Apple Music has become my main ‘first stop’ after Spotify’s latest UX overhaul. I’ve also started buying physical CDs again because I’ve realized the importance of physical copies. Never got into vinyl but I think the CD boom is still to come, ha.

I was having similar experiences this week but with niche 90s music history. It scared me to think that Reddit has so much control over that data. Makes me wonder if it’s possible/feasible for a single person to download a few subreddits as a precautionary archive…

Also, I don’t think an upvote will be ‘saved’ anywhere for you to reference later? So if you do want to circle back on the content, I guess ‘boost’ is the way to go. I haven’t figured out how to ‘un-boost’ something though

100% agreed. as someone that has been meaning to jump into the fediverse since the Twitter debacle, I was paralyzed by having to choose an initial Mastadon server. If you want lemmy/kbin to grow, just link them directly to the best matched instance you can find for them.

He ends the video with this, which I thought summarized his thoughts well:

" ‘No hit to revenue.’ (quoting Hoffman) Your 2 day blackout did nothing. But that doesn’t mean that it has to be in vain. Because you can convert that blackout into an indefinite one, at the blink of an eye. That’s what I’m doing. And that’s what I hope all of you do as well. I want you to teach Steve Hoffman a lesson. I want you to teach him a lesson that his website is not valuable because of the domain name, the servers, the API, or the brand. It’s valuable because of you."

Yes this is a good callout. Kbin/Lemmy need to get better about cross searching various instances. Build in the https://lemmyverse.net/ functionality without having to browse to another site.

Well said, this was all something I didn’t really understand before reddit did what it did. It’s all crystal clear now though!
