Already deleted all my reddit accounts and uninstalled Joey (TPA). I'll be honest and say that I won't completely stop going to reddit, but it will be pretty rare and just as a spectator. I won't be participating anymore. There's just too much information there right now and there are some subs i follow that probably won't migrate here.
I agree. I'm on Arch and EOS and whenever I need a guide outside the wiki, 9.5/10 times it has instructions for apt. Makes me want to go back to Mint/Debian sometimes. Lol
We should move. Even if we did a longer blackout, the admins can just replace the mods of the bigger subs and ignore the smaller ones. Even if the blackout is effective, they will pull something like this again.
I've lost trust in them. I'm not going back except maybe for information if I really need to.
Thanks! I'm not sure I'll be using many of Vivaldi's features but it's nice to know they're a good option. I'll stick with Brave for now. Too many features scare me.
I saw that. That's honestly stupid, imo. I mean, they can still track you and force feed you ads. Sure you can have an adblocker but that's the same for mobile.
Idk why they'd do that, tbh.
Idk. I enjoyed it when it's done well. I subbed to subs like r/redditsings because of it.
Oof.. then it might not be the browser. Maybe an extension?
I'm really interested in running my personal instance. Can you point me to a tutorial on how to go about that?
This is why I'm hoping people stay even after the blackout. Lemmy has potential but a big part of it is the community. I already like it here and I've seen it grow despite being here for only a week. It's honestly amazing to watch.
Hope it works!
I mean, reddit's CEO used to mod that sub. Reddit and redditors were still fine after it blew up. Why are there different standards? The sub may have been banned already, but I doubt spez has changed much. Reddit admins have gotten away with a lot like editing comments, refusing to ban certain subs until there was media coverage, etc. Personally, I haven't encountered any censorship due to political affiliations (yet). And if it happes, I'll change instances.
They don't control the fediverse just as much as they can't control which instance I join/create.
