And of course the obligatory eff spez.
Sad to see all of this happening
"Memes are good formats for taking complex ideas, then condensing them into something that is easy to digest and distribute"
Wow... that guy actually thinks that you can use advice animals to convey complex ideas. I'm at a loss for words.
This was inevitable, unfortunately.
It was only a matter of time...
I called it, had a feeling they would lol
fuck reddit, all thanks to spez and reddit admins
Hey. Will you look at that. Any interest in reddit just disappeared. Gg spez.
Off topic, who owns/runs the servers here and how does it make money? I'm new I'm curious.
I asked about this.
Around ~180 euros a month for the server they were renting to run this Lemmy instance. Anybody can host though and any member of a Lemmy can see content and interconnect with other instances.
I was looking into potentially hosting my own Lemmy for my friends and I because the cost would be more manageable.
I'd imagine if people started doing that it would decentralize the costs and the administrative overhead.
similar to old usenet and fidonet, volunteers, there have always been people happy to help run hardware and help make the commons a thing. people were lured away from the gardens and parks by digital theme parks and shopping malls, where the users become customers.
people wonder "how can it possibly work"
email works great! same concept.
It was sort of expected, unfortunately. Let's see if they keep doing it to other subs and how things will go if they keep removing mods.
I figured this would happen
Trying to make the change easy.
