Aye.
This is both a blessing and a curse. Already there are some… less welcome, Reddit behaviors visible here. I’d rather people leave their old baggage at the doorstep, heh. 😬
But that’s the point I’m making here. Facebook didn’t fall and Reddit won’t either. It’s going to evolve, cater to different clientele, offer different content/experience. But it won’t fall.
Amen to that.
I don’t imagine staying on some site that resembles a drowning wreck, because “I got used to how things work here”.
I don’t think Reddit will fall, sadly.
It harbors too many people, who go there for a specific content and don’t care about the internal dramas, or who leads the place and what he thinks about the userbase. In addition… Eh, it hosted Obama, Arnold, plenty of actors, celebrities.
My assumption is that it will simply evolve into something different, but no less popular.
After all, Facebook was caught redhanded on such abominable practices that it should be burnt to a crisp long time ago, and yet it’s still there, led by that automaton, what’shisname…
I doubt it - too many people with different preferences they aren’t willing to let go, I’m afraid.
If you’re asking me, it’s “good enough” the way it is. I’d gladly have some more content filters, but even without them I perceive it as a platform with enough potential to consider it good.
Well, to keep a user is way harder than to attract his attention.
I think that the key differences between this platform(s) and the more known alternatives are part of the problem - people are very dumb these days and lazy. Often the first reaction to something new and not working in the expected way is to skip it, or demand the solution, rather than look around, try different approach and such.
I feel like I’m witnessing Diaspora 2.0 effect…
It is - accessing a social site via desktop or app has been as old, as Facebook.
…but feel free to claim that the rock you’ve been hiding under for the last 10 or 20 years isn’t real… 😎

It’s common knowledge.
No clue, never used an app to browse such sites.
Still, I don’t see why they shouldn’t be visible, if you browse same site/same content on the app.
Do it, then. There’s CREATE COMMUNITY button above your thread.
Europe here.
Metric system was never a problem in any game that I can recall. Even US’ citizens often found it easy to get, when they formed a minority in the group.
My pleasure.
I’ll be posting a few music-related links in upcoming days.
Do tell me…
I’m not sure what motivates people who come here to practice “gorilla marketing” and do everything in their power to gain popularity and virtual points. It’s like they don’t realize it’s not Facebook or Reddit…
Similar amount + even more users.
I miss “by type” filters. With politics, news, sport and cats/dogs gone, I’d probably have to block only few communities irrelevant to my interests.
A disclaimer: I love both cats and dogs, but the communities dedicated to either are damn depressing + the photos are usually of shit quality.
I know better solutions and see them applied everywhere, like “filter out keywords”, “block certain domains”, “show only threads with more than x upvotes”, etc, etc.
tl;dr: don’t be an ass, dude.
Just Elon Eloning his Elonism to Eloning levels.
More seriously: Elon decided it’s a good move to rebrand his new toy. Nobody knows for sure what’s going through his head. It’s probably some sort of OCD, or something…
Do tell me.
The stream of new threads from all communities shouldn’t appear on the “frontpage”…
Trying my best! 👍
I put trust in everyone who visits this place, that they will find the time and inclination to try out the link relevant to their interests.
After all, it takes just a few minutes to visit it, register an account and see whether it’s worth of any further energy investment.
Wtf are you talking about? There’s only one birthday song.
