What's wrong with using a browser to view Lemmy? Seems like a lot of posts are about best apps for Lemmy. Am I missing out on something by not using an app? in c/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world

desktop browser is the best! if you wanna write a quality comment that links to sources and quotes people, there's just nothing better. I couldn't imagine writing anything useful on some app on a touch screen. and even when I zombiescroll on the toilet, the mobile browser did fine with old.reddit. and no extra software clogging up my devices, that's a massive benefit for me.

What’s with social media companies trying to destroy themselves recently? in c/RedditMigration@kbin.social

[–] muftiboy@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

themselves? I haven't seen Twitter Reddit or Fuckerberg file for bankruptcy. what they destroy is their communities and your ability to speak.

that's much worse

The Reddit protest was doomed to fail in c/reddit@kbin.social

reddit wants you to leave so they can replace you with AI. that's why they don't give a shit and that's the bigger game that many don't see.

PSA: every interaction you make with various posts on kbin is viewable to everyone. in c/kbinMeta@kbin.social

I think that regular users don't really care, why would anyone obsess about tracking down which account liked which post? the only people who get into that sort of thing, are people who likely manipulate with multiple accounts themselves. and they don't wanna be traceable and that's why they're afraid of this feature.

“Reddit cannot survive without its moderators. It cannot.” That’s a recent quote from Reddit’s VP of community, Laura Nestler. in c/RedditMigration@kbin.social

they were always lying, they were always gonna replace people with AI. they just didn't want you to know back then, that's all this means. they still needed u to train their model...

Reddit feels like it's gone back to 100% normalcy already. Was the protest a failure? in c/RedditMigration@kbin.social

"I don't know how to use reddit. does that mean the protest was a failure?"
