Ya, you know I haven’t opened reddit since the blackout started. I removed “slide” from my phones home screen.

It’s kinda sad, but I’m rediscovering RSS, now I’ve found kbin, and Im fine. I think not mindlessly scrolling reddit after my main interests have been covered has been nice for my brain.

This is exciting. I don’t need millions of people, just enough to not be a ghost town.

Terminal is even more impressive if used in full screen

I feel the same and am wondering what I can post. I’ve been lurking for so long the thought of submitting anything isn’t even in my mind. Good to switch gears and shake things up, start seeing the world a little different like what can I share, not just what can I consume.

The compliance of r/formula1 is amazing, and so well written I was nodding my head agreeing with the points about the danger of the sport- I wonder now if they were to go back to nsfw if there would be reddit policy changes needed or how they would handle “undo”-ing the reasons for going nsfw.

Reminds me of the dead internet theory. What if all that’s left on Reddit is bots posting? New content could be asking AI to generate a “cute puppy picture” and post in on r/aww, and that could all be done by a bot.

I’m not quite having conversations, but I’m posting comments on the internet for the first time in years.

I’ve been really impressed with the kbin PWA. I thought the experience would suck, but I’ve been adapting just fine. I used Slide on Android.

I hate feeling like I’m just a number to every business, person, or company. Every transaction feels like they just have to do the absolute bare minimum, and if they don’t even accomplish that, it doesn’t matter because I’m just a number.

This is great watching the drama from my new “home” here on kbin. I’m so happy that you all are here too, giving me tons to read.
