I found out today that they have removed r/all from the mobile platforms.
The one unifying feed... Heaven for it folk experience consensus media or have a shared experience.
By slicing it all up they can tweak individual algorithms to push more jank than ever. No longer do they have to game the system to get AstroTurfed Ads on the front page.
Actually, didn't they used to call themselves the "front page of the internet"? How does that work if no one sees the same page?
I think most people unsubscribe from r/all anyway and subscribe to subs related to their favorite hobbies and games and work related info. Most of my frontpage is for video games I'm currently playing, programs I'm currently using and odd fun subs like moviemistakes or maybemaybemaybe. I wish I could do that here.
And that's all cool... But it is weird to take that choice away from users.
Much like here, a quick browse of all introduces me to a wider world with different concerns. It's how I find stuff.
And I'm pretty sure what you do is possible here... What are you having a problem with?
I can't figure out how to unsub from the Lemmy version of r/all. So I'm getting latestagecapitalism, politics, politicalmemes, various communist instances. 80% of what's on my page is politics. I'm not interested in that.
Forgot fuckcars. Not a day goes by that I don't see it.
What client are you using?
On Voyager there is a tab at the top to switch between all and "home". Home is just the subs you subscribe to.
I don't know who this guy is, but the fact that he is crying on twitter about being shadow-banned on reddit tells me I don't really give a fuck about him, his opinion, or his perceived slights against him.
Niche communities don’t turn on a dime to a new platform. He’s on Twitter because his audience is on Twitter.
I care if reddit is dishonestly enforcing rules to force people to buy ads. That's good for us actually. If only we had more enlightened instances with more functionality.
there are still people on reddit? thats a bot hell
Fuck Reddit and Fuck Spez.
Dude needs to go play in traffic.
Fuck reddit and all the admins that attempt to run it.
an ad spend
When you're off the used car lot, 'spend' is still only a verb, and the word you wanted here is maybe 'purchase' or 'deal'.
'The spend', 'the ask', and other cheese should stay back with the pre-owned Pontiacs.
It's corporate speak, imo.
I hate it too.
They also like to call everything "assets." Not a "picture" or an "image" or a "decoration" or a million other descriptive words. It's all "assets." When the corporates talk like that they are emphasizing ownership and profitabiliy. "Put that money-making thing we own there." "Lisa, which folder did you put that money-making thing we own in?"
🤢
pre-owned Pontiacs.

You mean a company that owns a platform is operating it only to make money? Shocking. You already were fooled once with the first reddit exodus. Now it is just shame on you for expecting things not to go this way.
What's a Reddit?
I think it's the name for one of those weird sex moves.
Fuck Reddit
Once I got banned like a thousand times within the span of 5 minutes because I reported a pro-Trump post as child abuse. I assume it really triggered some admin.
I wonder if this admin was named maxwellhill.
