Calling GNOME a radically different interface is kind of overstating it. It basically just replaces the taskbar/dock with the overview

the blackout is like if a union went on strike but agreed to come back to work in two days regardless of whether any of their demands were met. it's hard to see this affecting reddit at all tbh

redditors, what is the sexiest le sex you've ever sexed?

Sounds like a good feature, though not exactly a ‘disadvantage’, without a comparison. Is the comparison Mastodon? Reddit?

This is definitely a disadvantage in comparison to Mastodon imo. For example, there's no reason for a general-purpose instance to defederate from lemmynsfw.com, but it would be nice if I could browse all and not have it be half porn without hiding all nsfw posts in general.

not sure this is a better solution for being able to focus on reading than just like putting your phone in another room for an hour for free

based on mastodon servers blowing up when people "left" twitter, like 90% of new users will be gone in a couple weeks

a lot of obviously made up posts on aita are more ragebait than just entertainment, so it might kind of drift into misinformation

I like rust a lot, but it's definitely in the place Go was a few years ago, where people just assume "written in rust" = good for some reason.

now that arch has an actual install script, i'm not sure if there's much reason to use an arch derivative instead of just using arch

yeah, it could be more comfortable than a normal ereader for reading lying on your back or something, but it seems really gimmicky

4chan definitely got worse. like it was always edgy and stupid, but after 2015 every board just kind of became /pol/

I feel like the most plausible likelihood is just that it's physically impossible to travel between stars in a reasonable timeframe

The idea that people thought they needed to explain the different Klingon makeup because of a throwaway joke in a comedic episode is honestly crazy

who doesn’t absolutely need to be on Twitter for their job

does this include journalists who would need to actually write articles instead of just embedding 10 tweets and writing a couple linking sentences

Reddit is anti-nintendo? r/all has been full of posts about how great the new Zelda is since it came out
