Isn’t the whole point of “toast” that it’s bread that is toasted? How can sushi, an undeniable raw food be “toast”? I’ll accept the cube rule, but toast needs a new classification.,

It’s already been reversed because of how badly it did.
(Discussion) Would you pay for Reddit Premium IF it allowed you to continue using your favorite app?
They did years ago. AlienBlue was the unofficial “official” app. It was the most popular Reddit app on the App Store. Reddit bought it and at first it was fine, but then Reddit decided it didn’t like supporting AB and its official app, so they shut AB down and forced everyone to their official app.
I’m fine with the site being a black sheep, but most of us are refugees. We are going to have growing pains and people will trickle/stream in over time. The best way to ensure the fedverse dies before living is to make talk about Reddit a taboo or a thing to ridicule. People are going to complain, just don’t engage and over time it’ll die out.
At the moment I personally welcome cross posting. I’m dying for content right now. Haven’t found a lot of mags to join. I would start some but I would be shit for modding or content creation.
Yeah, I’ve been on it for a few days while I’m traveling. It’s a lot better now that cloudflare has been removed. But it’s still not great. Mostly I need more magazines. m/all is filled with the same ones over and over and they aren’t quite my vibe.
Here I was hoping it would be new magazines for me to sub too. Gonna take a while to acclimate to new terminology.
Spez is lying out of his ass in that AMA. “Reddit isn’t profitable”. Bitch! You’re telling your VCs are fine propping you up for almost 20 years without returns? I smell bullshit.
So pardon my ignorance but if you’re on lemmy and beehaw defederated, you wouldn’t be able to see any beehaw content, right?
I’m genuinely still trying to figure it all out still.,
I believe beehaw only degenerated from lemmy. If you’re on kbin you can still see both.
Even if people do go back after the 30th, killing off Apollo, RIF, Bacon etc. will drastically cut traffic to Reddit. I use the desktop version maybe once a week and it’s barely for 10 minutes. All of my traffic went through Apollo. Good luck with your ad rates when your traffic plummet.
I’m going to chime in, but fair warning, it’s just what I think, so I could be wrong.
The .social doesn’t actually mean it’s only for social things. It’s similar to a .com or .org. We can put anything we want up on it, similar to Reddit. We can have threads about non-sense similar to r/askreddit, or very detailed discussions similar to r/askhistorians or r/science.
I believe at the moment kbin and lemmy aren’t talking to each other, or if they are, it’s more complicated than it should/will be in the future. The whole point of these sites is “federation”, each is its own little mini-group/site/“Reddit”. Like the US is made of states. At the moment I’ve heard kbin federation is either turned off or not working, so believe the borders are closed. But eventually it’ll be turned back on and we will be able to visit other federated sites/places like lemmy and mastodon.
At the moment I think the big difference is the UI and how things look on your originating site. But as things grow moderation and content will also be a difference. In theory maybe you don’t like the way the gaming part of kbin is moderated but you like lemmy’s, you’ll be able to see posts and visit that site through kbin one day.
Also, a magazine on kbin is basically a subreddit. You subscribe to it, like you would a magazine. Then you can see the posts. Boosts are apparently like following a hashtag on Twitter, but I never did Twitter, so I don’t know exactly.
Sometimes no service is better than bad service?
