I moved to Lemmy because Sync was announced that's where they were going, but I'm not going to pay a monthly subscription for an app. I expected a reasonable one time payment like I had on Sync for Reddit. If that's not an option then I'll have to figure something else out

Fold phones fix a problem I don't have. The tech is interesting, but irrelevant to me

On March 29, 2013, Myers' Franklin County residence was searched by upwards of 40 members of the ATF alongside agents from the GBI. The investigators also searched Myers's father's nearby farm, a frequent filming location for FPSRussia. ATF spokesman Richard Coes said the justification for the search was "that [Myers] was using explosives and getting paid for it via YouTube."

In August 2017, Myers' residence was again raided by ATF and GBI agents after Myers was alleged to have received 25 grams of butane hash oil through the mail. The Department of Justice prosecuted on the grounds that illegal drug possession while owning a firearm is a federal offense. Myers was arrested for felony possession of a controlled substance with intent to distribute and 50 of his weapons were confiscated under Section 922(g)(3) of the Gun Control Act of 1968, which prohibits illegal drug users from possessing firearms. He later pleaded guilty to Possession with Intent to Distribute Marijuana and Butane Hash Oil, with all other charges dismissed.

On June 19, 2019, Myers was sentenced to two years' probation and 56 days in prison, which he served at Federal Correctional Institution, Talladega in 2019, as well as a fine in the amount of $7,500. Since his release from prison, Myers has spoken about the case on his YouTube podcast Painkiller Already.

Hmmm, maybe I've been on the internet too long but the handwriting doesn't look like it was written on a vertical pole. It looks like it was easy to write

Assuming a users upvote history or karma ever meant anything, this demonstrates perfectly it's useless on Lemmy.

Reddit basically has leprosy and has been falling apart for a while. You don't notice the accumulation of small changes until you take a step back and reevaluate it as a whole

Same, I heard about Lemmy from Sync. I'm just waiting for them to roll out Sync Pro for Lemmy

Reddit is facing a crisis both in its user base and its finances. After protests and backlashed ravaged the platform in the wake of Reddit opting to charge for access to its API, the company’s valuation has been sliced.

TechCrunch reports that the Blue Chip Growth Fund at Fidelity, a major financial services provider, has reduced its estimates of Reddit’s holdings following an already poor estimate earlier this spring. Fidelity now estimates that Reddit’s holdings could be around $US15.4 million as of May 31, which is down over 7% from the fund’s estimates of $US16.6 million from this past April. This new figure is is also a reported 45.4% slide since Reddit secured Series F funding in August 2021, when an asset manager acquired the platform’s shares for $US28.2 million.

Reddit did not immediately return Gizmodo’s request for comment on the valuation.
