Dude something very weird is going on on Reddit. I’ve been through it with them for 12 years and this is like nothing I’ve ever seen.
I finally deleted the terrible Reddit app when my feed was blasted with repeated comments that “Reddit is far left and the left are domestic terrorists.” Sorry what?
These very weird not based in reality comments are posted almost verbatim in every thread. These people usually never respond to conversation.
It’s very very weird
I think your prediction is probably spot on. Reddit already feels like incel 9gag with a bunch of Russians pretending to be American college students.
Edit: oh if that’s your optimistic take then oh wow haha I am staying here on Lemmy I’ll start posting too
You cannot wish for anything to die on .world, especially if it is a person or a corporate-person. The “centrist” .world mods look down on anything that makes capitalism or republicans look bad.
The instance operators are just trying not to get legally accountable for it? Call for murder is prosecutable in many countries. Also in the Netherlands where that instance is located.
Just the fear of that alone was enough to cause dmv.social to shut down, back during the waves of CSAM attacks, before the automated software was implemented to filter it out.
Does that… matter to you? Okay then, yeah in the narrow sense, you very likely are - I don’t know of any such cases occurring within the past few years.
When I was on Reddit I started to become obsessed with winning arguments with people on the internet - many of whom were literal teenagers. So I decided to leave it behind, regardless of whether I could find somewhere else to go. It doesn’t lead to satisfaction or fulfillment, I found.:-(
Wouldn’t you rather enjoy a conversation here? Well, it’s your choice, I just thought I’d share a bit of my own story in case it might help you with yours.
This is 100% accurate. I’d rather people say what they feel they need to say, regardless of my personal opinion. But we’d rather be cautious and remove the more blatant advocations of violence if it means we get to keep the lights on.
I hope Reddit dies! Free Luigi!
oh, it won’t… it’ll turn into a weird cross between thedonald and 9gag in a few months. mark my words.
thedonaldgag?
oh jeez… someone please grab that domain before they get any ideas…
i know this may sound counterintuitive, but just look at they way they changed their minds about electric cars.
Gagdonald?

There’s

Be careful, .world mods are likely to bad you for calling for action
But that’s not a call to action. Or is that the joke? Lol
You cannot wish for anything to die on .world, especially if it is a person or a corporate-person. The “centrist” .world mods look down on anything that makes capitalism or republicans look bad.
Wait, but which .world mods? I’m technically also one of those and I don’t think that way. lol
Mostly news, world, and politics. In that order. But, it has been a lot better since the FlyingAsshat got his pink slip.
Ohh I can see that with World News mods. Yep, can attest some of them are dipshits. That’s why I have them blocked and their sub too.
The instance operators are just trying not to get legally accountable for it? Call for murder is prosecutable in many countries. Also in the Netherlands where that instance is located.

So what you’re saying is I’m right.
