Remember how they took gold awards, a user made bot, and monetized it?

Firefox did the same.
And I actually love it.
You’re saying this… On Lemmy. You do know we have three different “trending” settings here, right?
I honestly much prefer the idea of a chronological feed too, but disagree that’s what kills a platform. Tumblr has both the chronological and the trending for you/for all, and it was also ignored.
I think this is the perfect opportunity to plug to everyone the concept of password managers and other basic web security concepts.
In fact, I’m tempted to say I WANT people to know I’m not the one downvoting them when I disagree.
Honestly, Docket with a GUI just becomes super easy I actually got a bit spoiled. Used to use Kitematic, which even had a browser, but that’s gone. I’m back to terminal only now, but alas.
There’s a video that shows exactly this phenomenon in real time.
The most important people are the first followers. A website with a guy commenting alone is sad for the guy. A website with a couple people commenting is sad for whoever’s not talking.
Not every community is as garbage as Overwatch’s. Stardew Valley’s and Hollow Knight’s are super chill.
Same thing for every single-game community. Dota’s deserted. Also things like patientgamers is lowering in activity.
/r/Piracy
That’s not the real games piracy sub anyways. The true successor of the scene-watching community is and always was /r/CrackWatch and even there people are very aware that they’re not contributors, just spectators. So basically, it was a place for movies piracy, and movies piracy is and always been the most piss easy, top result on google piracy around. I haven’t gone on a single website to pirate movies in a decade, shit is all searchable either directly on qBit and deluge or on tracker tools.
They don’t want to come over, so what? They’re irrelevant. A wiki service reddit, barely anything else. A place for people who unironically install uTorrent and don’t even know what the u stands for.
I think there won’t be an immediate rush, but I do think there will be a sporadic sine wave of people checking out the place. Funny enough the best thing people can do is hold off posting memes and then doing it on the 1st of July for maximum engagement.
It’s okay babe, happens to a lot of men.
Oh shit I only get one opportunity to say something witty and I just wasted
This works, but it’s very amnoying to write for long urls on mobile. I seriously hope we get a “subscribe on external community” button added at some point, so that we don’t have to do this stuff when direct linked to a communty.
I like this attitude. Nothing can make a ressit community the official unless if it’s a branded product’s reddit, and at that point, why the FUCK do you want your community in the control of the brand?
You can’t removed about Riot on the LeagueofLegends sub like you can removed about Blizzard on Overwatch and whatnot. That is not a good location for the communty.
I just sort by hot, check twice a day, make a thread if I want an inbox and it’s fine
When the Twitter-pocalypse was happening I did check out Tumblr a fair bit more. Dear god, that place was like 10 times funnier since the porn ban. It’s like the whole place aged up a bunch and the people left were far more mature and creative. Like, seeing the whole Goncharov thing unfold was amazing.
But if you have any more niche interest, yeah, place is much slower.
Honestly, someone should just make a browser add-on for this, and that would solve the problem for a large chunk of people, since most users appear to be techies.
Nice story bro, but I know this is fake as shit. You only wrote fake stories once here. This one. Can’t fool me.

BrosLosers would be really mad at reading that, if they weren’t busy fellating the owners of BoredApes after they made them blind.…
What? No, that’s not a joke.

“Had a good time with the homies who also got their eyes burned”. These people are unbelievably down there in the pathetic human scale.
