How many of these posts about reddit have to keep popping up before the mods start cracking down and making this community about technology, not love/hate letter spam about the reddit incident. It’s gotten old.

Use one of the MULTIPLE communities about reddit for these posts. This isn’t even about technology, this is someone using this as their own personal microblog thinking other people care that they’ve moved on.

This product was also sold, not deleted. So to be a bit pedantic, it doesn’t belong there. People are acting like this has died entirely or they aren’t able to transfer their domains. It’s not the end of the world.

But I guess people can feel good posting “Don’t be evil I guess” over and over again (as has been posted in all the threads about this numerous times) or being all snooty about how they’ve “warned people forever” not to use any Google service ever.

Its free

If you aren’t paying for the product, you are the product.

I think at this point even tech bros hate people that try to insert the blockchain and cryptowhatever into everything.

I had to reinstall my local instance, and wasn’t able to import my old database. That meant I had to go re-subscribe to everything and even worse, nothing on my account will actually federate. Comments I make on the “main” admin account won’t federate anywhere, because the instances see that “old” user with the same name, but exchange is different.

So I had to create this second account, and use this to comment on things with. It’s a pain, but hopefully it gets better. Even if it’s just being able to export my subscriptions so I don’t have to try to find them all again.

What did Nova do to sell out? This is the first I’ve heard that

That will die down. There has been a massive influx due to what’s going on with reddit.

Don’t Fuck With Paste

You don’t need an addon for this one. Search about:config for dom.event.clipboardevents.enabled and double click on the key (set it to false). It should take care of that for you.

Edit: Typo

NFC might soon take the ‘tap’ out of tap-to-pay.

I can’t think of anything worse. I don’t want to walk past a payment kiosk and accidentally pay for who knows what.

I just wish there was an easy way to sync my progress from my kindle. Does Kobo (or similarly easy to find reader) offer syncing to BookWyrm by chance? Any suggestions that aren’t too expensive are appreciated.
