That's why I'm not sure that letter was intentionally leaked. He said all the wrong things for de-escalating this situation, he just added more fuel to the fire.

I'm not so sure. There are subreddits I need like /r/anime that have already extended the blackout, if other subreddits follow suit which I think they will then there's no reason for me to go back to reddit, there's nothing there but a corrupt out of touch immature CEO.

Also they aren't gonna handcuff him because they don't want him to look guilty.

Might as well leave them down indefinitely. I'm gonna block reddit at the DNS level, I'm done.

You'd be surprised. Modern PHP with Laravel can actually be quite nice to work with.

Which is a real shame, because WD was until recently the gold standard of disk drive reliability. To my recollection, I’ve never seen a WD drive fail.

Oh boy, I've had about 10 drive failures out of like 46 drives, all WD. I've had 3 WD Red Pro 6TBs fail and 7 WD Red 6TBs fail. This has been over around 7 or so years, although one of the WD Red Pro 6TB drives was bought this year and failed within 2 weeks (over 1000 bad sectors, it had the worst SMART stats I'd ever seen).

The WD Red 6TBs are particularly bad, I've had better luck with the WD Red Pro 6TBs, and then IIRC the WD Red 3TBs are like by far the worst out of WD's Reds.

Not to mention, WD already tried pulling a fast one on customers when they swapped out WD Red drives with SMR drives then had to make a WD Red Plus for their (existing) CMR Red drives. I had a WD Red 6TB drive go bad, replaced it with a brand new WD Red Plus 6TB which immediately went bad, then replaced it with a WD Red Pro 6TB which also went bad within a few days. I replaced that one once again with a brand new WD Red Pro 6TB (I love brick and mortar PC stores, I got an awesome PC store near me) and that drive has been perfectly fine for a few months. My original WD Red 6TB drive in question did last me like, 6 or 7 years, I just got really unlucky with two quick failures in a row but all is good now.

I've not had a great experience with WD, but I've still heard worse things about Seagate so I am sticking with my WD Red Pro 6TBs for now.

I know this is a joke, but not only is KBin built on PHP, but so are Facebook, PornHub, and Wikipedia.

Honestly even this year it hasn't been super reliable, even before any of this. Stability has never really been a top priority for them.

That was honestly hilarious, they deserve those problems and more.

Plex is like, slightly more complete and robust and simpler but Jellyfin is so so so close to a complete replacement of Plex. Jellyfin also has some nice features that Plex doesn't.

Seriously, we are super blessed to have him.

It's not like there's not a strong leftist culture on reddit either so I don't really see that as a problem unique to Lemmy. If Lemmy can provide a centralized-like decentralized platform, I think it can succeed.
