It seems like a non major issue. It’s better to start the communities you want to have, rather than wait on someone else who might be marginally better located.
I went on a summer camping trip that involved driving through miles of desert in middle of no where USA. There was no water, fuel, or anything for at least 500 miles in any direction. Especially no traffic. Our van came upon a car stranded on the side of the road, two twenty something guys desperately trying to flag us down. We were kinda wary because they were acting off, and we were all women But no way could we leave them, that would be a death sentence. So we told them to climb up in the cargo bay, gave them water and told them we’d drop them off at the next town.
A couple hours later they sobered up and explained they had gotten lost coming back from a summer road trip, driven until they had run out of gas. Four hours later of 100 plus degree temperatures and no other cars they had gotten overheated from the sun and had made the monumentally dumb decision to drink the tequila they had brought as a souvenir because it was the only liquid in the car. We took them into town, replenished our water and went on our way. I think about how easily they could have never run into anybody out there before it was too late.
That RIF is fun had a revenue sharing agreement explains why they were able to keep Reddit in front the apps name when other 3rd party apps couldn’t. Corporate Reddit sounds like a nightmare to work with.
It does read like their expectations were way too high. But they are right that this isn’t casual user friendly yet. I do hope we get there, I’d like this place to stay active.
It’s not like they don’t know it’s not paid, if it’s a fun hobby people choose to support the communities they love they’d spend the time anyway. But with every move to make Reddit more corporate it makes the sites reliance on volunteers more exploitative.
This one said it was open for people to hop on, figured I’d help lighten the load for the bigger servers since they were expecting heavy traffic once the blackout got started
I notice he says about a thousand when the article cites closer to 8,000 subs going dark. This is probably the closest they’ll get to admitting the protest did anything at all to Reddit.
I have a pitcher with a filter basket made for cold brew coffee. Only tips I’ve got are make sure the beans are big enough not to fit through the filter. Otherwise it’s just add coffee, fill with water, wait about 20 hours. Cold brew sounds more intimidating than it actually is.
I love my cold brew pitcher. I need my coffee grinder since it needs a much coarser grind for the cold brew method. But it comes out so smooth. My second favorite is a pour over drip brew.
I am not sad. It started to feel a bit like a bad addiction. The huge increase in casual users also brought a whole bunch of corporate accounts running heavy PR activity on reddit, and quality of discussion has tanked, probably from a lot of bots commenting.
I stayed on Reddit a lot for support forums that were prone to brigading attacks. I know how hard the mods were working to keep the spaces constructive. Reddit is not only trying to sell my attention as a commodity they own, but also under appreciating the mods volunteer hours for why the site was worth it.

I heard their message boards were getting lots of death threat level nasty messages, the mods said it was too much to deal with case by case.

One of the mods posted here that they were forcibly removed by admin

Probably because he has back end control to make sure elections give him what he wants with the veneer of popular support.

¯_(ツ)_/¯ I didn’t name the server. Nothing wrong with a latte
In hindsight it’s crazy how many adults had to fail us to get there but I’m glad the boys team helped us call bullshit
Really hope to see this pass with enough teeth to make a difference.
It looks delicious

Probably increased public education.
