I mean to be fair, I imagine when communities were in blackout things were looking dire. I haven’t been to reddit since, but I imagine things are pretty much back to normal? So it’s clear he can sort of spit on the reddit userbase how much he wants. People will still come back.

They are, but change is scary. And many will likely lose their jobs - especially those who refuse to learn how to use it.

It’s not all sunshine and rainbows for creatives currently, but it isn’t all dystopia either. A regular schmuck could never produce the same work as a professional, even with AI.

Sure, you can pump out a bunch of stuff, and some of it might look really good, but in the end, if you want precision, you’re going to want an artist.

I mean, surely New Vegas was pretty much the only Bethesda Rpg that didn’t need a shit ton of mods to be playable? Haha

The funny thing is, if reddit’s app wasn’t such a raging piece of garbage, I might have considered staying. But because it’s such a putrid waste of space I literally just cannot use the site any more.

When RIF goes, so does reddit for me. I primarily use the site on my phone, so a good app is vital. And if none exists, then, well… What to do?

Then again, if it wasn’t this, then I am sure they have removed old.reddit instead. And for the few times I am on my PC to look at reddit, I would not have been able to stomach it.

TLDR; the reddit app is genuinely an affront to all things sacred in the world.

The trailer looks great, but I know better than to trust trailers at this stage.

Skyrim is popular because of its modding capabilities. I would have never touched it after the first 60 hours if it didn’t have a great modding community.

If you want a similar cow to milk, you have to be prepared to invest into creating good modding tools.

The lack of a mobile app is what’s keeping me from trying kbin.social right now.

Alright, but functionally, for a reddit refuge, which one is “better”?

Edit: and what’s Mastodon?

It’s a bit hard to subscribe to different instances if you’re on a separate server etc. I hope it gets easier. Once you’re subscribed though, it feels like reddit pretty much. Just hope the saints that post content start using Lemmy.
