LMAO I’m only here because Reddit suck ass
People usually don’t respond well with threats they don’t perceive as harmful, or can’t perceive physically at all. Targeted ads and privacy in general is abstract to many people, and the only time they’ll start responding is if their emails or social medias get hacked due to their infos being sold on the dark web or something like that.
I don’t know anymore, feels like that’s a user-by-user basis. I just moved from Edge to Firefox and it feels exactly as smooth. Perhaps the only time it doesn’t feel as smooth is when I play mahjong on the browser, but other than that, it’s the same exact experience lol.
Maybe it depends on which sub you’re in and the type of people they attract, but in many popular subs I have been in, the whole blackout thing has been a dud and has sent the absolute wrong message to people, blaming the mods powertripping.
Once again, it affects US and the whole thing worked with US because we’re the only ones that care about this shit. The ones that don’t, the ones that use the regular app, who are not aware of the 3rd party apps or even hated the 3rd party apps, who are the majority of reddit users, did not care at all. And we have this bias that we can’t absolutely shake off, that the majority of reddit users agree with us. No, that was not the case at all. We end up sounding delusional as hell.
What we’re doing right now, using a different website to discuss topics and such, is a much more effective way to protest things than just blacking out a bunch of subs.
Except those people went to twitter, Instagram, and tiktok for their memes, news, and funny moments. All the major subs that I subscribed to are back on and people are back as usual there. The blackout was useless and another lazy version of internet activism, and it made people hate the mods instead of Reddit for “power tripping.” Literally made people side with Reddit because of that lol.
People have been saying it but were being ignored for weeks: this blackout thing will not work. And we were correct. It was a useless attempt to try and win over the majority.
Plenty of people use the main app and are the majority of users, and it is what it is. The ones who care about the Reddit API fiasco should move away. That’s the only valid move.
I’ve done it, and everyone else who care should. Leave the ones who are fine with Reddit on Reddit.
An injury prone star? I know some people like to compare his career trajectory to Embiid but nah I don’t have faith in Zion having a healthy enough season to positively affect the team as a whole. It won’t help Dame.
The team as a whole had horrid shooting numbers from 3 but the team played incredible defense and gave it their all. Well deserved!
Where’s Jokic LMAO did he just go home?
Edit: aw he was just chilling with his family lol
Well deserved tho haha
Jokic was great again but this was won by great defensive plays by the whole team. And clutch free throws.
Also Jokic doesnt seem so excited hahaha, classic
God that was a great game. Aside from the refs, this was a slugfest to the end!!’
Wow suddenly they remembered how to shoot FT’s :P
I knew their plan was to make Butler shoot a 3 to get FT’s lol. But that ain’t it right now
Payton sweating so much right now
Spo be like “aight jimmy, go to the 3 and then flop. The refs are on our side right now!!”
Great defense on Jimmy.
Denver being fucked by refs. What’s new, guys haha
Stupidity lmao
Firefox’s user base is apparently been dwindling for a long time now, so the possibility of this browser shutting down due to not having enough funds is getting higher and higher each year. At least, that’s how I interpret it.
