FSB has announced they've started a criminal investigation into him.

I wonder if he's in cahoots with the CIA or something?

Christian Selig: I want to debunk Reddit's claims, and talk about their unwillingness to work with developers, moderators, and the larger community, as well as say thank you for all the support in c/[email protected]

/r/politics and /r/worldnews are beyond terrible. Just constant propaganda and astro turfing, bots, and just generally brainwashed idiots who take an editorialized headline as fact, and then race to the comments to make a shitty non-constructive joke. And God forbid you try to bring up evidence to counter their arguments, you'll get downvoted to hell if not banned. It really started to become noticable around 2016 after Bernie lost the primaries, and it's only gotten exponentially worse since then.

More is not better. Also if you think Facebook, Meta or the zuck are good people, you haven't been paying attention.

Value/JSONOBJECT error happens to me constantly. Probably the biggest blocker to using the app right now.

I'll be logged in, but when attempting to subscribe to a community or adding a comment, I get an error "login first". I just went back to the account drop-down and reselected my account and am now able to make this comment. I'll often come back to the app and see my account and login info is gone, and I have to re-add them and re-login

Honestly we're all adults here and we all know how the Internet works. Best to not feed the trolls and ignore them. The more attention you give the more it gives the appearances that their rhetoric has validity. Just move on and let's all focus on making a better fediverse for all

Russia admits to running low in c/[email protected]

Ukrainian soldiers are also complaining about lack of ammunition and are fielding. T-55s. While Russia has a much larger geographical and raw resource base to rely on to build new Equipment, Ukraine does not have that luxury (but does have western support). So if Putins statements about increasing production of military equipment 3x-10x are accurate projections, I can see why they still think they can keep going.
