Funny thing is, this is exactly what reddit wants. When it’s time to show the traffic after API shutdown they’ll show the traffic of all the users that are protesting, and guess what, it’ll be higher than before the API shutdown

Tracking, ads, money.

You’re right.

I don’t think we will be able to believe anything we see online. These are fake videos taken from movies, once AI is able to create realistic videos this problem will get much worse.

I for sure will be deleting my account soon. Twitter became filled with spam recently, nothing interesting left to do there.

It’s sad, but it seems to me you adapted to the fediverse, I see you on my frontpage every time I check it, great content, good job!

I wonder if other official subreddits will stop being official

That’s a great way to filter people in some way. I wonder for how long this will last. I’m not saying it can’t be permanent but I’m sure at some point it will attract awful people

I would like to know why, why is it that chill people came here and why most of the awful people stayed there

Ah, the meta memes, we have evolved

Also this type of integration could be implemented, the projects are young enough to make big changes on how they work.

When spez says “We don’t want to show NSFW to users” they mean they don’t care how many users voted, they are saying “We don’t want to give a bad impression to users that will use Reddit no matter what”.
They just don’t care about anything else that isn’t money, if they could replace Reddit users with tiktok users they would be thrilled, even if they lose 12+ year old accounts with thousands of comments.
With this I’m not saying the protest is useless, it has the power to basically kill Reddit if enough users participate in it.

I think kbin has a good aproach to this, a completely different tab that allows you to make posts in the mastodon format. This could also be the case on lemmy some point, however I would understand if lemmy users don’t want this at all.

I understand, there’s many people that want nothing to do with a community like that, me included, but ultimately it will being attention to it, because some sympathize with these points of view. Hopefully the admins of shitjustworks take measures to make sure there’s no racism on their instance.

I think with time, compatibility between different services will become better, so far with lemmy limited compatibility and kbin with full compatibility, we are going in a good direction

I think this type of posts will have an opposite impact to what we want, we are just giving it the attention it needs to become what it was on Reddit, my recommendation? Block it immediately.

Then he shouldn’t get paid like all the mods

It’s very hard to say, if they kill any character in my opinion will be right at the end of the game as I’m sure they want to keep selling banners.

I have a feeling that the abyss sibling is already dead/will die like we are trapped in a cycle and all of this happened already.

I’m also think that not all archons will be playable and we will see a replacement show up, a new archon.

But idk that’s just me and my theories.

There’s multiple things to consider, both are great options, but right now I’m liking kbin more for these reasons:

• Better algorithm, when I go to my homepage I feel that the site is full of new, active content, where people are having discussions.
• Integration with Mastodon, I like to take a peek from time to time on the Microblog tab.
• No feed bug. Lemmy has a problem where it would show every single new post on top of the feed (I know this is being fixed)

Overall both Lemmy and kbin are in their infancy and I expect both to get better to a point where choosing between them won’t come down to which one of the two have less bugs, and more focused in the features and appearance you want, this ofc will change with the many apps being developed, since they will be vastly different.
I might end up in Lemmy or I might stay on kbin, it depends which one feels more “active” to me.
