I thought it was about waterboarding

SAME! Also recommend Alton Brown

And I assume the image is an unrelated demonstrating a rescue operation

They got pulverized

Apparently there’s been a “compress the rich” hashtag going around.

Though That 19 year old didn’t want any part in this, was scared of the whole thing, and only went to appease his father

Yep, I try to upvote everything and comment as much as I can. I’m still confused about how to post to specific instances on Jerboa though. Like I’m typing the name but it’s not showing up in the dropdown

The most discouraging thing that happened was that when I wrote a long and thoughtdul comment and press send, Jerboa gives me the “java type blabla” error, and I lost everything I typed. Then I don’t wanna type it again and I just give up on commenting

Hopefully these issues will be fixed soon! As I understand it it’s not even an issue with Jerboa specifically.

I’m also new to this and I’m confused about something. On jerboa, when I click a link like the one you just posted, how can I subscribe to it? It seems to open it in-browser but within jerboa but there’s no subscribe button or anything

Damn, I don’t have Reddit anymore so I can’t vote or even see the upvote numbers on the comments. Can anyone give me the rundown? This is hilarious

I’ve never heard of that. Where did that rumor come from?

You mean the big expansion pack they released a while back? It was incredible, the devs just dropped it one day out of the blue, all for free, nobody had asked for it but everyone was amazed by it.

Been replaying Into The Breach. One of the best turn based tactic games there is out there.

Holy shit

Agreed!

And this means we’re not giving them clicks or anything? It’s basically as if we’ve never visited in the first place?

I get that “no ads no tracking”, but does the proxy give them a view? I don’t want them to get any traffic from me, proxy or otherwise.

Thanks for sharing

I’ve been wanting to boycott Reddit for a long time, and the list of problems I had with it was very long. It took this API issue to finally get some community action.

But in short, Reddit is moving away from genuine community, and more towards fake astroturfed corporate content with manipulated comments and unabashed bot activity.

Bots

I have nothing against it OP for sharing this, but the headline of this article by PCgamer is super clickbaity, witholding the key info until you give them a click. There was a subreddit called “saved you a click” that was basically taking clickbait headlines and putting the “prize info” in the post title. I wonder if there will be a Lemmy equivalent.

Is this internet feudalism?

I uninstalled reddit. It’s the only way to kick it off

If you can’t be monetized, you’re just noise. They don’t see their community as people, they see them as data to be harvested and eyes to be advertised to.

r/Canada was taken over by alt-right a long time ago. r/OnGuardForThee had to be made in response to that. I feel like Reddit in general is going that direction. The sheer volume of bot activity on most major subreddits is insane.
