The longer ive stayed off reddit, the more I have grown the love the benifits of Lemmy. Discussions are civil, the vibe is a lot more chill and if anything, it invites users to participate. I wasn't sure if I would manage to avoid reddit given how addicted I was to it. Suddenly, I feel like I've found a better place...

I think you are missing out on the difference. Errors are made and that wasn't the issue, the issue was not taking the time to properly correct and stop misinformation from spreading (comment not pinned, replacement of videos without notifying of the change, never ever taking down a faulty video). Not doing the right thing should and will have a negative impact on your reputation. If gamer nexus does the same, I would support every other channel that calls them out on that. Billet labs not suing isn't proof that the way it was handled was acceptable. Billet labs seems to have taken the high road to try and move ahead of what is unacceptable behavior from LMG. I also disagree on the free advertising. Advertising is helpful if you have a product to sell, trashing the reputation by improperly testing simply because LMG cannot be "troubled" to do their job properly is indicative of bad management.

LMG has two choices, either they stop calling themselves a real tech reviewer and go all in the "entertainment" genre or be accountable to be a respectable tech reviewer. GN rightfully pointing that out for no financial gain is what I consider a true friend moment. We all make mistakes, LMG has a rare opportunity to really reflect and decided to correct thanks to the efforts of someone that has the courage to call things out, especially given the clout LMG has in this space.

3 cars? I've seen people do crazy stunts to either end up one car ahead or worse overtake me only find me again at the next traffic light

Can confirm, not just with the game but similar activities eg: stacking those body parts into a nice cube really takes away from the stress of killing someone

Have I visted reddit, yes. Do I use it? No. I have grown to love lemmy. Disconnecting from a hyper charged, conterversy seeking website has done me good!

Don't get me wrong, reddit was amazing until it's CEO wanted to cash in on the hard work done by its community. I don't have an issue with being profitable, the means used simply isn't acceptable.

Boost was my go-to as well! Waiting for it to come out for lemmy

Site looks very promising. Would be great to have an explainer video on how to find the right instance and how to join groups across instances for new comers. For sure the site has a learning curve but given the state of reddit, I for sure want to look for an alternative.

It is a blessing for someone like me who had a lot of difficulties to stay away from reddit. Lemmy gives me a slow paced window of reddit, with RSS feeds taking up the rest of the free time. So in the end the time I spend is more focussed on my interests but driven by reputable sites instead of someone in reddit.

Independent journalist Andrei Zakharov, citing an unnamed source, said Prigozhin on Wednesday was returning to Russia from a trip in Africa, where Wagner mercenaries have operated for years and where Prigozhin was recently filmed for a recruitment video.

“It would be a miracle if he’s on another plane,” the source said.>

I've abandoned reddit.. just hoping that them nsfw subreddits come over too..

Wow.. looks so close! Amazing to see Piastri killing it with the quali

To be honest, if my current phone had the a reliable way for me to change it's battery, I would keep it for longer even! I got my custom ROM going with the latest updates, pixel ported cam. The only limitation I have is lack of 5g and reduced battery life. In all honesty, with chargers in my car, work and home, it hasn't become a reason to change yet.

Couldn't chat gpt do it for you?

unfortunately it is whatsapp.. Had everyone move to signal, but it didn't last :(

Two teams moved up.. McLaren n Williams.. looks like today was let move legendary British racing teams up the ladder day

Even that is a lame excuse, waterproof phones event existed in the replaceable battery era! Speaking of the replaceable battery era, I remember those extended batteries. With a thicker back cover, we got even bigger batteries. It's a pity how we have no choice now.

It is probably an app. Can you show a screenshot?

It was 100% payback from Stroll imho for Gasly pushing him off. He came into the track knowing full well he was going to push Gasly off or worse.

Pretty and nice.. the fact that there is Chrome around Google Chrome is a fun touch
