It’s called “differently sanitied”, you monster!

You’re saying that with hindsight though. Everyone has their limit. They likely purchased Reddit premium before their personal limit was reached.

Really though, advocating for change doesn’t mean you need to stick your head in the sand and not make the slot of the world as it is today. That’s just a propaganda talking point because it’s lazier to call people hypocrites than it is to actually disprove their points.

… you get some amount of awards for free. You’re jumping to conclusions by assuming they paid for them.

Also, it has been less than 30 days since this fiasco began. So some people could still be subscribed from the before times. And a lot of people who did subscribe likely subscribed annually because it was significantly cheaper than month-to-month.

But leftists. Sure.

Let’s see how that works out for them.

Judging by the comments you get if you suggest switching away from Reddit, Reddit will do very well. I won’t be there, but they’ll be successful even if the site goes more to shit.

I hated her as a kid watching the show. But now I realize that I agree with her teleportation-is-murder-stance. I mean, it’s definitely murder.

Meta will try to have good content. Then they’ll add features rapidly calling them “standards”. The open source community won’t be able to keep up. Meta content will not work fully on Lemmy and other clients. People will migrate to meta controlled instances to keep the good content. The open source and community versions will end up being a pain and only for the true believers like Linux desktop.

No, but they both work for the same people.

Hey hey hey. I’m chronically online. That’s why I care enough to be here instead of Reddit!

I was actually ok with paying them $50 a year for ad-free before they started de-modding people for protesting. Now they can go fuck themselves. I am sympathetic to their need to be profitable. But effectively taking over subreddits is totally unacceptable and Reddit is no longer Reddit.
