Members of the Reddit community r/horny are posting photos of goats and cats following blackout protests over the site's looming API charges.

Why? Well, remember the power-tripping mods? Remember the admins falsely suspending accounts for ridiculous reasons? See? They are both our enemies. Always has been our enemy.

Ya know what? I’m really enjoying Lemmy. The Fediverse is (at present) smaller than Reddit but feels welcoming and at the same time much more “exclusive” (?). It’s just that you have to make the effort to join the Fediverse… …and I’m not going back. I’m getting as much out of Lemmy as I was getting from RIF but...

Following in the footsteps of r/pics and r/gifs, r/aww is also holding a poll to decide whether to go back to "normal" or to only feature images of John Oliver, Chiijohn, or their lookalikes being adorable....

“If a moderator team unanimously decides to stop moderating, we will invite new, active moderators to keep these spaces open and accessible to users. If there is no consensus, but at least one mod who wants to keep the community going, we will respect their decisions and remove those who no longer want to moderate from the mod...

I was actually somewhat ok with going back to certain Reddit communities (although NOT just mindless scrolling) after the blackout. There’s a lot of communities where (I thought) there’s literally no alternatives....

A lot of people don’t know this, but you can subscribe to subreddits using RSS by simply adding .rss at the end of the URL, e.g: reddit.com/r/socialism.rss and then you can add the feed to your favorite RSS reader. For example, there’s a great add on for Firefox and an Android app....
