Reddit is dead
Besides relevant search results i stopped going to reddit completely for here. I went there today to see their thoughts on this matter, just to not see it mentioned in hot or top at all.
I sort of miss the more ‘niche’ but non techie / nerdy communities but just find myself reading books again, which is also less stressful.
I too have been reading more. I kinda miss the random tidbits i picked up from hours of reddit though, but being only on lemmy is way healthier.
i’ve been using rdx.overdevs.com - it’s a great way to read comments on mobile with a great UI, and you can import your list of subscriptions in a .json file. The only issue is that you can’t use it to post, so it’s read-only. I view that as a feature and not a bug.
Commenting to save for later - great tip
Yeah, it’s rough how only certain big subreddits moved here and have regular users.
Now the big ones feel niche, and the niche ones… well, nobody engages.
Desperate
Isn’t this copying Twitter again?
This is a good way to kill any sense of genuine community on your app.
I wonder how much they’d pay me for my 40k karma…five bucks? Six?
Buncha horseshit
*1 cent
Yeah, once you get to a certain amount of karma, you roll over into the cents, eventually going negative and you owe them now!
Wait that’s the Unity model
I bet this will be as lucrative as twitch streaming.
So us leaving did work :)
That’s hilarious. Was this the plan all along or was this more of a reactionary thing? I think it’s a mix of both.
What could possibly go wrong?
So many limits and restrictions, including getting ten gold a year, to cash out. I don’t see reddit having to give out much money here.
No thanks. I’m not in it for the money… or the empty promise of money.
Who says there’s no innovation in tech companies today? lol
Is there an app with minimal unobtrusive advertising?
Oh my god they did it, they actually did it. So many years of jokes and they actually did it lmfao
I hate this so much
I’d hate it if I was chained to reddit - but I’m not, so lol!
