Oh well ain't that a surprise. Boycott Meta products.

Arch. Went in at the deep end.
Suffice to say that I no longer use Linux. Got it built with relative ease though inevitably hit issues along the way, but got tired of having to use terminal for everything. Would not recommend Arch as your first distro unless you already love existing in a terminal.
It's exactly the reason the EU shut the door on them.
That Meta swooped in right when Twitter were at their lowest point? I feel like this isn't very surprising. I also think that this isn't actually going to be the revolutionary platform some people are making out it will be.
A business' way of having the customer pick up the bill for them not paying their staff properly. Really unfortunate that this has become so socially expected.
I felt this, but as the end of the month drew nearer and I adjusted to the idea of losing Reddit more, it has actually felt like a really cathartic process for me. Using PowerDeleteSuite on my profile, creating a new one here, searching for new communities within it. I honestly think this change will be a net positive for me personally. Reddit was absolutely swamped in noise and low quality content, it had been for years. A communal shift into a new world, that holds different values at the forefront, and by default (smaller, federated communities) content quality should improve. It reminds me a little of the old message board days.
I'm just waiting on a kbin app that goes at least some way to being as good an experience as Apollo was, as I'm mostly a mobile user.
Depends how you define 'worthless'. In the case of Apollo, it certainly wasn't financially worthless for him. And just to be clear, I have no issue with a quality app developer making money doing what they do.
