   I would be fine paying a monthly fee to be able to keep using RIF. Reddit throwing up an iron curtain and thinking it'll ultimately end up benefiting them is such a head-scratcher.

   This is the same dude: https://lemmygrad.ml/ He's got a massive communist drum to beat if you're into that thing.

   Lemmy is run by an extremist. I'd be fine migrating somewhere else as long as it isn't there.

   This is such a cool idea. Some people are so cleaver.

   If you don't use old mode in a mobile browser, they block off 1/3 of your screen with "Are you sure you don't want to use the Reddit App?" Pretty sure I don't Reddit.

    The world of Minecraft mods has always been a bleep-show. Massive community but ignored by the developers for the most part. I'm surprised malware isn't more rampant.

    Slashdot should be a harbinger to Reddit. Community can just leave. Reddit is happily shutting out very active partners instead of working with them.

    Not saying we should start eating things alive, but most of the animal kingdom practices it. It's weird for current humans, but that's about it.

    This is actually correct, at least the effect it will have on Crimea's water supply.

    There needs to be a nerdy online official saint or knighthood title for people like this.

    You may not like who funded the article, but it still makes valid points about the limitations of science research being so heavily connected to the mouse-maze that is college academics.

    The pricing seems to be aimed at killing 3rd party apps, rather than making them partners. Reddit seems to be entering it's late-stage period. I wonder what will replace it.

    Lots of 3rd party Reddit apps are going down as well. RIF is a great android app for example. It is Reddit for me and I'm not going to install the official app. I'll go away rather than be stuffed in their Clockwork Orange media c

    Unfortunately though only corporations and governments will be able to wield it. The common person will be at their whim more than ever.

    I don't know if we're at the tipping point yet, but when I read reports like this I feel like it's getting pretty damn close.

    I experience the opposite of this, but I guess everyone's use case is different. They do use SpamAssasin and it seems pretty effective.

    Seems like there should be a few more tiers, but the posting rate one needs to require the $100 tier lends that the platform is becoming a core part of your business, etc. Maybe it'll slow some of the bot trolls. etc too.

    Wikipedia is as biased as the writers of the articles. Wikipedia has articles outlining bias in its own articles. These things are authored by people, and people are biased. Wikipedia knows this and so should its readers. They aren't u

    Right. Or the incredibly dumb and loud backfire packages they put on their exhaust. So many cars have them now around me. Thanks California. There should be regulation outlawing them. It sounds like gun fire all day.
