Thanks for this, I feel like there's a lot of black-and-white thinking going on here. It seems like the only options presented are "burn it down!" or "you're a scab".

If moderators/subreddits are going to migrate, they're already going to be aware about it and probably thinking about it.

I am a mod as well, I cannot see how someone politely asking if we are thinking about making a community on a diff platform can be perceived as pestering?

Think about it from this side: users can't see what messages the mods are getting. You're asking people to DM moderators - politely doesn't matter. What if 10 people see your message and act on it? Then you've got 10 people saying "Are you guys gonna migrate? Are you migrating? What do you think about migrating?"

It appears this is individual and not every mod will be annoyed and not every mod wont be annoyed.

Very true, but I really don't think unsolicited messages to subreddits asking them to migrate - for YOUR benefit - is a good idea. In any case, forget about migrating. Just create the communities you want to see here, on lemmy/kbin/wherever. You don't need to wait for moderators to do it.

GO DM MODS OF YOUR FAVORITE SUBREDDITS AND POLITELY ASK ABOUT MIGRATION!

Please don't do this. I'm a moderator of a sub (won't say which one). From a personal standpoint I'm happy to use both platforms. Vilify me if you will. But I do not want to see messages from users asking if we're going to migrate. That's pestering and it won't go well if that particular subreddit isn't into it.

"share" is obvious in what it does, and efficient in terms of using space on the website. I like it.

How long is this likely to stay online? It sounds like it's circumventing paid services (YouTube Music, specifically) - I can't see Google being too happy about people skipping out on paying for their service.

(I'm not saying this is a bad idea, I'm openly wondering about the longevity of the app and slightly nervous about the dev's wallet when it might come to a lawsuit. I don't know if that's a thing that would happen.)

"Upvote" does nothing

Not exactly - it's technically a "favorite" button. Since I learned exactly what you typed out, I've been using it as a way to save posts I want to read later. However it is correct that it does nothing for reputation.

Quick update...I re-installed the PWA and it was just as sluggish as before. The only thing I didn't try was maybe clearing the cache / data for the app if that's possible (I don't install a lot of PWAs on my phone).

@admin Cool. Yeah I guess I was hoping for both the ability to filter posts marked as NSFW, and also instances of that string in the post. Mastodon is super flexible in that regard.

Re: Apple + privacy

I believe most of their intentions about restricting 3rd parties from seeing your data is keeping it for themselves. IIRC Apple plans to (if they haven't already, I'm on the Android platform) release their own ad service using their own proprietary data.

This is semantics...people use a convention of [original content] on reddit, whether it's an official implementation or not. It's like before Twitter got official retweets. I didn't realize there was a flair/badge for this on kbin until just now, but it feels like an extension of that manual function. In spirit, it exists on reddit.
