Pretty sure we’re witnessing an AI gaining sentience. Amazing times.

Nothing specific on Lemmy yet, mostly sorting by new or active and scrolling through.

Back on Reddit, I was mostly on hobbyist subs, such as /r/mechanicalkeyboards, /r/hiking, /r/trucksim and /r/simracing

Hello from your tiny neighbour down south ;)

Feddit.de because Deutschsprachig and I loved Reddit, but would love to see a successfully federated version of it.

Anger and spite, like what other have mentioned, but also, it’s always nice to be part of a growing community.

You feel like you’re actually contributing rather than just being a statistic.

I think u/spez should be the first to do an AMA right here on lemmy.

Well, at least there’s closure for the loved ones then.

So, what’s the key benefit of using it then?

Man, I miss the days of offline multiplayer. Split-screens, one person hogging WASD and the other the arrow keys.

Shit, I’m old.

That makes sense actually. Not a bad idea at all.

The native app is decent, if you haven’t tried any of the other third-party apps.

I joined Reddit back during the Alien Blue days and transitioned over to Apollo when it launched. Using the native app felt like I stumbled onto a porn-addled spyware site with the ads and quirky UI/UX.

It was possible to use after some time, but after a week, I noped out and went back to Apollo.

“Never enhance images for these sites:”

Parkour!

I’d love to see someone code in the actual Comic Sans rather than the awesomely adapted Comic Mono. Indentation be damned!

This is my pile of shit. There are many like it, but this one is mine.

Why not add it to a wishlist, then purchase it when it launches, or when it goes on sale?

I have never pre-ordered anything, because it always felt like I would immediately lose my money, but yet I can’t use or have the item I paid for. Maybe it’s just my insecurity when it comes to finances.

It’s certainly fantastic and unprecedented, that different user bases, from very different types of platforms are able to come together and interact from their platforms of choice.

We may be witnessing a disruption right now. I do see more benefits than drawbacks with federated content, but that could just be my very biased point of view.

Genuinely curious why people pre-order. Is it because of the initial excitement and FOMO kicking in? Or is it a true belief that pre-ordering will support the creators to produce a better final product?

Edit: Punctuation and spelling.

Man, this is turning out to be one of the worst pre-IPO disasters in history, if this move was indeed for Reddit to increase its valuation for an upcoming IPO. Really shot themselves in the foot with a shotgun.

Perhaps not enough content yet. I’m not getting any positive hits on Bing or Brave search.

One concern about federation is that search engines could potentially (and likely) dilute results because they appear to be coming from different sites and URLs.

Sweet Jesus. I never imagined so many subreddits would go dark over this.
