How do you link to a reddit page without actually sending people to Reddit? in c/[email protected]

Use a libreddit instance.

Jimmy Wales, founder of Wikipedia, is working on a Reddit alternative called Trust Cafe. Registration is open! in c/[email protected]

As an active Wikipedian, Vulcan sincerely doubt that this Jimbo's attempt will be successful at all. An ActivePub support will be welcome however.

His track record with social media isn't encouraging.

Yup, as an early adopter (and someone who loves bleeding edge thing), Vulcan can tolerate the lack of features at Kbin (and Lemmy).

Trying to convince some friends, and they complained about lack of activity in #threadiverse. Alright then, we can use this momentum to build and grow #threadiverse to be as competitive as the Snoo Platform.

Entire mod teams of r/interestingasfuck, r/TIHI and r/mildlyinteresting KICKED out. Some even locked out of their accounts in c/[email protected]

More hubris at the Snoo Platform
