If that wasn’t abstract enough … there was Ren & Stimpy.
I always wished this would be on the 1.st setup startpage of every home router. ever. It would make me very happy
I’d want to love it…
but as ridiculous as it sounds, for something like this to be really useful to me I unfortunately need a mobile app. a web-app seems hard to realize for a real e2e encryption & sync - for my scenario :(
I’m aware how much effort this is already… it looks good but as much as I want to use it, I can’t due to my workflow requiring a mobile device app (iOS in my case)
but it does look really promising!
Reddit will never be normal again after this. Someone else said it recently - It doesn't matter if only 5% (or less) of the user base leave because this 5% will most likely be the most passionate and active users actively creating content that is not advertisement.
In the long run; the content quality will decline because of that.
In addition, these statistics likely do not distinguish what is bot traffic that are scraping the site vs users. The bots will keep scraping.
It might be cheap but it’s also very reliable, intuitive, familiar and all that in even weird conditions… which millions of controllers prove in any gamers household every day. In addition it’s used by military forces all around the world - including bomb squads because it works (mostly its the xbox 360 as far ad know)
the problem is elsewhere - i’m almost certain of it.
Best I can do is spent some of the claps I have left from the generous clapping during covid.
Isn’t 1passwoed subscription only? If I remember correctly that’s what drove me away from a once great application.
and now they want to collect data from paying customers?? excuse me? are you insane?
crash and burn.
As much as I dislike what’s going on - sabotaging ones work has next to 0 impact on the company scheme of things. All it does is, give you a bad exit once you leave - or if you keep it up long enough get fired.
worst case ending up with a bad reputation in the long run, since sind companies do ask previous employers for feedback. sometimes without your “ok”.
I would not recommend sabotaging your work an future
Giving an interview to press, bloggers, podcasters and stating the facts and truth afterwards… or something in that line is likely more beneficial for everyone and yourself.
I you decide it’s time to leave - regardless of reasons - try a clean exit for your own good. If you have been mistreated at work, seek legal advice.
„they” could have “solved” the necessity for owning a pirate hat. but they fucked up too many times.
even if you’re ok with just streaming and owning nothing for your money… you need like 6 subscriptions to listen and watch the stuff you want. I’m not willing nor able to spend hundreds for nothing. I used that money to purchase a large hard drive and some cool tshirts from my favorite bands.
greed is an ugly removed and I am wearing yet again my trusty old pirate hat.
Don’t know why but I’m skeptical. AAA releases have been quite often a disappointment for me the past few years. Hope it’s going to keep the promise…
Jup. Deleted all my posts, guides and comments yesterday.
I think it's somewhat dramatic for the "future" since so much of reddit is absolutley great knowledge. I can't count how many times a reddit post or comment has helped me solve all kinds of weird problems...
I'm in the EU so I did a GDPR data request before deleting and essentially have a backup of all my own content. I'll filter through it and put on Lemmy or my blog what I think is worth keeping.
I personnaly agree with you. If content is not supposed to be searchable, maybe don't post it online. It is a different problem for writers, artists and possibly even journalists.
But I think it's a fair debate - unfortuantely one that was one (or the only?) reason the whole reddit API debacle startetd.
On the other hand maybe Lemmy should allow certain communities allow an "only for members" view?
