How do they expect to survive without serach, if they can't even profit with search?

Oh god

Ah. A certified internet classic

This seems to be the most popular one, though I can't use it in the way its written here, because it will fuck up DNS. I'll substitute the dots with dashes and then it should work.

Yes. I loved Reddit for a LONG time. They started to crumble in my opinion when the added these Snooavatars, which later turned into a NFT scheme. I never bothered with these. The promise of the website was awesome though. Being able to follow interests and communities instead of people was a completely new concept, which I had never seen before. Now it feels like the corporate greed has finally completely taken over.

Time to jump ship.

gif. With a hard g, because there is also .jiff and you could not distinguish otherwise.

Good argument. But isn't that always the case when asking if ppl are / aren't into a topic? A person, who is invested in the topic is way more likely to reply. I agree with you, but I don't know how I could've avoided said issue.

Messages are never deleted, only hidden, a GDPR violation

This is partly true. Messages are not really deleted until you delete your account.

Deleted usernames are also not deleted, only hidden, same thing

This is true

Stuff remains on federated servers even if you delete it

If everything works according to plan it should be gone, though there might be cases, where some instances don't update.

These question were also answered in this github issue.

EDIT: Imho this should be changed. At least the first two points. It does not need to be 100% foolproof on other instances, as they may be down when the deletion happens, but I think that the instance, which hosts the content should NOT have the content after deletion. Another idea would be to edit comments / posts to just say "[removed]".

Holy sh*t. Das ganze ist ja regelrecht explodiert in den letzten Tagen.

I still don't get, why ppl go to blue sky.

Like, he sold his platform before, what says that he would not sell out again?

Yes. It missed the joke though. Framstag is the combination of Friday and Saturday in German. It is used for advertising by a store chain named Penny.

now we can merge the bsd source tree

God, I miss the old UI of Windows Phone. I do not want to know how much telemetry was going on there, but the UI and UX was awesome imho

When I opt out, do they delete or lock my account?

This is genius! Why didn't I think if that before?

I also selfhost forgejo and im really happy with it. (I moved from GitLab.) Personally I cant wait for federation (which GitLab is also working on). If it were so be implemented, then ppl could actually contribute so projects on selfhosted git servers, which I am really looking forward so.

Fair. Personally I prefer wireless, since my headphone wires break all the time due to heavy use, but I can understand, why you'd like to be able to use both.

Ich bin außerhalb des Kreises. Was ist passiert?

Ich gebe dir zwar Recht, dass es einem Persönlich helfen kann, nicht in die Kommentare und auf TikTok zu gucken, aber leider hilft dies nicht den Diskurs zu verbessern.

Dieser findet nun halt auch auf TikTok bzw. YT statt und ihn einfach zu ignorieren wäre mMn ein großer Fehler, da dies den Echo Chamber-Effekt verstärken würde.
