I’ve played around with it for personal amusement, but the output is straight up garbage for my purposes. I’d never use it for work. Anyone entering proprietary company information into it should get a verbal shakedown by their company’s information security officer, because anything you input automatically joins their training database, and you’re exposing your company to liability when, not if, OpenAI suffers another data breach.
💯 this. Pocketcasts is and has been outstanding for the years I’ve had it. Great UI, and will remember your position on a specific episode cross-platform.
Came here to post this, Mint just got purchased by T-Mobile.
It’s not the rules on those servers, but the rules on the server you belong to, i.e lemmy.world. Looking at their main site, their rule 3 is as follows:
Everyone who cares about their instance and the fediverse as a whole needs to defederate and block their instances as soon as they pop up.
The latter exactly. Because Spez and Reddit as a whole have refused to take action on them for literal years, they built up a critical mass, and were able to both plan a migration and do so successfully.
Oh interesting, it’s not showing as a link for me. I’ve edited. Thanks for the heads up!
Because it, as a massive problem instance for the alt-right to congregate, was allowed to build up and do whatever it wanted unfettered, once they did action it it was far too late. They immediately moved offsite to thedonald(dot)win (which was r/thedonald 1:1), and continued their actions there. It allowed them to conglomerate, coordinate, and show each other that there was enough of them to try and pull off heinous shit.
Jan 6th literally was planned and executed on thedonald, which only got to the critical mass it did because reddit refused to handle it.
It’s possible your space isn’t federated with those communities yet? You might need to start the link with searching for them using the !instance@web.site command to force your instance to download their pages first.
Yes. Many of them. I use Baconreader which predates the official Reddit App by like four years.
Does he have a disease that forces him to lie at every opportunity?
Oh neat! Yeah I agree.
When my Pixel 4a was on its way out, I was seriously tempted to get a Galaxy Flip4 because there’s someone who made a case turning it into a tricorder.
I’ve always been enamored with flip phones because they’re the closest thing we have to a Star Trek communicator, but the current gen of foldable screens are a nightmare.
That couldn’t be further from the truth.
Considering you used “woke” as a pejorative earlier and now you’re ranting about conspiracies involving Paramount (why would Paramount sanction a move to the fediverse where they can’t show ads?) and supporting a sub that was about supporting anti-mask/anti-vaxx nonsense during the beginning of a global pandemic that’s killed ~7 million people since 2020, I really am not even interested in furthering this discussion with you. LLAP 🖖
You could always criticize them, you just couldn’t be lazy about your criticism.
I’ve many times talked about the inconsistency in character development, the trend to “give backstory and then kill a character,” and the absolutely nauseating camera movement (especially in the early seasons) of Discovery, for example. Never even got a warning, nor my posts removed.
There was a major thread like a year back talking about how in Disco, the actors don’t actually move about a scene when they do things. The movement is from room to room, and then they are stuck in place as they talk and it really throws you out of it.
Edit: In fact, there’s literally a post critiquing season 4 of Discovery right now on their front page with healthy discussion in the comments.
All of these were allowed before and still.
The 90-9-1 rule of internet communities applies though. If you’re unfamiliar:
90% of people lurk, 9% interact, and 1% create content. Reddit has an additional 0.1% snuck in there of people who moderate.
If you’re in that smaller echelon of users who interact or submit/create content, you’re more than likely a user who these api changes affect. So the 90% doesn’t really matter in the long run if you have no content, and the content that does come in is poorly moderated or not modded at all.
This kills the reddit.
Try this, I’m still learning how to link other communities.
Since it’s based around a show, Trek as a whole is in a show lull until Thursday. The folks who normally run the weekly content posts have already migrated over. There has been half a dozen attempts at replacing r/startrek with versions of it not run by that mod team and all have failed to gain traction, so good luck to anyone trying to do that. They run a tight ship and make it one of the more enjoyable subs on the site.
Trekkies have existed in groups in one form or another since Usenet and BBS. Moving to a new technology is nothing new to us.
That being said, 250 users in 1 day (they didnt get it set up and actually open until last night) is nothing to scoff at.
Edit: As of now (2am ET on Wednesday) they’re at 800+ subscribers to the mainsub. That’s-- not bad at all.
It should be regulated.
