Funny thing is, this is exactly what reddit wants. When it’s time to show the traffic after API shutdown they’ll show the traffic of all the users that are protesting, and guess what, it’ll be higher than before the API shutdown

Really cool design, would it be snappy? I mean if you slide a bit it snaps to an upvote, so it’s easier to choose the action you want to perform.

Tracking, ads, money.

It’s sad, but it seems to me you adapted to the fediverse, I see you on my frontpage every time I check it, great content, good job!

Looks amazing so far! I will definitely use it

I wonder if other official subreddits will stop being official

I stopped the bot, people don’t seem to like automated content, so I stopped development as well. Sorry

That’s a great way to filter people in some way. I wonder for how long this will last. I’m not saying it can’t be permanent but I’m sure at some point it will attract awful people

It’s interesting to see people talking about bots flooding some communities with content and others saying there’s not enough.
I created a bot, not to bring posts and comments from reddit but to use reddit as content curator, to bring links that were engaging there on to here.
However some people think theres a difference between users making a post with just a link to a news article or a bot doing it.
I think there’s a use for bots, when the content they bring is external to both reddit and lemmy, and discussion around it is organic.

I would like to know why, why is it that chill people came here and why most of the awful people stayed there

Ah, the meta memes, we have evolved

Also this type of integration could be implemented, the projects are young enough to make big changes on how they work.

When spez says “We don’t want to show NSFW to users” they mean they don’t care how many users voted, they are saying “We don’t want to give a bad impression to users that will use Reddit no matter what”.
They just don’t care about anything else that isn’t money, if they could replace Reddit users with tiktok users they would be thrilled, even if they lose 12+ year old accounts with thousands of comments.
With this I’m not saying the protest is useless, it has the power to basically kill Reddit if enough users participate in it.

I think kbin has a good aproach to this, a completely different tab that allows you to make posts in the mastodon format. This could also be the case on lemmy some point, however I would understand if lemmy users don’t want this at all.

I understand, there’s many people that want nothing to do with a community like that, me included, but ultimately it will being attention to it, because some sympathize with these points of view. Hopefully the admins of shitjustworks take measures to make sure there’s no racism on their instance.

I think with time, compatibility between different services will become better, so far with lemmy limited compatibility and kbin with full compatibility, we are going in a good direction

I think this type of posts will have an opposite impact to what we want, we are just giving it the attention it needs to become what it was on Reddit, my recommendation? Block it immediately.

Then he shouldn’t get paid like all the mods

There’s multiple things to consider, both are great options, but right now I’m liking kbin more for these reasons:

• Better algorithm, when I go to my homepage I feel that the site is full of new, active content, where people are having discussions.
• Integration with Mastodon, I like to take a peek from time to time on the Microblog tab.
• No feed bug. Lemmy has a problem where it would show every single new post on top of the feed (I know this is being fixed)

Overall both Lemmy and kbin are in their infancy and I expect both to get better to a point where choosing between them won’t come down to which one of the two have less bugs, and more focused in the features and appearance you want, this ofc will change with the many apps being developed, since they will be vastly different.
I might end up in Lemmy or I might stay on kbin, it depends which one feels more “active” to me.
