The last few releases of Jerboa have been atrocious. It’s currently crashing when backing out of activities, voting, or commenting. I tried Thunder but the UI is extremely confusing for me.

You’re right about advertising, but they also are a legal target. Any platform that has sex related content on it will eventually feel pressure from their country’s government. It just takes one incident and

I reckon platforms see them as a burden due to the volume of regulation that they inevitably become saddled with, or face penalties. Hence why tumblr rolled the dice on removing it all, Reddit is restricting ease of access, and Pornhub purged most of its content.

I’m interested to see how the Fediverse will handle it when it eventually comes this way.

It’s been a huge pain because no single platform can’t be a drop in replacement for Reddit.

Another Podcast Addict user here. But I don’t think they pay the Podcasters anything if that’s your concern. If you’re listening to Joe Rogan, don’t pay him a penny. Pirate the shit out of his podcasts. But maybe you should consider giving to Patreon if you don’t already. They take a cut but at least you know its going to the podcaster.

Also you really should know that Tidal isn’t paying anyone any better, no platform is. They’re all beholden to rights holders, and that is mostly record labels and their parent companies. No platform pays per stream, that’s a myth. Spotify just distributes all the money left after their 30%. Blame the labels for making audio so unprofitable and for the average listener for treating music and podcasts as disposable,

Before you think I’m defending spotify, I’m not. They tried to make an unprofitable product profitable and they did it by selling out to record labels. Spotify could have made them irrelevant but chose not to.

It’s the first meta joke this place has had. Someone asked how not to shit for 3 days and for some reason it made its way around the site.

Seems like we’re all still redditors at heart after all lmao

Great fight. Credit to Cejudo, Chito isn’t an easy fight.

FF VIII was a great story but the very exploitable leveling system kinda makes it kinda boring to play sometimes, Triple triad makes up for it, though!

Twitter and Reddit have really thrown the idea that the “elite” are somehow smarter or more competent into disrepute. They are literally just ideologues.

That’s a feature I didn’t know about. Will definitely keep an eye on that

I’m not sure it was, unless you actively sought it out.

Lots of communities were nice and pleasant, with little to no animosity. The politics subs invite debate and discussion, so naturally argumentative people gravitate there. But most of Reddit was fun

Online discussions can be toxic anywhere. You don’t have to take part in a community and don’t have to be dragged into dramw. There’s always somewhere more welcoming.
