The reddit mobile browser is literally broken and keeps getting worse. They are updating it a lot, but I swear to god it gets worse and increasingly broken with each iteration. I actually liked the browser when they initially killed 3rd party apps, but shortly after that it got a huge redesign that was infinitely worse than before. I am thoroughly convinced they want that experience to be miserable so I go download and use their ad-infested shitty app instead. Fuck reddit.

My new year’s resolution is to post more threads in “dead” communities I care about. Thanks for the perspective.

No different than Trump

Interesting, thanks for the insight.

And so it begins

And they could be under a gag order nobody would ever know.

This sounds a little tinfoil-hat-y but I don’t really know what I’m talking about.

I’m still salty and disappointed how most people continue to stay there knowing all this shit

I cancelled all my subscription services today and fired up the ol’ abandoned Plex server. I was paying for the convenience for awhile to be honest, but I’m over it now. Internet and a VPN are mostly all anybody needs anymore.

I don’t think there’s a good way to control this. Sounds like these kids were never taught empathy

Damn, this is exactly how I feel. Well said. I honestly feel free after spending over a decade on that god damn website.

You’re right, apparently it’s more like 200.

Sync is also one dev while reddit employs over 50 devs for their mobile app alone.

I haven’t looked into why they’re doing this, so maybe this insight is obvious and well known, but I imagine it has to do with the fact that they spend a shitton of money on these spaces/leases that they can’t easily get out of, so their way of dealing with it is by forcing employees to use it. My company is going through a similar situation, but they’re accepting the responsibility of eating the cost of the office space lease with several years left on the contract and don’t even try to entice people to use it. “Come in if you want, it’s going to be here for awhile!” is about as far as it goes, haha. Fuck Amazon.

Renewables power entire countries at this point. What the fuck are you talking about?

Someone sounds jealous of the $30 in net profit I earned from crypto over the span of 3 years.

I feel like people just want to hang out and talk about stuff. We don’t always need to be wowed by some crazy high quality content or new OC. We just want to hang out with friends and shoot the shit. Most of us are on here to distract us from whatever bullshit we should probably be doing instead.

Same here. Though it hasn’t been enjoyable to use since like 2018.

I nuked my history but the account is still active. I’ll probably delete it soon. May 2012 inception date. I’m surprised how easy it has been to stop using it after all this time. Admittedly, I haven’t used Lemmy nearly as much as I would reddit, but that is a good thing for me.
