Why would Nintendo agree to such a terrible deal?

I was using mobile website on ios but then tried the Memmy app. The app experience is much better.

Maybe a jailbait mod who also secretly edits user comments with his admin privileges is not suitable to be CEO.

If the discussions have been going on for that long, why this exact moment in time, and why such a short deadline?

Why any moment in time? We did it when we did it. We could do it a year from now and we’d probably have the same conversation. We could do it five years ago, we’d be having the same conversation.

I guess what I still don’t quite understand is, if this has been thought about for a long time, is the goal just to meet this deadline and move on? Like just turn a new leaf from there?

We don’t have to meet our deadline. We told folks hey, we need to come up with a plan, or we’re going to start billing you on July 1st.

Complete mess of a CEO. I'm so glad that I'm not using Reddit anymore.

I’m actually curious the reason why Lemmy does not have a karma equivalent.

I don’t miss it since I rarely checked my reddit karma but it does have pros and cons.

I rarely engage with Reddit stories but when I do, I treat stories in popular-ish subs as discussions about hypothetical scenarios: “if this were to happen then what would you think of it?”

I completely stay away from threads that are clear rage baits, and they are easy to spot.

Or maybe /u/spez is manually changing vote counts, as he did before when modifying user comments without saying so.

They did this in only a few subs for now. Likely testing waters in preparation for forcing all other subs to be public.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Reddit completely removes the private sub feature.

The funny part is that they claim that this will improve the user’s experience.

As if users in r/BuyItForLife are interested in ads for shitty products lol.

Lemmy is a much better choice because there will never be a need to migrate away from Lemmy. Also, no investors, no dark patterns and no pursuit of infinite growth.
