Nice. I have an Areopress but I could never really get into it. I liked its results but I just find it nicer to brew using other methods. For grinder I recently got a 1Zpresso manual grinder and I love it - it is a joy to use and makes a meaningful improvement in the results.
It is weird to me to see so many people put forward "Reddit deserves to make money" and endless plans on how to generate revenue from API, apps or whatever etc but just entirely miss that bad faith, is bad faith. There is no negotiation and this CEO will run Reddit into the ground or not but he isn't listening at all to the community as far as I can tell.
Fact is he is the one that is responsible for massively increasing expenses by nearly tripling the workforce while at the same time having no real plan (any plan?) to make money from that move.
It is sad because you know no matter how this works out he will be fine and I bet a bunch of Reddit staff lose their jobs and the community is left floundering.
Let's say no to for-profit business driven social media altogether.

This doesn't seem too bad for a hastily arranged reaction to all of this. I know it is frustrating to not have immediate gratification, but demoralizing those who are staying strong is not helpful.
From people I follow, generally positive. A lot of early-game balance issues but it is good to see these being addressed rapidly. It's a beautiful game, with great voice acting and people generally enjoy the story. Probably the major complaints are the level scaling system that makes progress feel... weird and the limited endgame.
For me, I like it but I don't feel overly compelled to play it. I put in a little time and that feels like enough for me. That's not usally how I take on games, so even though I do not have specific complaints about it, I am not that excited about it. I regret paying extra for early admission. That amount of extra money was much better spent on Hades.
This doesn't get mentioned enough. They drastically increased their workforce during covid. That is a massive new expense and what exactly do they have to show for it? Has Reddit improved in that time? I don't see that it has. Now suddenly this bizarre API move. None of it adds up to good leadership to me.
Undecided on Lemmy, but good so far. I deleted my Reddit account and have no plans on returning unless they get rid of the CEO and even then not sure I would.
I agree for the most part and that the front page should be more focused on what the user will gain or be able to do if they join and in language that understand. However, the first sentence is "Follow communities anywhere in the world" not bad at least. It should elaborate on what that means.
Some people of course really do care about FOSS and letting people know that or even just having them see those words/ideas is important IMHO. It could, however, elaborate by saying "social media that is not corporate controlled" or whatever that may make the point about it more clear.
