  • That's not a bug, it's a feature.

    Just Tod Howard streamlining your RPG experience so that he can say "it just works".

  • I have a personal one year embargo on starfield for this exact reason.

    Not touching it t until a year after release, waiting to see if it's fucked or not... Bethesda, eh.

  • Not really, two more countries just joined NATO, it would be perfectly normal that along with that comes the opening of additional military bases like the ones in Germany, UK, etc.

    These are likely to be the troops that will be stationed there.

  • Mod Response & Survey Meta Discussion (Mod Approved)

  • I'm entirely against changing the name because I think that the whole conversation about why is fucking asanine.

    But...

    If we do change it, can we change it to "Politically Correct Master Race" for a laugh? The acronym would still work... :)

  • Well now that doesn't look guilty at all.

  • Redditors - A new reddit client has arrived!

    Jump

  • Cool, thanks for explaining.

    I doubt they'd be bothered too much by impacting the first part though, they've shown to be entirely willing to lose userbase in order to force their app, so retention probably doesn't interest them there if people start using the RSS feed as a 3rd party app.

    I think the crux of it would come more down to whether or not they want to deal with the potential SEO hit that could come from getting rid of it.

    Should be interesting to watch how they handle it, at any rate.

    On a personal note, I'm pretty much done with Reddit after how they've acted recently, but watching them running around in the road, trying to play with the busses is genuinely fascinating.

  • This place has become a ghost town

  • Wrong, fuck this guy: :)

  • Interesting, what does Reddit even use an RSS feed for? I'm trying to figure out why they'd even have that still going today and coming up empty.

  • I got banned from the Reddit sub for asking about union related materials for distribution.

    Jump

  • Clearly an unjustified ban. :p

  • That's cool and everything, but if it's scraping the site they'll block that shit straight away, they've already said as much and scraper blocking is relatively easy to do these days.

    Good luck though.

  • Why are Mastodon's trending hashtags so ... dull?

    Jump

  • I can imagine some alpha-cunt Tate-esque grifter selling courses on how to "Just Shout at People" like it's some sort of magic spell that mysteriously makes everything that you want happen.

    Selling it like it's the hidden secret sauce to the universe or whatever, rather than just being a dick to everyone.

    Would the community even be any worse, I wonder? :)

  • Pretty much. Made perfect sense in my head at the time.

    I totally see how it would be ambiguous now though.

  • Ironic.

  • The influx of Redditors has had a detrimental effect on Lemmy.

    Jump

  • If you want to stop more people coming, just go and tell people on Reddit to come here.

    The trick though is that when you do, give them url's for both Lemmy and Kbin. From what I saw, doing that somehow made understanding this place so difficult that 95% of people would just start shouting abuse at whoever did it and refuse to ever entertain the idea of switching. :p

  • I came over in the reddit migration.

    I have to admit, the thought definitely occurred to me when I first joined and had a look around, that the people that were already here before would be getting swarmed by masses of redditors that may well not have the same "site-culture" as the people who were here first. I'm actually surprised that this is the first post that I've seen complaining about it.

    I mean it, I was legitimately expecting a ton of pushback from the existing fedi community over this, and was really surprised when it never seemed to materialize.

    For my own experiences of being here (I'm on kbin), this place has been really good-natured, with a better level of well intentioned discussion than what a lot of reddit had, so it's been a really nice experience so far. What I don't have though, is any experience of what it was like before we all invaded en-mass, so I have nothing to contrast it with. I can totally see how someone wouldn't be happy with what's happened though, the migration has to have changed the space a lot for everyone that was here before.

    One thing about my personal experience of how it is here though is that when I first joined I tried to do the thing that you first do with a reddit account, you know, where you immediately un-subscribe from all default subreddits and only join things you're actually interested in (so, niche subs, etc). Found out that it isn't quite how it works, but that the subscribed feed is pretty much exactly that but baked-in as standard. I've then spent almost my whole time on the subscribed feed since (unless actively looking for new stuff).

    So the quality that I've experienced here is probably more down to my personal selection of subscribed communities rather than a more holistic view of the platform as a whole. There's the caveat to everything I just said, I guess.

    So yeah, I'm kinda sorry that this happened to you, and I'd also prefer if those people (I'm referring to the bad-actors and arsehole's side of things) would have just stayed where they were too, but I'm not sure what to do about it other than just blocking/unsubscribing to the communities in question, or blocking the individual accounts of bad actors. I doubt that the second is even remotely scalable though if the userbase gets significantly larger.
