Surely you mean Sherman?

Custer was the bigot a**hole who decided to pick a fight he couldn’t win with native Americans at Little Big Horn.

Sherman was the general who set fire to the south and razed the land from Georgia to the sea.

Okay got it, bug not feature. Phew. Sounds good then.

I just checked it out because of this post, and I'm not really sold. It just seems... off? to me. Like the whole comments right next to the post thing and what not just made it more of a distraction than anything. I mean, it could be my adhd preventing me from focusing, but I just could feel myself becoming overwhelmed within the 5-10 minutes I was looking through it. I feel that lemmy/kbin is definitely more Reddit-like, and personally, less overwhelming. Good concept, maybe not-so-good execution for some people.

For me it was a quarterly town hall with hospital leadership and they kept pushing “we are a business…” and all I could think was “no, we are a hospital…” because being a business is indicative of being profit motivated. I know, I know, that’s exactly what it is, but it just really bothered me to hear that line over and over.

Yeah, I was working contract, contract ended abruptly and now I’ve been out of a job since September. Despite the amount of layoffs happening in tech, it seems a lot of other industries are holding on to people.

I think I read the stat that in 2022 LinkedIn had 1 job posted for 1 person searching, in 2023 they had 1 job posted for every 2 people searching according to their research team. Companies can be more selective with an over abundance of applicants, miss qualified ones with floods of resumes, or just straight fly “just in case” postings.

This has been the roughest few months of my life, and I’ve done a combat tour in Iraq.

That is quite the prediction. I just don't see how any of that is possible. /s

On top of that, I predict Tsunoda in P11, either by finishing there or getting a random penalty that knocks him into it lol

June would be 9 years for me. I remember I joined because I had just gotten into Formula 1 and found a great place to read about it among a community that I, as someone with social anxiety, remain anonymous, but also, as someone with ADHD, geek out and hyperfocus on all the ins-and-outs and fit in.

It has been 9 long years. My subscribed list tells the story of those years. Once I subscribed to something I never unsubscribed, even if I never went back so I would have those memories of "Oh, I remember when that happen and I was super into ____." It saw me get divorced, it saw me leave the military and travel across the country to fight wildfires. It saw me meet the person that I should have married to begin with and share Reddit with them. It has been the one constant over the last decade, that while I can move on and leave because I love it here, I just don't think I can delete my account. It would be like deleting those memories and I just struggle with that.

Yea, similar to Tumblr, they fell hard and now people use it dramatically less than before their NSFW decision to the point that now that they’ve allowed that content again no one really cares. Tumblr will always be seen as “the website that died after banning NSFW content.”

It’s quite possible Reddit will be seen as “the website that died because they backstabbed third party developers.”

I think it is because they put it behind cloudflare for ddos protection. I think they are going to change that at some point once the migration calms down. I think.

This is what I was getting at. Any other point in time, people would have just sat on the sidelines until subs opened again, but now that alternatives exist, people have somewhere to go.

I personally think that regardless of Reddit going back on API pricing and what not, they burned too many bridges with outside devs that third party apps would be going away period. They didn’t just cross the line, the treated it like the Olympic long jump. Reddit did some real damage to a lot of communities, not just hobby’s but users with disabilities, neurodivergent users, and many more that relied on apps to help them use Reddit.

If it wasn’t for the fediverse, I’m not gonna lie, I’d probably go back. But now that I’m here, no way.

I’ll have to give this a try! Does it work on any instance or just the one that you use?

I think part of the issue is that even if they did reverse course on the API price, they so thoroughly drug Christian (u/iamthatis, Apollo Dev) through the mud that I doubt there is any recovering third party apps trust and willingness to remain working with Reddit. Why work with someone who wouldn’t hesitate to treat you like garbage.

Yeah, I thought Soulseek went the way of Limewire and Kazaa when things like Pirate Bay and whatnot became go-to sites…

I mean, back in the day it was amazing, anything I wanted I could just about find. Random One Hit Wonder Japanese pop-punk band that I only heard about in passing? Yeah I could find their whole discography on Soulseek. It was awesome. I wish I could remember that band now..

And not just minor NSFW subs, but some of the biggest ones that probably drove a lot of revenue for content creators outside of Reddit. They literally are killing off revenue streams in protest. That’s a big thing that people who are affected by it will remember.

TBH, I was surprised it was 20 only, as I felt like I was on Apollo most of the day everyday.

Are they back in decent form at all? Me and my partner stopped watching a long time ago due to the downward spiral of their content quality and editing. It just became more of “how many times can we roll our eyes over the course of a video” than anything else.

Which sucks because our mutual enjoyment of them (among other things) was one of the things that brought us together.

(For reference, I started watching around 2012, her around 2016, and we stopped watching somewhere in 2019)

I think it’s possible. Tinker with the features, do some mockups, explore everything, “this is a great app, now if I can just get everything rolled over to this..” and then you don’t because it takes a moment of effort and then you forget.

Happens to me all the time. You can think an app is great, but haven’t had a chance to fully use it. Like I’m a huge fan of ClickUp for keeping things on track, but I also have adhd which means I end up forgetting to use it. Great app, crappy brain.

Not on GitHub, but on the "known issue" post locally.

Got it working! Thanks!

We do have Social Security that gets paid into, but it’s not a whole lot and if Republicans get their way, they will siphon the money meant for our generation in order to fund frivolous things like walls.
