I’m one of the mods there haha

Yeah, you’re right. I didn’t think that through properly.

Good. Non-replaceable batteries benefit no one but device manufacturers and miners of lithium, cobalt, etc.

No surprises there. I’m glad to be gone.

It would be great to be able to just swipe away posts, whether voted on or not.

That seems to depend on the community or instance. I can see them on some, but not others.

If they’d put her in a morgue’s freezer she would have just died without anyone knowing. It’s disturbing.

At least they didn’t bury her before she started knocking.

It can’t be bought or sold because it doesn’t belong to anyone. That’s one of the benefits of it being open source.

And anyone can set up their own instance, so there’s no way to force a change at that end either. That’s one of the benefits of it being decentralized.

Any unwanted changes would just result in a fork, and instances would use that instead. The way it’s designed stops it being taken over by corporate interests.

Thanks for this. It would be cool if it was available for FF on mobile. I suppose it will stop working for Reddit after the API changes.

If my programming was a bit better I’d make an extension that redirects to the most recent archive.org capture. That would keep working after the API changes and keep me from actually visiting Reddit. Maybe I should learn how.

I love that you commented this on a post in the trees community

There’s actually a Lemmy app on called Lemmur. I downloaded it but it doesn’t seem to be working at the moment.

I just learnt about browse.feddit.de from your comment. Thank you.

Reddit could have charged the actual lost revenue plus a reasonable mark up. Then the 3rd party apps could have survived on a paid subscription basis, and Reddit would’ve made more off those users than if they’d moved to the official app.

Now a bunch of them, like us, are jumping ship instead. It was a dumb business decision. And this kind of stubborn disregard for their users is the kind of thing that destroys companies.

I’m on lemmy.nz, for the kiwi whānau
