They need to stop replacing features with shit. And stop adding shit no one in their right mind would ask for.

m68k · 2020-02-24T23:17:50+00:00

Pretty much China's social credit system. People who are friends with people with a low social credit will themselves have their social credit score lowered. What Reddit is doing is pretty much uncanny.

m68k · 2020-07-30T23:26:14+00:00

Expected nothing less from Redditors.

m68k · 2020-07-12T19:11:41+00:00

Good.

Just in case the child (supposedly) desides to change their mind about what their gender is after birth, because the insane parent (the other parent didn't have a say) surely didn't coach their child to think in such a way.

Also, just to over-complicate terms, just because. :P

At least Japan knows what's up. :P

Most of the Reddit mentions are on /s/WatchRedditDie and /s/MeanWhileOnReddit.

I posted some truth. ;)

Fuck is this woke shit no one asked for? ...Oh wait, it's just more shit no one asked for. Good job Mozilla, keep digging your grave.

Glad things are back up. Shame that server company had no backbone.

I rather play a game where I just shoot stuff, and have the character says things like "It's time to kick ass and chew bubblegum, and I'm all out of gum."

m68k · 2020-01-26T19:52:17+00:00

Thank you, that's a nice list. :)

I've used BitChute, and the only things i didn't like about it were the 480p res, and one time gave me the "one more step" Google Recaptcha. Otherwise, pretty good.

I've also used GVid, but as of lately, I can no longer log in. (Also, it's rank is 1337) :3

I'm currently attempting to try PeerTube, but it feels like I'm learning about Linux for the first time, and trying to understand how to get started. :P

m68k · 2020-09-13T23:31:39+00:00

I used a Windows debloater over a decade ago. I've been never happier using Linux.

m68k · 2020-06-22T22:44:48+00:00

I saw the "one more step" message. NPC's at full blast.

m68k · 2019-11-11T23:24:33+00:00

Good, let another platform rise. Will not miss Today's YouTube.

m68k · 2019-09-08T19:54:16+00:00

Why not just close it. It's a matter of time before they wipe the sub anyway. You give an inch, they'll take a mile.

m68k · 2020-09-05T02:39:11+00:00

They should look into using Matrix/Element, just incase Discord desides to bend the knee.

m68k · 2020-03-31T22:03:48+00:00

Good.

m68k · 2019-11-26T02:51:35+00:00

Nay. I totally dislike anything animating on a web page, though I'm pretty old school. I element-blocked the image background yesterday, as I did on reddit back then since it does what I don't like, animate.

I meant to start a topic on this, but I see one was already started. Regardless, it doesn't affect me much as it would seem, I simply block what I don't like. :)

m68k · 2019-11-10T23:49:39+00:00

I never had any interest in Facebook or Twitter, but I did want to use Reddit. Of course we know what happened to Reddit.

m68k · 2020-08-03T23:03:14+00:00

Nasty fuck.

m68k · 2020-07-21T22:15:16+00:00

They were caught. ;)

m68k · 2020-05-22T22:33:57+00:00

Nothing new here. American companies bending over backwards to appease the communist, while discarding their principles on freedom.

m68k · 2020-05-19T22:51:26+00:00

Thanks, I'll make an attempt to remember. Which shouldn't be too hard, since I rarely have a reason to visit Reddit other than a couple of subs. :)

m68k · 2022-07-17T23:50:44+00:00

I see => as "equals or greater than". Me being someone who programed in assembly, C and BASIC, JS doesn't seem to be something I'd want to learn anytime soon. :P

I'm not seeing mentioned that this was from the same group that did LibreOffice. Just because it has "Libre" in front, doesn't tell me it's from The Document Foundation. :P

Edit: Also, I should note, I have nothing against such a project. Just rather see one that makes good use of a fork, and not fork just to make a statement.

m68k · 2019-12-19T02:15:36+00:00

Quite old news. Regardless, can't expect anything less. Shills will shill.

m68k · 2019-12-17T03:49:44+00:00

I always have cars and pickups trying to run me over when crossing the street (and yes I have the right-of-way FYI), now a self-driving car that intentionally tries to run me over. :P

The bigger they are, the bigger (or slower) the crash. :)

I only look at a few subreddits now, but only as long as the old site design exist.

m68k · 2019-06-30T18:13:40+00:00

Yet more reason to ditch Reddit. That should be a marketing tag line for Saidit. :)

m68k · 2020-07-20T22:38:57+00:00

I'm seeing the same thing. Just the same few (if even more than one) people trying to convince us the site is bad. I suggest ignoring these posts from now on, as I will. :)

m68k · 2020-07-19T17:48:59+00:00

The fact that these people making these bullshit claims, are the same ones who never buy these games in the first place.

You give an inch, they take a mile. Or in this case, they'll destroy within that mile.

I find it's becoming to the point where I can't even tell a man from a woman. I'll see a couple walking by, and unable to tell which is the guy and which is the girl. Of course this isn't often where I live, but once in a while.

