I’m not sure if this is new, but when I clicked on the /r/pics protest post link from the frontpage here, I was redirected to this: https://old.reddit.com/premium
I’m not sure if this is well-known or not that they’re pushing it now, but it’s the first time I’ve seen it, especially on old.reddit.
So what? I can open my sub and put Nancy Pelosi’s ass on it.
It all depends on your sense of humor.
No one forces you to pay, ads are easily blocked.
Your acrimonious talk is happening because you realize that Steve Huffman is acting legitimately, but not the way you want him to.
And that no one is going to ask you in this argument.
Maybe 50% of the subs closed, but 50% stayed.
And you’re left in a half-empty Lemmy and jerking off to the fall of Reddit.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I like that you posted a John Oliver puppy for upvotes since this hot take was so heavily downvoted.
Seems someone wants to have their cake and eat it too.
Fuck off spez.
For what it’s worth I really enjoyed Lemmy a lot more than reddit for the first 1-4 days. Now it’s filled with a lot more people and the comments went from insightful paragraphs to meme-y 1-liners, but that’s not something a magazine purge can’t fix.
I’ll be honest with you. I don’t care about mass upvotes and mass downvotes. These are the weapons of pimply emo leftists, not adults.
good thing you are above all that.
i love the no one forces you to … argument, because you can always say it and it never means anything…
before you say it: no, he is also not forced to do anything, but maybe think about the difference between lawful, legitimate and the way someone wants someone else to act. nobody says he’s not acting lawfully, legitimacy is dependant on your objectivity and i don’t care if he acts the way someone wants him to.
this was no argument until you acted the way you did ;)
that makes the price all the more ridiculous.
ya so what? you seem to be here to…
I won’t even respond to your juggling with my words. I’m lazy. You’ll start taking my phrases out of context again and the discussion will devolve into an empty argument. Surely your parents didn’t let you use the internet (if you were born then) when Google turned off all third party apps from the popular Google Talk back then. You probably don’t remember when Facebook and WhatsApp did the same thing. All social networks and messengers are going through this kind of production optimization and no one is making a big deal out of it. And in conclusion: I used fediverse when it was not yet mainstream. And now I have to admire the yelling of Reddit refugees.
