Because free software aligns with leftist ideals?

Good to hear! Hopfuly a new generation of kernel contributors comes out of this.

I miss lemmy.ml before the reddit API changes. Not nearly as many bootlickers.

Most socialist states are better after their revolutions as opposed to before. The USSR went from a borderline feudal society to putting people in orbit in 50 years. Additionaly, socialist states outperform capitalist ones in similar wealth categories.

There are better ways of doing this such as this, or if you value your money, a chain.

Good old UNIX philosophy

Operating Systems are lame, I use butterflies like a real programmer

I don’t know the full story but a lot of Lemmy devs/early adapters were Marxist-Leninists who kind of got drowned out by the more liberal Reddit users. I was a (very) passive lurker for a while so I only know a little bit of the story, namely that Lemmy used to be a lot further left. Someone who has been more engaged back then would be more helpful than I.

Honesty, I don’t think I really like upvotes and downvotes at all. My favorite system is Discourse where the only sort option is old -> new and you can provide reactions (heart, thumbs up, etc…) that don’t change the sort at all. This lets you follow the discussion as it happened & gauge engagement yourself.

No system. The goal isn’t Reddit 2, it’s a federated link aggregator.

Soon? This has pretty much already happened with lemmygrad

IPs rotate too often and it would only allow 1 vote per modem.

I don’t get why the Logitech controller is so focused on. I get that it’s probably not the right controller due to it’s age and wireless only nature but COTS parts are often more reliable than in-house ones. The lack of certification as you mentioned is a much larger issue.

Hasn’t capital been trying to get rid of free software for a while? Isn’t free software an antithesis to for-profit software most of the time?

It is wholly necessary. They will start massive data mining operations if they join, harming users of all instances.

The bot problem is probably domestic. Reddit has much more to gain from artificially driving engagement than any “foreign adversary”.

Honesty I think the big political subs are incredibly bot infested. Political content is an amazing way to make people mad and get them to spend more time on a platform, increasing engagement and letting reddit deliver more ads. It’s not like it would be the first time they used bots to drive engagement and make communities look bigger.

How much could they get fined for this?

So Reddit is going to start using scabs for mods? This can’t go wrong in any way possible…
