Sign language yes, real time captions no. Only whatever live transcription crap your phone or computer could do
Is this the same CEO who fired the entire documentation team and then gave herself a raise?
sign of the times
We've had actors in videogames for as long as there's been the ability to play samples at a high enough quality. Hell, the 90s FMJ era was full of them. Some good, some not so good.
As always is the case. It's a pr stunt
Keep in mind the users left on reddit aren't really the cream of the crop. They're the ones who say stuff like "bruhhh this app is shit" fully unaware that reddit is a website first and foremost
Reddit is competing with Instagram and TikTok for the dumbest slice of the Internet. If you can think, you're no longer welcome there, and are probably a liability to their advertising efforts
Have you been to digg recently? It's a buzzfeed clone. Just because the brand is still around doesn't mean it's the same product at all
It's like if I bought Nike and then killed off all their product lines and only sold high viscosity lithium grease. Yeah Nike would be around, but it would be meaningless beyond that
All of them are lawful
Pretty easy to make an instance that would auto vote certain things with suspicious amounts of votes
As it stands now, they have to fake the origin of some of those votes. Not much of a barrier, the fediverse generally accepts any user an instance says exists, but still, it's a barrier
And of course any instance thats blatantly manipulating votes is going to be defederated, but I'm more concerned with an instance that behaves normally until it encounters a keyword or user is been set to, and then gives their posts a -5 or whatever
How do you know those posts are by real people? Reddit is incentivized to downplay and damage its competition.
Also, its not like reddit isn't without its glitches. Throughout its entire history, reddit has been plagued with downtimes, random 502/504s, and a myriad of other issues. I'd be hard pressed to believe they had more than two nines of uptime, and would not believe more than three.
Gfycat was the only good gif hoster. The rest, tenor, giphy, etc, are all corporate buzzfeed slop, that were primarily used by dimwits to decorate their shitty blog posts with (remember the various reddit admin feature announcements that had like 300 stupid gifs in them?)
That valuation cut was from before the whole shitstorm. We've yet to see the impact that this has all had on them, but given the attempts to crush the protests by the reddit admins, when they've just sort of ignored this stuff in the past, its likely not good
How about they cut executive pay instead of fucking the rank and file over
