I mean let’s be real: Anyone with a fraction of self-respect would walk away from this dumpster fire after being repeatedly called noise by the idiots running the website.
But on the other hand I have to admit that Spez was completely right. This did blow over rather nicely for Reddit, since any publicity is good publicity and it seems like most of it is business as usual minus actually good apps.
Oh boy, some 14-year old finally got his first power-trip boner! Congratulations to him for bending over.
I hope the rest of you guys step back and let him enjoy the joys of modding alone or with other incompetent shills.
I used the power delete suite to leave a nice explanation of Lemmy and ways how to migrate as well as a last happy fuck u/Spez on my main account.
My NSFW account has an even more elegant solution: Each and every post or link was edited to a highlight reel of the 2 girls 1 cup video, with no warning whatsoever.
Both accounts have been abandoned in this state, good luck restoring the OG content.
But just you then just buy a worthless piece of plastic nowadays, because the license key was already added to Steam, GoG or whatever?
I honestly don’t get the obsession with physical media. That’s a thing of the past, my PC doesn’t even have a drive anymore.
The only benefit I see is a reduced download size, but with day one patches sometimes being 40+ GB that’s also not always the case.
It’s not like you own the game, just because you have a physical copy of it. Once the licensing servers are shut down that disk becomes a paper weight, and that is if it doesn’t require a constant connection to begin with.
On the other side you could argue that it’s better for the environment if we finally get rid of all disks. Is it a huge impact compared to everything else? Probably not, but it is a step in the right direction.
It means that you are a bot. For example like Reddit’s automod or all the Star Wars or Lord of the Rings quote bots or also unit converter bots.
And it seems like the first people are already trying to misuse the label.
I see what you mean, but there’s also a large number of lurkers, who will only vote but never comment.
I don’t think it’s unfeasible to have a small number of comments on a highly upvoted post.
