reddit General

It's time to return to the old days of small forums and or medium sized social media sites instead of these social media giants like twitter and reddit.
This is the problem. It’s a monoculture environment. Trump needs to break up some of these giants, not ditch 230. The problem is not too much hate/free speech, it’s too few huge corporate platforms. If there are multiple smaller ones, the problem largely resolved. No ecosystem which is so poor is stable.

He can't. There's too many "BUT MUH FREE ECONOMY" morons who will stop it.
 
I feel like reddit is becoming the worlds first active advert network in which the users willingly jack themselves in to be fed a diet of corporate happy speak in order to consume products. I have no clue why anyone would use it, fuck the echochamber, it will be a feed line to fatten up the customers for ripe extraction of value.

It's not Racism. It's pattern recognition and self defense.

No, it is racism, but I agree this is how you make more people racist, and it sucks.

To anybody on here that came from Reddit, we have a strict immigration policy. Please line up in a orderly fashion and await your bullet to the head.

FTFY.
 
I highly recommend people take a look at the linked thread. Some janny is trying to give limp dick justifications and explanations but is getting his shit kicked in by everyone. I haven't laughed this much in a while. Well done reddit, you did it :drink:

Technically not a janny, because he doesn't, in fact, do it for free. That's the fucking CEO/co-founder's account ROFL.

As a reminder, he looks like this:

He also previously edited user comments without their knowledge because they were criticizing him.


 
"After having spoken to a person with a hobby, I am no longer interested in people without a hobby". What a fresh take! We should all try to find hobbies; something to engage in when we're bored, and things to talk about with fellow-minded people! You may even find a partner in life!

Replace anime with anything else and it's a good opinion, but the fact he needed to state anime specifically just means that he likely never had a proper hobby, so basically, his identity is consooming japanese media.

all true, but these days I'm skeptical anyone wants anything outside of that bland monoculture. and without a certain level of general interest any new forum won't have enough traffic to make it viable. even extremely conservative subreddits cannot wean themselves off that website and the ease of visibility it offers. and crowds you'd think could be early adopters just don't want anything new. why post on 9/v/ when 4chan is still up? there is little sense of community like a pre-social media internet. there is only a currency of visibility, managed by 3 tech companies.

I guess my point is that culture is compounding this legal problem too. if people want a consolidated internet, then someone is going to be in charge of that empire.
 
On today's episode of "Corporate Scrambling To Virtue-Signal After George Floyd's Death," we see a company who not only changed their cute little logo to reflect how much they Love and Care About Black People, but who actively went against the creator's wishes by outlawing free speech! Stay tuned for our commercial break, which will be nothing but ads for Joe Biden and the latest Disney/Marvel movie showcasing either a woman or person of color.
 
Here I was doing so well with ignoring the sad state of the internet and then glorious leader comes back and ruins my day.

Close the boarder, if someone tries to register tell them they're infected and advise them to return to Reddit.

I just looked, forum regs are closed.
