  • Refugee Redditors as they make the move.

    Jump

  • Me, who's already been here for a few weeks, trying to just load a post or make a comment right now with the influx of traffic:

  • What made you pick the Lemmy server you are on?

    Jump

  • Wanted to be on a reasonably big instance, since I figure they're more likely to stick around in the long run. Lemmy.ml was closed for registration at the time (might still be, idk), and plus I have some disagreements with the admins, so I chose lemmy.world. I'm pretty happy here and don't see a reason to change personally, although the server's getting pretty overloaded recently so we'll see.

  • Do you prefer x264 or 265 HEVC?

    Jump

  • H.265 tends to struggle with older, film grain heavy content in my experience, but for newer stuff it wins hands down.

  • Red Hat’s commitment to open source: A response to the git.centos.org changes

    Jump

  • More recently, we have determined that there isn’t value in having a downstream rebuilder.

    Alright, well, there it is in plain English. They're killing downstream clones like Rocky, Alma, etc.

    I have to wonder how this is going to affect software which officially only supports (insert RHEL clone here). I use DaVinci Resolve for work every day, historically they've only supported CentOS, and just recently they started supporting Rocky as well. VFX isn't my wheelhouse, but I know the situation is basically the same for those programs as well.

  • Reddit Goes Nuclear, Removes Moderators of Subreddits That Continue to Protest

    Jump

  • It doesn't matter how hard Reddit tries to break up the protest, if they don't reverse course on this, the site will implode on July 1st when the API changes happen and mods of large subreddits no longer can use the tools they need to do their jobs. Reddit's trying to claim they have new mod tools in the works, but I'm sure they're full of shit.

    Everyone at that company is an absolute idiot for not listening to the moderators they're actively antagonizing right now, and it's going to blow up in their faces.

    Every time.

  • Consider not deleting your comments when you migrate

    Jump

  • You're not the first person I've seen make this argument, and it's definitely a difficult situation.

    End of the day though, this line of argument essentially allows Reddit to hold us hostage. While it is unfortunate that this will be in some ways harmful to the internet as a whole, it's ultimately our content, and we have the right to remove it if we wish.

    That said, I do think that, if anyone has a history of being particularly helpful on Reddit, they should consider backing up their comments, and possibly reposting the relevant information to a blog or something similar, or maybe even here on Lemmy.

  • (Discussion) Would you pay for Reddit Premium IF it allowed you to continue using your favorite app?

    Jump

  • No. Even if they decided to do something to placate us today, they've shown their hand and demonstrated they don't give a shit about their userbase. I have no plans of going back. Period.

  • POV you report transphobia over on exploding-heads.com (TW: bigotry)

    Jump

  • I, unfortunately, did read all of it, and I think it took a year or two off my life, sadly.

  • Mates, today without warning, the reddit royal navy attacked. I've been demoded by the admins.

    Jump

  • Bonus points if they're Nintendo games!

  • alright who's gonna tell them

    Jump

  • It's so bizarre to me how, in the wake of Reddit killing 3rd party apps, some people are running to Discord, which is infamously, actively hostile towards 3rd party apps, to the point of banning people for using them.

  • Elon Musk Says Twitter Is Going To Get Rid Of The Block Feature, Enabling Greater Harassment

    Jump

  • ...what the fuck???

  • replacement for r/trackers

    Jump

  • I think for now its best to not splinter off too many closely related subcommunities, it'll give the communities we do have on here a better chance of growing.

  • Meta will be releasing a Twitter clone/competitor this summer. Will you join?

    Jump

  • No.

    Easiest question of my life.

  • Locked

    BREAKING: REDDIT IS DOWN

    Jump

  • I mean yes, you can get third party apps on the Play Store (I got mine off F-Droid but that's besides the point), but for most people, if they want to install "Reddit" on their phone, they're gonna search for "Reddit," and then when the first thing that pops up is the official app, they'll install that, and never think twice about it.
