This is the kind of thing more appropriate for an UnethicalLifeProTips community lol.

Oh yeah, 100% with Yvonne and Teren. It’s kinda like Teren’s like “you hired me as CEO, now let me be CEO and back off.”

Unrelated hot take but the thumbnails don’t seem as egregious as others I’ve seen, but honestly I might’ve just gotten used to them, or I pay more attention to what he’s holding or something.

On another note, I do also hope things get better. Unfortunately, I’m disappointed in Linus’s own response in the video as he still victimized himself, but he said some things that seemed genuine after. Half the stuff about Billet labs I found reasonable but the rest seemed half-baked. Hats off to the rest of his staff and his CEO though—they were very genuine and not shy about taking accountability. I appreciate the CEO taking charge as he’s a much more sane voice than Linus in my opinion, and I appreciate Yvonne standing up.

Hell yeah (btw)

I…really think this is ironic, there’s no way someone who’s kinda pissed about “cultural appropriation” would use that many table flips and say owo and stuff

Haha, those are the best kinds of arguments.

I don't think it'll really become mainstream because honestly, a lot of people on Reddit and other platforms don't really care about changes to the platforms. It's frustrating but in the end, they're just casual users and it won't affect them that much, and that's ok, we don't need every single person to be an expert, yk. I do like the way the decentralized internet is now.

Also surprisingly haven't come across bigotry yet haha.

Agreed, I think the more personal nature of Lemmy kinda helps.

also shamelessly plugging !windows_help@iusearchlinux.fyi.

I am haha. Just deleted my Reddit. Looking forward to see this place grow! We'll get the "best SAT prep for my 2-year old child?" type of posts in no time!

Agreed, but it's 48 hours later, and it seems like more and more subreddits have decided to continue protesting indefinitely, which I'm really happy to see. I too have no clue how effective it'll be, but it's showing a much clearer message.
