I personnaly agree with you. If content is not supposed to be searchable, maybe don’t post it online. It is a different problem for writers, artists and possibly even journalists.

But I think it’s a fair debate - unfortuantely one that was one (or the only?) reason the whole reddit API debacle startetd.

On the other hand maybe Lemmy should allow certain communities allow an “only for members” view?

Nah. I’m good thanks. Maybe on a 90% sale.

But I’m not going to RE-buy what it should have been in the first place. And it’s not going to be.

I have not touched reddit since this debacle… I added a bunch of subreddits to my RSS reader, but I’m honestly not looking at it.

Unfortunately searching for information often brings me to a reddit post, but I’m trying to avoid it and so far found the information elsewhere.

evolution works ok, I just don’t like the look and feel. There’s a lot of customization possible … but it’s just not for me somehow. so far the thunderbird beta is quite nice.

This looks interesting as well. Going to check this :) Cheers @Fryboyter@discuss.tchncs.de !

If that wasn’t abstract enough … there was Ren & Stimpy.

uh. that looks promising! I heard about it but that was a long time ago and I forgot. thanks @sibloure@beehaw.org :)

I always wished this would be on the 1.st setup startpage of every home router. ever. It would make me very happy

Same. And all I got was the one with 4 colours.

I’m ready

Reddit will never be normal again after this. Someone else said it recently - It doesn’t matter if only 5% (or less) of the user base leave because this 5% will most likely be the most passionate and active users actively creating content that is not advertisement.
In the long run; the content quality will decline because of that.

In addition, these statistics likely do not distinguish what is bot traffic that are scraping the site vs users. The bots will keep scraping.

I’m happy with enpass myself for s few years now. it has all kind of sync options and wifi p2p sync if you want to be offline. they offer subscription shit, but luckily also a normal software license to buy.

It might be cheap but it’s also very reliable, intuitive, familiar and all that in even weird conditions… which millions of controllers prove in any gamers household every day. In addition it’s used by military forces all around the world - including bomb squads because it works (mostly its the xbox 360 as far ad know)

the problem is elsewhere - i’m almost certain of it.

Best I can do is spent some of the claps I have left from the generous clapping during covid.

Isn’t 1passwoed subscription only? If I remember correctly that’s what drove me away from a once great application.

and now they want to collect data from paying customers?? excuse me? are you insane?

crash and burn.

As much as I dislike what’s going on - sabotaging ones work has next to 0 impact on the company scheme of things. All it does is, give you a bad exit once you leave - or if you keep it up long enough get fired.

worst case ending up with a bad reputation in the long run, since sind companies do ask previous employers for feedback. sometimes without your “ok”.

I would not recommend sabotaging your work an future

Giving an interview to press, bloggers, podcasters and stating the facts and truth afterwards… or something in that line is likely more beneficial for everyone and yourself.

I you decide it’s time to leave - regardless of reasons - try a clean exit for your own good. If you have been mistreated at work, seek legal advice.

„they” could have “solved” the necessity for owning a pirate hat. but they fucked up too many times.

even if you’re ok with just streaming and owning nothing for your money… you need like 6 subscriptions to listen and watch the stuff you want. I’m not willing nor able to spend hundreds for nothing. I used that money to purchase a large hard drive and some cool tshirts from my favorite bands.

greed is an ugly removed and I am wearing yet again my trusty old pirate hat.

But on the other hand they get a free shotgun with their first credit card debt /s

realistically it’s going to be impossible to implement this. not even taking into account that most of the people making these decisions have absolutely no clue

If you’re in Europe it’s very easy. A GDPR request is supposed to give you everything you want (and don’t want) from your account. Chats, comments, posts, … everything.

If you’re not in europe… phew. I don’t know. But i’m sure there’s a script on GitHub. Can’t search GitHub right now, it’s blocked in the office network :( (for good reason…)
