It won't happen. Reddit is dying. The culture has had a massive shift and you simply don't recover from that. When they have their IPO it will be very telling.

But based on this fiasco, any sane investor would have some serious reservations about the leadership of Reddit but its future in the social networking space.

They pissed off a LOT of people, and those people are the ones that create all of the content.

But look across the social media spectrum. FB, Twitter, Reddit. All of them are just tanking.

We are on the precipice of a big paradigm shift in how we communicate with one another online.

I am wondering if, based on this horrible AMA, if subs are going to either blackout early, or decide that 48 hours won't really do anything so they opt to go indefinitely.

Not any more than I mourned digg. Reddit is dying, just like Digg did and we collectively looked for a new home and found Reddit. I am hoping Lemmy takes off and we make our new home a decentralized version of the parts we liked about reddit, without the parts we didn't like.

Will be a fun ride and I am glad I am on this train with Lemmy (Both Beehaw.org and lemmy.ml)

The problem is this, from the transcript:

Me: I said "If you want Apollo to go quiet". Like in terms of- I would say it's quite loud in terms of its API usage.

Reddit: Oh, go quiet as in that. Okay, got it. Got it. Sorry.

Me: Like it's a very-

Reddit: Yeah, that's a complete misinterpretation on my end.

Me: Yeah. No, no, it's all good.

Reddit: I apologize. I apologize immediately.

The "threat" part was resolved right there. Steve just wanted to retcon the conversation as a way to dog Christian. He didn't anticipate Christian was gonna roll in with receipts.

I saw the announcement then purged all comments and posts from both of my accounts, then deleted the accounts.

I'm out.

Overall I feel great!

Diablo IV has been an absolute gem, and next Tuesday a big update drops for GTA:Online.

These two items will keep me busy for the Summer.

Oof. That hurts.

For the mana (essence) make sure you are taking advantage of essence buffs in the skill tree as well as watching for armor/jewelry/weapons that will assist with rapidly recovering essence.

Also look online for sorcerer builds to see what other folks are doing and what skills they are using for not only leveling, but also for endgame.

We were just listening to this in the office. This and Too Much Time in my hands are my fave Styx tracks. Kinda prog-rocky.

I am right there with you. I think this album was a vessel to allow them to deal with the trauma of Taylor's passing as well as introducing the next phase of FF. It is not my favorite album of theirs, but that's not a bad thing. I have still listened to it a lot since it dropped and I thoroughly enjoy it. Even some of the sad tracks.

So I really enjoy this one. Sent it to two of my buddies and now it's a thing. 👍

Hooked. Immediately. Great recommendation.

 

Daily, I play Wordle and 7 Little Words when I first get up, but I was wondering what other types of quick games like that that people play regularly.
