You literally left Reddit because of what capitalism did to it.

[-] dartos@reddthat.com 8 points 1 year ago

Yeah but capitalism also made reddit great, before making it terrible.

There’s a balance in there somewhere. What we got ain’t it tho.

[-] ProxyTheAwesome@hexbear.net 68 points 1 year ago

Reddit was never great lmaoo

It was a pedo networking tool reknowned worldwide for it's jailbate and non-consensual creepshots. These moderators received awards from admins. Then it got too much attention and got a PR workover, burning a woman CEO at the stake to satiate the gamer-fascists before becoming a bland Atlanticist CIA sockpuppet front of bland corporate posts.

At no point during this entire thing did it ever approach anything comparable to greatness

[-] dartos@reddthat.com 12 points 1 year ago

I meant the platform more than the company.

It’s my favorite format for social media… that’s why I’m on lemmy.

[-] FunkyStuff@hexbear.net 53 points 1 year ago

communism made lemmy so where does that leave us

[-] Suoko@feddit.it 2 points 1 year ago

I guess 'a lot of free spare time in a socialized copitalism' made lemmy.

us-foreign-policy activity = (forProfit) ? "Work" : "Hobby"

[-] VikingHippie@lemmy.wtf 5 points 1 year ago

That's precious..

[-] SouthEndSunset@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

Are you saying you used Reddit for its jailbait etc subs? Cause Reddit was much more than it’s jailbait subs.

You’re right. Your comment was very well written, and backed up with so much evidence. I shouldn’t be questioning it.

[-] Egon@hexbear.net 6 points 1 year ago

Thank you, glad you can admit when you're wrong. It shows growth.

PIGPOOPBALLS

[-] SouthEndSunset@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Lol. Google “facetious” and “sarcasm”.

[-] Egon@hexbear.net 12 points 1 year ago

I can't unfortunately. Putin doesn't allow me to use google while I spread disinformatsiya sadness

[-] Egon@hexbear.net 2 points 1 year ago

Also you should really do the same

[-] SouthEndSunset@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

It’s ok. Hard to pick up in text. An “/s” would have helped.

[-] Egon@hexbear.net 2 points 1 year ago

If your sarcasm needs an /s it's shit sarcasm and you've got terrible timing.

[-] SouthEndSunset@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Kind of validating my sarcasm buddy. The point of sarcasm it’s hard to grasp. You can leave it now.

[-] Egon@hexbear.net 1 points 1 year ago

That's not the point of sarcasm. Do you even know your linguistics? Sarcasm has no point - No tonal conveyance really does - but if you wanna get theoretic with it the point of sarcasm is to deliver critique without the sting, or to subvert expectations and deliver a joke. There isn't a lot of methods of communication were the point of it is to be hard to understand - though some methods are of course used to carry dual meanings to different audiences.

And there's the humility again, you really are capable of growing as a person. I'm proud of you! (tone clarifier: I'm still being sarcastic)

[-] SouthEndSunset@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

I’m still being sarcastic

No shit.

Dude, so sarcasm isnt meant to be got so easy, at least not by everyone. Take your own advice....LEARN.

[-] Egon@hexbear.net 1 points 1 year ago

It just seemed like you were having a hard time, so I decided to help you, because I'm such a nice guy!
Your comebacks are getting worse btw :(

[-] SouthEndSunset@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Obvious sarcasm is obvious.

How can my comebacks be getting worse when I havent put any? Only sarcasm....

[-] Egon@hexbear.net 1 points 1 year ago

they're really boring now :((

[-] SouthEndSunset@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Cheers for introducing me to Hexbear.

[-] Egon@hexbear.net 0 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

enjoy your stay, you should probably learn about tone signifiers and other neurodivergent inclusive initiatives

[-] SouthEndSunset@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Im fine with both.

Ill try not to be so deliberately sarcastic people dont realise its sarcasm. Why dont you grow and learn that people do do this?

[-] Egon@hexbear.net 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah that's totally what I meant good on ya.

[-] SouthEndSunset@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

LOL. Lets not forget it was you that didnt realise I was being sarcastic and had a hissy fit over it. Are you American or Canadian? One doesnt get sarcams and one really doesnt get sarcasm.

[-] Egon@hexbear.net 1 points 1 year ago

Lets not forget it was you that didnt realise I was being sarcastic and had a hissy fit over it.

Dude, I never didn't get it, I kept the joke going. Do you still not get it?

Are you American or Canadian?

Neither

[-] SouthEndSunset@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago
[-] Egon@hexbear.net 1 points 1 year ago

Bamboozled even, I kinda thought the old-schools smileys would make it obvious

[-] SouthEndSunset@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Not the first time someones told me my sarcasms wrong cause they didnt get it dude. Learn. And grow.

Seriously though, will be checking out Hexbear.

[-] Egon@hexbear.net 3 points 1 year ago

I refuse to learn. My mind is perfectly smooth, free of nasty wrinkly crevices or filthy neurons firing wildly.
You should refrain from using /s though, but tone signifiers are never a bad thing! It's a weird double standard I guess.

[-] SouthEndSunset@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

It’s a fucking minefield mate. All the best.

[-] ConsciousLochNess@hexbear.net 10 points 1 year ago

Are you really trying to do that?

[-] SouthEndSunset@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago
[-] BigNote@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

It was good when it had only a few hundred thousand users, but obviously you weren't there.

[-] ProxyTheAwesome@hexbear.net 16 points 1 year ago

no that was when it was a jailbait/creepshots/libertarian/"hacker" site. Still not good. Still pedo and soy.
