Zuck claims it’s up to 30 million now

Thanks, I’ll do that!

I’m old and out of the loop but that astroturfing was so blatantly obvious it pinged my BS meter immediately.

Mazel tov!

I don’t mind if you take Earl Gray for your tea, or simply earl gray. It’s things like neglecting to put in paragraph breaks and a complete lack of punctuation that really bother me.

I also have a bias against u/ur etc. but I’m annoyingly pedantic about things like that. If Weird Al mocked it in “Word Crimes”, it’s likely on my list of peeves.

I believe Reddit is to blame… because everything bad comes from them right?

And I fully support your hypothesis here!

Regardless of how you choose to write things out, it’s always good to see another feline based username in these parts.

Yes, servers can disable downvotes. Beehaw does that, for instance. I’m on lemmy.world which allows both. I prefer both because I think it helps silence bad faith participation with less active moderation, but I respect that some places don’t want it.

Yeah I thought that whole “plea deal” was just a joke from a malignant narcissist, not a real plea deal.

This is great but I’ve turned it off because sometimes I want to go back to a post I’ve recently read to see new comments.

I really wish there was an option to hide posts I’ve downvoted. It’s still early days so I imagine that will come later.

Thanks for the PSA!

Not to be That Guy (but promptly being That Guy) do you have a source? I’ve not seen anything about him asking for a plea deal. Thanks.

His persecution fetish is showing

It honestly sounds like the place is run like a clown car.

• Distraction

• Discussion

Nailed it!

No, this loser has a persecution fetish, nothing more.

It feeds his narcissism to think people care that much offline.

What we outside fail to realize is these people live in a wholly different reality.

This.

I passed a church today with a sign saying, “The Bible is the absolute truth!” I realized that anyone who truly believes that bullshit - enough to make it a statement outside their church - is completely divorced from sanity.

These people do not perceive reality. At all. They are locked in a deranged fantasy world in their heads. They are severely impaired and their news sources and pastors work full time to keep them mentally ill and absolutely incapable of understanding reality.

I’m guessing that they will replace all of the mod teams and forcibly re-open the subreddits.

Doubt that will go as well as they’re expecting it to.

Like the world’s largest kidney stone, hopefully.

I’ve just gotta know was that local dial up in DC Digex?

I worked with Tale@UUNET during the Eternal September, providing NNTP support to our customers. God that was hell.

Reddit ran me off with a permaban 2 months ago because I wrote about the 3 boxes of liberty metaphor in a comment. 2 million+ imaginary Internet points down the drain. Glad to see the site shoot itself in the foot and looking forward to finding an alternative.

And the obligatory: fuck Spez.
