Stockton rush from beyond the grave be like “🤓acksually, it had analog sticks”

The image didn’t load so the alt text was genuinely useful

I hate the fact that I fully understand this. Why the fuck am I so kinky, lol

I have no idea if you’re lying and will never find out, that makes it funnier

At the very least he didn’t bury the lede, I got the idea after he said “we are conservatives that respect the constitution”

Yeah, I get like this. I post all the memes in the world about standing up to fascists but if anyone ever said anything homophobic or transphobic to me I just kinda nod and try to change the subject or just walk away.

the boss move of: just pirating it, at least then you’ll actually have the physical files

🥺😳

Man he’s just cheating with that face and chin shape lol. If I ever tried this shit it’d just be the Chad meme in a dress lol

Omg, I’m so dumb. I never even realized that the ML meant “Marxism-Leninism” i.e. tankieism.

You could also just have a website that 1. Selects a random instance from the ones currently available and up and 2. Shows all instances and whether they are up or down. This would encourage new users to not all pile on to the same instance.

I’m not very knowledgeable about this stuff (what’s a docker? What’s a kubernetes? Lol) but I don’t think as of right now with Lemmy, kbin, etc you can just throw a bigger single server at the problem. Anyways, that’s kinda against the purpose of decentralization anyway. I know you’re supposed to pick a server based on what one you like, rules or whatever but right now they’re pretty much all equivalent (except lemmygrad, lol)

Idk how they can fundamentally misunderstand this (and have been for years). They haven’t cared about mods for years, their official app is complete trash. Reddit was always supposed to be an alternative to twitter/Facebook/Instagram/tiktok, not a competitor. Like take the video player for example. Hardly even works most of the time, and is a clear tiktok clone. Why are they doing that? Tiktok and Reddit could not be more different apps. They can pay mods, Reddit can’t or won’t. I expect soon if they survive this they’ll move towards in house moderation.

Nah, read the AMA. He and Reddit (the company) in general are doubling down. I was hoping it was just anchoring (where the initial price for something is so ridiculously high, any other offer even if it’s more than you should pay seems reasonable). But from his comments, and the Devs’ responses, it’s clear it’s basically just a way to kill the API totally for users, I guess the only possible remaining use for the API is AI training. Tech companies would probably pay that much because it genuinely is worth it to them.

Same. Most things in life I can say I really wasn’t there from the beginning but this I really think I can lol. I hope I just don’t do the “before it was cool” hipster thing