Also, I hate these guys with these high pitched voices when talking, namely on radio, but not excluding Youtube. Hurts my ears.

m68k · 2020-07-12T19:15:53+00:00

Another "hate" crime law.

m68k · 2020-07-02T23:05:33+00:00

It may seem righty, since those are the people Reddit kicked off its platform first. As more get kicked from Reddit, it'll become more like the way Reddit use to be.

m68k · 2020-06-27T22:07:03+00:00

That, and you can also catch the "Reddit" virus, which from my scientific made up research will give you an urge to post pics of an object, and claim it has a face.

m68k · 2020-06-22T22:41:40+00:00

If a comment was against Reddit policies, why not remove the comment... Of course, this is just nothing more than Reddit weeding out the wrongthinkers.

m68k · 2020-06-14T21:00:17+00:00

Don't tell Reddit users that... people are born without clothes. :3

m68k · 2020-03-28T17:25:58+00:00

I never switched since I never joined reddit. Though, I did want to join Reddit, but the overpowered mods and mob ruling vote system is what killed it for me. I joined Saidit instead. I should note, even before Saidit, I did join Voat, but that's for another thread. No need to derail this one. :)

m68k · 2020-03-14T20:19:24+00:00

Never heard of Ruqqus, but looking promising that it's viewable with javascript disabled. :)

However, it looks like it uses the same voting system that's used in Reddit, so I expect it to be exploited by mobs.

I didn't read anything, and have no idea what any of this is all about. Should I care? :P

One of the reasons I have no interest in using Cloudflare as a service.

Watch some Louis Rossmann videos to get my point. :)

In the mean time, you can hit the "mute sub" button, to make things a little bit better. :)

Haha, this is fucking great. I totally lost it at the part with Nancy Pelosi.

Clearly, they need to up the ante. Turn that censorship knob up to 11.

Commie mayor or governer allows terror groups to destroy city... Hmm, I so can't see why people would flip. :3

You can't have Twitter without Twits. :3

Don't use your real name on the internet... when possible.

m68k · 2020-05-28T02:25:30+00:00

People need to stop spending money on Reddit's "award" scam, since someone deep in Reddit can simply remove them from a post at will, with no restriction.

m68k · 2020-04-04T20:01:50+00:00

If someone can't create something new, screw up something already made. And you wonder why piracy is a big thing.

m68k · 2020-03-02T02:06:24+00:00

At least they made it easy to type "QWERTY". :3

m68k · 2020-01-09T05:11:42+00:00

No, no no NO! (Caution: Long answer below)

While I encourage people to take a look at Linux, you cannot expect people to just jump cold turkey from Windows 7 to Linux using KDE Plasma. Businesses have software tied to Windows, People will not understand how to do thing the “Linux” way, and making people think Linux is just like Windows will just turn them off more to Linux when they find they can't do things the “Windows” way.

Making the theme for Plasma to look like Windows 7 to make people feel Linux is just like Windows is completely a bad idea. It took me a while to understand how to do thing the “Linux” way (EG: don't run everything in root). I multi-booted between Windows XP and Kubuntu 8.04 for quite some time before I was ready to totally ditch Windows.

Also, people are not “resisting” the move to Windows 10 (rather not understanding why they should update), most people have no clue that Linux even exist, let along know what an OS is. People just buy a computer with Windows on it, and will use it without knowing it was something that was pre-installed. To them, it’s just like a television, it just runs whatever the way it wants to run. They will also not learn how to download an ISO, and write it to a thumbdrive, let along understand what a distro is. Failing to understand that, show the lack of understanding that people are not all power users. It’s like asking a person who drives a car to pilot a rocket, or asking a coal miner to simply learn to code… Yeah, I went there. :3

I put Linux on my mother’s laptop (was Windows 7, and did it not want to update), not because I’m trying to “convert” her, but because that’s what I support. If something goes wrong with the Windows install, I can’t do anything other than reinstall it. Windows XP was the last system I supported, and my previous attempt on fixing a Windows 7 system went sour. Also, I made the desktop environment function nothing like Windows, simply because she already had trouble using the touch pad, and does not understand the concept of “double clicking”. I made the desktop environment as simple as possible to use (XFCE by the way in case someone is wondering).

I also teach people how to use computers, some of which never touched a computer before. Some computers have Windows 7, some have 8, and some were XP 32-bit, which I was given the go-ahead to install Linux at my discretion. (BTW, don’t ask, I will not answer why.) I attempted to make it run like Windows 7, which gets pretty close. But when they load up LibreOffice, the file picker is totally different (EG: the box to enter the filename is on the top rather in the bottom, poor flow IMHO). Thankfully, I don’t have them explore too much, which would show more of an inconsistent UI between systems.

Instead, my advice is to advertise Linux (or Linux with the Plasma desktop environment in this case) as an alternative OS, and educate the public on what Linux is. To try to trick the public on something you cannot provide, will just bite you in the ass in the end.

m68k · 2019-09-25T02:26:52+00:00

Sadly that's true, which is why I comment so little. I can only suggest creating a sub that you can relate to, and perhaps people will come (assuming you advertise your sub).

m68k · 2019-07-31T22:55:07+00:00

I did join Voat about a half year earlier than here, but I only posted there once. Since I rarely logged on to Voat, my account was locked.

Funny thing is, since they now only allow people to view the site logged in, I can now actually log in. WTF :P

m68k · 2019-07-07T19:06:57+00:00

I've been happy with Linux since 2008-ish. I still have to use Windows at work, which reminds me why I made the right decision. :)

m68k · 2019-06-14T22:20:31+00:00

As Saidit gets bigger, DMCA's will get more common. Until people (USA) start directly protesting about the DMCA, expect nothing to change other than more intended censorship.

If it doesn't cause people to panic and continue to watch the news giving the channel an increase in ratings, it's not news worthy.
