Yup. That’s a native Reddit feature so it is part of the implementation of a lot of apps. In wefwef’s case I’m not sure how they developed it because I don’t think that’sa native feature of Lemmy

That’s been worked on according to the GitHub issues and is going to be added to wefwef even though it’s not a native Lemmy function.

Break up the Weston vertical monopoly and watch how fast the rest starts evening out.

I was curious so I went and looked. Wow.

They’re inconvenienced so it should all end and we should all give up.

Really hope they’re never part of any union I’m a part of.

Whoops! Fixed

Here is a good matrix of which media server app supports what.

That being said, I’d still recommend Plex for anything more than just a project.

I set up wireguard vpn and took down all my reverse proxies as it feels more secure and is easier to maintain.

From what I’ve heard tailscale is a step easier as well. So you could vpn into your network rather than accessing the services via URL.

I checked up on the thread on Reddit because I was curious. Apparently he’s part of the log jam keeping the youth who looked good on the team this year from making the squad.

He was a slow, heavy skater who just had his Achilles sliced, so it’s likely he’ll lose a step there too.

This is looking like a contract dump.

Hot sauce on peanut butter on toast.

Don’t knock it until you try it.

I feel like Reddit has been teetering for a while.

It’s been a great move. I have been back to Reddit a couple times since and the anger is striking after being here for a bit.

Definitely. A lot of Reddit mods, or the “landed gentry”, are mods because they likely made the sun because they had a niche interest they were carving out a forum for.

In the same groups a found a lot of the mods were people who participated in the community a lot. And then the others that participated were the first to get added to the mod list.

Most of the time on most of the subreddits that aren’t defaults and don’t regularly hit the front page the mods are just users who love that particular subject, idea, whatever.

This is the result of the NHL being an old boys’ club and always afraid to go against the grain.

They can’t stand for anything and they can’t speak out or have true leaders because anybody that does is blackballed or told to pipe down.

I really hope we see the youth take the game from their old wrinkly hands one of these days.

I didn’t own it, but my dad’s friend had it on a computer in the back of his shop. I spent hours back there when he was visiting his friend.

Because the controversy is drumming up news. He’s the face of that and it’s all for the IPO.

No publicity is bad publicity and all that, but he’s also getting ahead of all the other news so that anyone possible investors might be interested.

None of this is for us anymore. Not us the former users, the current users or us “regular people”. He and his handlers are trying to drum up publicity for big money.

This is a feature people have been asking for since the beginning and is only being talked about or introduced because it’s politically convenient for the admins.

I really hope this backfires and is only a means to an end of the users replacing scabs until the site grinds to a halt.

You’re the prize. They have a position to fill and you’re going in to see if you fit it.

The interview is every bit for you as it is for them. But don’t forget that, ultimately, they need someone and you can be that someone. You hold the power position.

That being said, dress well, be professional, present yourself well. Always put your best foot forward.

We can only do what we can do.

I think of the 90-9-1 rule. If 10% of users leave or spend less time, there’s less content. Less content means the 90% will go elsewhere.

With something as big as Reddit it was never going to be easy, it was never going to be quick. But this will hurt them.

Don’t think about it as a war lost, think of it as a battle lost, but serious damage done.

Also don’t go back, that’s exactly what they’re betting on.

Highly unlikely they’d ever be able to rebuild that bridge but it would start with turning back the API decision. Then hiring Christian from Apollo to help them with building a better app. A significant amount of the leadership stepping down and leaving. Mods getting paid. Transitioning to a platform not reliant on ads. Getting Victoria of AMA fame back. Having mods be an elected position.

If all that happened maybe I’d think they turned into something worth coming back to.
