You think reddit, who is about to go public, is going to allow subreddits like that to even exist anymore?

True story. I started two gaming related subreddits 12 years ago. Combined, the have about 170,000 subscribers. They are still thriving communities and I have 0 say in either of those subreddits. I picked a mod for each subreddit and let them run with it. One of those subreddits went dark, the other did not. Again, I didn’t interfere.

People sometimes need something in their lives to give it meaning, and as weird as it is, modding these communities provides that.

Moved to Porkbun yesterday. No fuss, quick setup and pricing is good.

Just a note. Most libredditbinstancea will be shutting down as well. It’s being modified to allow for you to add your own API key, but many large instances aren’t going to be afford to continue running with the API changes.

I know I’m just delaying the inevitable, but I patched it for now.

Side by side comparison with RIF.

It amazes me how horrible it’s become through official channels. I don’t understand how someone can use that app and be fine with it.

Of the headline or the image? Threads is federated, apparently. But I’m sure it will be severely crippled.

It’s true. https://help.instagram.com/169559812696339

I couldn’t run Linux on my PC due too lack of hardware support at the time, but FreeBSD had support, so I ran that for a couple of years until Linux caught up.

At that time, there wasn’t much choice when it came to distros. These days, it’s a little bit of everything. Arch on my daily driver, RHEL on my ERP and DB servers, Ubuntu server on my Dev server, and I’m planning on deploying NixOS across the 700 PCs at our different locations.
