Figures. It did sound a little too good to be true.
I’m actually excited about Threads because it supposedly uses ActivityPub. I know all my non-techie friends are going to use it and I should be able to participate from my self-hosted Mastodon instance.
My elderly parents are responsible for some FAST views thinking that they were watching something from my library.
Can I ask who your VPS provider is?
I see where you’re coming from but I think who you wrote the comments for doesn’t change their value to society. Deleting Reddit comments to make a point feels a bit like burning books to me.
Looks like [email protected] is the only one. By the way, you can use browse.feddit.de to search for Lemmy communities.
For me personally, the value of the comments remaining for people like you and me to have access to is greater than the value of potentially harming Reddit as a company.
I'm not supporting Reddit or their actions at all but these days I feel like the oligarchs always win so why hurt the little guy.
Agreed. I've still been checking Apollo everyday out of habit. Once July 1st hits, Apollo is getting deleted off my phone and then I don't really see myself using Reddit much.
I would rather leave useful information where it is for anyone who needs it to find later. A lot of Reddit is on Archive.org and, like you said, their servers so I don’t really get what this accomplishes.
I want to transition off of Reddit but I'm not deleting my account because I feel like there's too much valuable information on the site to get rid of it all just yet.
