I torched all my content. In hindsight I should’ve left a way for people to contact me in case I’d posted a solution to a problem. But it’s too late now.
I pretty much left right after the digg redesign which turned the site into a tabloid. More than a decade ago.
I currently have a similar setup (ESP32, BLE Sensors with ESPHome). Only problem is my sensors are Cr2032 and they go through a shit ton of batteries.
Is there a write up somewhere on how to get these working? I’d like to replace all mine!
The old Reddit site straight up shows more relevant info. The space on the page where it shows people’s comments (or text in case of self/ask type posts) is substantially bigger, compared to the “new” Reddit page which is clearly designed to optimize ad impressions.
Digg didn't turn into Reddit overnight.
That’s not how I remember the last days of Digg. The redesign happened and it was more like a tabloid news site than a the familiar user-submitted voted content in a list format we’d all grown to love. It was a virtually overnight change, unlike Reddit.
Reddit on the other hand, the changes are all mostly under the hood. The “default” subs are full of users who use new Reddit experience in the web / the default app. The number of users that use old Reddit / third party apps are exceedingly tiny but very vocal.
Based on that, my hypothesis is that not much will change with Reddit for a long time. It won’t be a swift downfall like the last few days of digg were. Most, if not all of my friend circle still use Reddit and simply don’t care about what they’re doing to their mod base. Personally I can’t in good conscience continue using a website that treats its most prolific users and moderators so poorly.
Same here - I had to click on "Log In" which takes you to the actual login page (not just the user/pass field at the top right that you get on the main homepage) and that worked for me.
Really easy. I assume when you say “social media” website you mean Reddit. Reddit was a website I’d browse to kill time when I was bored to find amusing content. Thanks to their recent policy change and their crappy treatment of their users, I torched my 10+ year old accounts and moved over basically overnight. Plenty of like minded individuals have done the same in the past couple months it seems. The fediverse has reached critical mass.
The core of Reddit were their users and the mods who volunteer their free time to look after the site, and they shat all over them. Killed the golden goose as it were. I’m a little surprised as to how many people (especially mods) are still hanging around over there.
You are awesome - well done on kicking it.
I added graph.facebook.com to my pi-hole’s black list as a regex entry
Yes, but did you clear the DNS cache on your device after doing this? Once the DNS lookup is done it doesn’t matter what you’ve done on your pihole. The IP is cached and pihole will not even see the query.
They’re not selling any because everyone has one already and they never break down!
