointed to see so much anti-labor sentiment here. But what else should I expect from that username.
