Remember to leave a review and uninstall.

Thats a fair take on the situation. Just hope everyone stays wary of the situation. I wouldn’t put it past instagram/facebook to try to feed ads all across the fediverse.

Federating with a mega corp is such a terrible idea. They aren’t here to make friends. They’re here to make money off of all the hard work this community did. All YOUR hard work. They aren’t going to settle for a slice of the pie. Some way or another, they WILL try to take over.

People have left twitter/reddit because of corporate bullshit, and now lemmy and the fediverse are going to just welcome them back with a big hug? Might as well delete your account and head back to those two platforms, since the fediverse will just because another corporate controlled entity.

Reminds me of all the linux distros.

I imagine the surge in the fediverse has the linux community frothing at the mouth. Moving away from privatized software to open source, a step closer to ushering in the mythical year of the linux desktop.

Oh I didn’t mean that as a repost. I mean I actually saw that on the app store a few days ago.

Another thing about the lower population is that you don’t have people trying to needlessly karma farm. All those addicts couldn’t leave behind their treasures trove of 1 million updoots, so they stayed on reddit.

Because of that, you have many more people here posting about stuff they’re passionate about. No rage-bait articles or massive amounts of doomerism posts. It’s refreshing to have more organic content being shared.

Saw that days ago. You missed the chain of 7-10 reviews that said “OK” all conveniently on the same day.

Report then, and at the very least, make them as unhelpful.

I think thats more so a symptom of people trying to bypass apple’s attempts to remove bad reviews.

And ofc apple is using their platform to remove and suppress low ratings. Its so dam suspicious that the app has essentially only 5 star ratings now. 4.8 out of 5.

This is an actual case where 1 star reviews are completely valid.

More good news for steam deck owners. Can’t wait for v2!

I started to slowly realize this with the blackout. I tried using twitter and Deviant Art more, and found them to be a lot better since I could see more cool fan art.

While I still like my reddit home feed, popular and all just suck. Its mostly all rage posts made to generate outrage. I see so much negative stuff from /r/Antiwork or /r/Politics. I signed up for cat photos. I’m not here to listen to how our world is so garbage for the 100th time.

Will this realistically go anywhere? I have a strange feeling that this’ll just get swept under the rug. I hope it doesn’t turn out like that. Ideally, I’ll like to see some charges/legal proceedings brought up right ahead of their IPO.
