Since I’m using the app right now, I’ll have to recite this from memory. But at the bottom of the screen you should see a button second from the left three lines.
Click on that and search for a group in the top portion. Click on the group once found , and there there is a subscribe button. As of yesterday cliking it appears to do nothing. In fact it does work. Exit the list and go back in, you will be subscribed.
Not fact. It’s my opinion based on the actions I see, and the fact things started to go down hill after the investors gave money. One of the big ones was Chinese.
We’ve seen how things go down when China is involved - loans to poor nations, Hong Kong, Taiwan, the disputed islands with Japan, Tibet, the Urghurs.
We’ve seen the various iterations of the “oops how did that key logger get in there?” discoveries (Lenovo, i’m looking at you), corporate espionage, Huawei telecommunications infrastructure being used to tap communicatons, etc…
Strict control of pretty much everything is the pattern, in which disinformation is easily dispensed and difficult to identify.
Looks like the Chinese “investor” is the Communist Party. The actions Reddit is taking are pretty much how they take down all the companies and citizens they target.
Don’t worry, the bots, trolls, and dingbats will follow once they realize the party is here. However, they first have to grok the fediverse/Foss thing.
Well, that gave me some useful context, thanks! I was mew to reddit, having resisted all social media since the dawn of twitter until almost 2 years ago with reddit.
I started a Mastodon account late last year in response to twitter’s API madness, though I don’t use it much. Refit was the one that got me in the end.
O.o
