Post that trigger outrage are much more likely to be upvoted. Users feel good seeing their ideas reinforced especially in contrasting “us vs them” scenarios.

I paused using lemmy.ml because 90% of the time it doesn’t work

It’s 100% joking about Elon Musk’s Twitter.

It’s ok to be quirky but the word toots gives a cheap knock off vibe, and I’m saying this as a lover of the fediverse.

Those stories are most likely fake so nothing was lost.

Meta knows they can’t fix their terrible privacy record so they might as well milk it.

I was using i.reddit.com during this period. The default mobile website was completely unusable.

Of course, they recently removed i.reddit.com, similar to the third party apps. They achieved the desired user growth and are now transitioning into the aggressive monetization phase.

Good luck making money off of me while I'm using Lemmy instead of Reddit.

At this point in time, reddit cares about numbers, not competency. It doesn’t matter If a sub (or the entire site) degrades over time, as long as IPO numbers are maximized so they can cash in.

What did /u/spez mean by “his joke” when referring to apollo creator in one of the ama comments?

I commend the shutdown but if things get out of hand reddit admins will take over the popular subs. They won’t let a prime sub get shut down by mods.
