Maybe I’m a pessimist but this is going to really resonate with the people who are “looking forward to AI” because they read headlines, but haven’t actually used any LLMs yet because nobody has told them how.

I’ve enjoyed my time on the fediverse but have been disappointed with the leveling off of growth and lack of participation in niche communities. I still visit Kbin several times weekly, but it isn’t like the old days when I would spend tons of time on Reddit. I have left my old Reddit account redacted and haven’t started using it again, as that time is over. There are some communities and niche interests that unfortunately, it looks like Reddit will always be the main home for since we didn’t hit the critical mass for people to move those communities over here. Because of that, I’ve started a new reddit account (with my real name attached, and started actively participating in those communities). For me, Reddit is no longer a place to anonymously participate in community discussions (because those discussions were becoming increasingly worthless alot of the time), but a place to participate with my IRL identity in communities related to topics or hobbies I care about. The anonymous community stuff is fulfilled by Kbin/Fediverse which I prefer now.

Very disappointed to see my employer on here with a D rating. Internal comms said we were out!

They are “inviting” mods to do even more free work in furtherance of Reddits profitability

This isn’t a problem. This is knowing how to reference community knowledge and technology instead of reinventing various shapes and sizes of wheels

Bigger instances and communities may end up being more PC over the years but I think smaller ones will retain this vibe.

The Beta Band, Vulfpeck, Khruangbin, Holy Hive, Tame Impala, Hippo Campus, STRFKR, Greta Van Fleet

As humans we are biased towards action and forward thinking. From the perspective of where you are heading after completing the turn, it was a U shaped turn

The difference now is that Gab exists and those people have been going over there for a few years now. As long as the fediverse doesn’t become an echo chamber like Reddit I’ll stay happy.

I consider myself so lucky to have been 10 and had this game when it was brand new. It was perfect.

This is great thanks for sharing!

Probably my favorite and most played Mario game of all time. Now I see why they never released it on Virtual Console… this is even better. Can’t wait to play it with my daughters who love the Mario franchise!

Literally if I have an article/photo/video etc to share or just a thought? I’ve only made posts so far, though, no links.

@Kellamity I haven’t played the newest ones (I game on a bootcamped MacBook Pro). But I read good things about Legend and Underworld so I got each of those for .99 cents. I already had anniversary from a previous sale and playing that first. It’s like Legend of Zelda but with ass and titties and guns.

Several of the big subs have switched to a malicious compliance though where they’ve reopened but are nothing like their normal content. It’s not actually against the rules, and seems kind of clever unless I’m missing something?

Here’s a vote for it to be officially known as Fleddit / Rexxit or some variation. Those are hilarious!
