The last major holdouts in the protest against Reddit’s API pricing relented, abandoning the so-called “John Oliver rules” which only allowed posts featuring the TV host. It's the official end of the battle. The Reddit protest is over, and Reddit won.
even this tiny civil exchange already makes me happy for jumping the boat. (also was always kinda sad for missing out on the early years of reddit; lemmy have no mo fomo)
I got banned for saying if I saw someone stealing from a store, I’d follow them to their car and cut the valve stems off their tires. Cuz, ya know - vandalizing someone’s car is illegal.
I care because every theft means I pay more the next time I shop. When someone steals from a store I patronize, they’re stealing from me. I was commenting on a post about stealing from Home Depot.
I’m very similar. I actually just used the official app, but just seeing the way they responded made me leave
The fact that spez just bald-faced lied about what was said in his call with the Apollo dev was a huge red flag for me.
Bold faced*
Doesn’t matter*

Huh, TIL. Never sat right with me as a bearded man, perfectly capable of lying, but makes sense that its meant to convey “without a face cover.”

TIL too! My mother always said bald-faced lie to me as a teenager and so when you corrected it to bold-faced I was like … no that can’t be right. Lol
Bare-arsed*
Bare assed lie… I like it.
No. It’s bald-faced.
Bone apple tea*
I just got tired of being on a site that won’t just ban you for saying Nazis should be punched, they’ll ban you for calling them mean names.
nazi shouldn’t be punch?
I don’t think that punch made from nazis would taste very good.

Yo what was the context? Was it a store dedicated to feeding orphans? why would you care?

Somewhere out there in meatspace just after you hit reply, a capitalist just came in his pants.
I got banned from Jnomil about a post on some little shit kid who like to creep under bathroom stalls and kink on people taking a shit.
I suggested a little shot of piss would be corrective. Banned.
But it’s okay for some little shit to invade people’s bathroom privacy.
