🤣 good luck reddit. I’m not coming back!
how can they encourage acitvity that is not from propaganda bots, when they make it very hard for new users to comment, and will ban or remove comments on the sligthest trigger of thier filters.
I used to create new accounts and pick up some karma on those freekarma4you subs and similar, where people upvote eachother just for karma.
Last time I did this, recently, the account (which was brand new) was shadow banned in multiple different subs that I used to participate, without having had any prior activity on those subs at all.
I can only imagine there is some kind of auto filter shadow banning accounts which post on these karma subs that mods or admins are using now. So it will be even harder for newer accounts to participate, I honestly don’t know how I’d have managed to get karma to comment on any sub any other way.
Reddit is currently feeding fedi new users…
Can’t wait for march MAU numbers
Read the article and it seems very complicated to use reddit. Also I was recently told that 80% of their users are via cell phone vs. PC. I wonder if Lemmy’s numbers are similar regarding users and cell phone
Last PC I bought was a laptop for school in 2020. Now that I graduated, it is a media server. There are only a few things online I can’t do mobile. There was almost nothing I couldn’t do when I had android.
I use a PC for work but am not going to do personal stuff on it.
I am so used to typing in the traditional way and never could get the hang of the 2 finger thing on a phone or Ipad.
