Good thing we don’t have anyone infiltrating our favorite communities on Lemmy to market a movie, like the Golden Globe winning, Oscar nominated sensation of summer 2023, “Barbie”, now available on Blu-ray and select streaming services!
(Watch the Oscars on Sunday please.)
I haven’t been paying attention. I can’t believe it’s so soon. Are you nominated for anything, movie superstar Margot Robbie?
Technically, yes, for “Best Picture”, which is very much a team effort.
But no to “Best Actress”. 😢
All we get on Lemmy is the dumbest tier of Russian shills pretending to be communists to help Republicans, which is a really surreal thing to type out.
On some level, I kind of long for a more innocent time when the most malevolent force was just some Sony viral marketing pushing “PlayStation exclusive” posts to the front page ahead of a game launch.
Hey wait a minute, something doesn’t smell right here!
Contrary to my lovely wife’s Chanel’s New Eau De Parfum™, which smells diving - almost as good as her Calvin Klein deep euphoria™.
Anyways, color me impressed, Oscar Nominated Producer Margot Robbie!
Which is easy with my wife’s new Splat™, 100% vegan hair dye, made with baobab extract and formulated with quinoa!
Ok that’s all the Margot Robbie sponsored products a 10 second google search shows me ;)
This post entertains me almost as much as Raid: Shadow Legends, which I play all the time on my… um, consoles? PC? Mobile? Gaming device! I always play it on my gaming device which I definitely use to play Raid: Shadow Legends without interruptions. All day.
How do we stop
the enshittification
of everything?
Build alternate platforms and products whose goal isn’t profit. Aka, FOSS!
And then overthrow capitalism, but that one is a bit more ambitious.
It’s cliche but it all starts with you. Don’t tolerate it to begin with. Have a moral compass that understands that infinite growth is inherently flawed and there’s nothing wrong with something remaining niche. Remember in all your interactions every day that it is always a person first and what they represent second.
It is headed the way of quora. Where almost every response is a marketing post. Those who stayed on reddit aren’t bothered by this anyways.
Subreddits like r/BuyItForLife is very vulnerable to this
Once they went public this was bound to happen (more).
For just $3.99 you can shit post anything you want!
I was active in another platform for a specific older car. It was 5-6 of us who mostly spent time answering questions from people trying to keep their car running. Lots of detailed specific responses. Then the advertisers started to be offered user accounts that allowed them to spam post the whole platform. One in particular would post ads, they look like posts from a user though, every couple days, for a scanner that doesn’t work for our cars. So I started calling these posts out as you can comment on them. I told the admin they can tell the marketers to fuck off or I am gone. No one to answer questions, no one is going to show up to ask them. They rather have advertiser pay them $30/mo to spam it than have it function. On lemmy, I mod this community now.
About to?
“Officially” about to.
About to? They’ve been there for a while now
Is there anything we can do to speed up adoption of Lemmy? Like everyone else, I don’t love what’s going on over there, but all my communities are still highly active on it.
Post more. Field of dreams, yo.
Make this place enjoyable for people even if you don’t personally share all their values and beliefs?
Lemmy is way too much of a echo chamber to appeal to most people
Hahaha ha fuck you reddit.
