I never really did this on the bad place but if you browse new and fire off something snarky or heartfelt first it often becomes the top comment in my experience
Did the pupper box themselves? I’ve never seen a dog do that
Lemmy really needs filter words for times like these.
I’d also like to argue that they can’t talk about Reddit itself over there any more because of the pervasive manipulation and censorship so we should make space for that conversation over here.
I think you are right about the normal users but I think they alienated a big percentage of top mods. I think the consequences of that are just starting to manifest.
Idk, I think it was the deal breaker for me on kbin because I do not like it at all. They may have fixed it by now
I’m not 100% sure but I remember when I tried kbin an upvote was like a “boost” on Mastodon, and every one showed up on your profile feed
I think maybe this user is on kbin?
I prefer my porn to be 100% industry-exploited humans
Honest question, why isn’t your clubhouse over at lemmygrad enough?
Damn they really hate their users
So basically Reddit sucks at ads too 😂
Do you know something we don’t know? Are they secretly courting a private buyer instead of actually going for an IPO?
Not an advertiser but they generally know % of views (“impressions”) to clicks (called click through rate) and percentage of clicks that turn into sales (called conversion rate).
For that reason, I don’t think they’re trying to get rid of human users completely, just the “troublemakers”.
I think they want to lead the “silent majority” users into a bot advertorial content hellscape where they control all the levers of power and everything is for sale.
Also, infinite layers of meta commentary and criticism of the meta and criticism of that criticism… I’m home
Never underestimate the power of shitposting
I don’t agree with this in all cases.
True, parents usually have a deeply ingrained emotional need to protect and nurture their children but:
For those still thinking I have no idea what I am talking about and you and your parents are different… please look into “enmeshment” for your own sake
If we comment enough, we could get this zombie thread stuck in the ‘Active’ feed
I, for one, welcome our new toilet-watching overlords
