Setting up the stage for a OnlyFans lookalike for all those wild reddit females

Frankly that’s about the only plausible customer base I could see for that.

That’s not what they are going to advertise it as, lol.

Females? That’s so chauvinist. They prefer to be called M’ladys

Fuck Spez

Well, glad I jumped ship after the api fee fiasco. I never even used the mobile app, but the tone deaf/elonification, I was done. That’s right he got the great idea from Musk. How’s that IPO working out?

db2 ,

He doesn’t care. His goal is to extract money, period. He’s incredibly jealous of his former colleagues who cashed out for millions. He’s a greedy little pigboy.

Fuck reddit, I got banned from Worldnews for asking when Ukraine would attack other targets. I was banned for “call for violence” it was a post about the war. So stupid

Goodmorningsunshine ,

Pretty sure worldnews is modded by the same people as r/Zion. It’s so easy to get banned from there - just call a genocide a genocide

Crikeste ,

I got banned for suggesting a man who violently pushed a woman off a bike should be pushed himself. Lmao “advocating for violence”

Fuckin’ spineless idiots

This is a good thing for the Fediverse.

Some players in the ecosystem have not been transparent with their use of Reddit’s content, and in those instances, we block access to protect Reddit content and user privacy.

Aka “Fuck you, pay me”, at least Reddit is transparent that data is for sale and they think they own it.

Twitter made a great job with the paid blue check. It’s so much easier now to detect an idiot just by looking if they have a paid blue check. In Reddit it will be the same. If someone joins a paid sub, you can already say they are an idiot.

AlexanderESmith ,

The best way to detect an idiot is seeing them on Twitter at all

Why do you think these people are idiots? I believe Twitter promotes content posted by paid users. Last time I was on Twitter (about a year ago), they were planing to exclude regular users from the “smart” feed. Plus, people could write longer posts instead of threads. Unlike with reddit gold, I see real benefits for content creators.

ASDraptor ,

Personal experience. Every time I see an extremely stupid tweet, it comes from a blue check.

“Reddit CEO teases new ways to damage and eventually kill Reddit”

Zip2 ,

“Tease” doing a lot of heavy lifting there. It’s only a tease if it’s something people actually want.

It’s a tease for shareholders desperate for more and more elaborate ways to squeeze a few more cents per user

eran_morad ,

Cool, fuck off and die.

Kit ,

Who tf still uses Reddit? It’s all bots and power tripping mods nowadays. Lemmy is a million times better imo.

Exactly lol. I literally get banned from subs for no reason, and i once got banned for literally posting a meme in a meme sub, like wtf

I felt that way till the influx of redditors came to get their little dopamine kicks via the rate buttons and bickering on bs topics.

Nuke_the_whales ,

Reddit has become unusable. I had an account there for 7 years and no problem. I tried checking out Reddit again this year and I got permanently banned within a day. You can’t say anything there anymore cause you’ll inevitably piss off a power hungry mod who will ban you for nothing. There’s no longer discussion to be had there.

I made a comment on the Gladiator 2 trailer, asking why Danzel is playing Micrinus, who was North African but of Roman blood and born in Alegeria and raised in Africa as a provincial. And pointed out how it’s similar to that Cleopatra documentary inaccurately thinking that all people in Africa, even Egypt and North Africa were black. I pointed out Micrinus was Berber which were originally a more white race who mixed with Arab blood, so they were like a slightly darker skinned Romans, but not black.

I was banned for “racist commentary and bigotry”

Monomate ,

Sorry to disappoint you, but this kind of behavior is not exclusive to Reddit. Lemmy has its own share of power-trip mods in some communities. I thought (wrongly) that someone that took the effort of leaving Reddit and coming here would think differently than the average Reddit mod, but I guess the allure of demonizing anyone that disagrees with you is too irresistible for them.

pivot_root , (edited )

Whaaaa. You mean the volunteer scabs appointed by Reddit admins to replace the “power tripping mods” (pissed off Redditors, 2023) are even more power tripping? I’m shocked, I say! Shocked!

Asafum ,

That’s an interesting way of writing “Reddit CEO proves there’s no such thing as enough when you suffer from dragon syndrome.”

Look, Reddit search is already a shit show. Them overhauling it whatever way can’t possibly make it much worse anyway.

Paid subreddits though. I didn’t know we were already in April.
