This won’t make Spez any more uncomfortable when he wants to sleep at night. According to him, that subreddit was “valuable discussion”.
Just said on a Reddit r/worldnews’ thread that the subreddit has been astroturfed for years, as a response to someone wondering how could people in the comments be wishing for more innocent Palestinians be killed, and surprise surprise, I got instabanned. The site is becoming a façade of a fake reality in far more ways than one.
The list of names at the left creeps me the fuck out.
The only possible benefit to this kind of behavior is creating the impression that there’s more traffic on Reddit than there really is, from which only Reddit benefits.
What I got from this is that you’re the bottom in this relationship.
This is the kind of thing that is currently an object of mockery, becomes “kinky” and “bold” in 25 years, and ultimately has two or three slang entries in urbandictionary in 50.
Didn’t follow r/anime_titties, but there’s definitely userbase that would be interested in a channel dedicated to the discussion of various global political topics. I don’t have the energy to moderate what that could become, though.
There’s a reason why quite a few instances have blocked hexbear.
Except when users complain that a channel called “Politics” at lemmy.world shouldn’t be exclusive to US politics. Then it’s American exceptionalism all the way down, baby.
Supposedly you can cash these golds out if you get 10 of them, at a rate of $1 per gold, as long as you live in the US. I figure that the left-most gild is equivalent to 1 gold, so Reddit is keeping roughly 70% of the money you pay through this system.
You’re probably using old Reddit, aren’t you? The difference between old Reddit and new Reddit and the Reddit app are night and day in terms of spam.
Politics? That’s a 'murican tradition. That’s why r/politics only allows to discuss 'Murica, because there are no politics anywhere else. What? Did c/politics say something?
I’m sure all this nonsense waste of energy is exactly what we needed just to stop climate change.
