Everyone on reddit knows that if the mods are in the wrong, you start an alternative sub, and see if that takes off. This whole thing has been training users to start an alternative reddit.

Its not too bad, you can define the UID that your podmab process runs on since it can run as its own process and not be reliant on a daemon. It makes you do a little more admin work, but honestly you have to start doing that anyway in a lot of environments.

I have had good experimental experiences with podman, but my biggest barrier to adopting it is how old the packaged version with debian is. I'm hoping to see if I can do some damage with the release of bookworm.

Does this dude even use reddit? The proper response on reddit to users not agreeing with mods is to start their own sub to fill the void. That's what happened with r/animetitties. But guess what - no one is doing that because we all don't want to see these changes. Sorry to vent more about this loser, but c'mon man.

Go ahead dude, I'm done with reddit.

The real solution is for the developer of apollo to make it work as a lemmy client. You should probably let him know.

That's how it is on most internet forums tbh

Just want to point out, Naomi Wu is not the best person to point out when it comes to defending China: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naomi_Wu

I really doubt that applies to patreon links.

You don't need to monetize too hard with fediverse. Anyone can self host an instance, no venture capital loans needed.

[-] spark431@kbin.social 21 points 1 year ago

No, this is what makes the fediverse work. It doesn't matter if you are being honest with your intentions or not. It's your instance, you get to do what you want with it - that's the honest part. No tricking people for years and then charging them.

If you don't like the actions an instance is taking, host your own.

Who cares? I actually think that even though this is ultimately a bad decision on Reddit's part, they are well within their right to make it.

I guess I'm not the intended audience of reddit anymore, but all I am is someone that wants to have a conversation with other people on the internet without getting interrupted by ads, while using a client that I like. I even was willing to pay money for this, and I did pay for the pro relay app, but since reddit is breaking compatibility with it, it is time to move on to the fediverse. I want to have more ownership of my content anyway, and I am an IT engineer anyway, so it is time to make that happen. Self host my own instance and participate on other instances.

Why do you keep buying these weird electronics? I have a coffee grinder that works exactly as you describe - press a button and it spins a grinder for a number of seconds set by a dial, up to 30.
