No user of Reddit is powerless. Every single user of Reddit has the power to fuck with Reddit in whatever legal way they want, and they also they have the power to quit using Reddit.

He’ll be remembered for breaking rules yes, but he won’t be remembered “as an innovator”.

It’s meant to be a decentralised version of Twitter. I think it was originally made by Twitter but is now a separate company.

But I don’t think it uses the ActivityPub protocol that Lemmy, Kbin, and Mastodon use, so it won’t be interoperable with them. Also, it’s invite-only for the moment. So if you want a decentralised Twitter-like experience right now, you could use Mastodon.

Meta is a capitalist social media company and they seem to be doing okay. Facebook might be uncool with the kids these days but it’s still massive. And Instagram and WhatsApp are still very popular.

I think the difference between Meta and Reddit is that I bet Meta would issue some sort of apology and carefully crafted PR if they found themselves in Reddit’s current situation. But Reddit doesn’t even seem to care about angering its users, which just feeds the anger more.

Just took a quick look at your profile and I notice this:

the US is building a geopolitical tool next to Russia’s borders (obviously against Russia)

Yeah you’re a vatnik.

They might keep those users more engaged with this new app though. The Twitter format might be more successful for facilitating outrage and arguments than the Facebook format is.

And more engagement means more adverts shown and thus more revenue.

Well if only official Apple batteries will work, then that means Apple will jack up the price to something ridiculous, because they’ll be the only option for a battery.

So hopefully third party batteries would work as well. I think third party batteries work in iPhones at the moment. So if we’re able to install them much more easily then that would be very good.

Every country should do this. It’s just a shame we have to wait until 2027 to see these phones.
