Until capitalism gets so large and unregulated that they can fund and control the government, which is what led to many of those “winner” picks that you describe.

It gets messed up both ways. We have many industries that are degrading because they’ve reached the limits of what they can innovate and instead are trying to find corners they can cut anywhere they can, while having the clout to get away with it.

Almost like glorification of any economic system is bad, rather than using them for their actual purposes.

People keep trying to use these systems forgetting human greed exists and will continue to exist

Isn’t that just…everything?

Like is there anything they aren’t requesting?

I’ll probably give it at least a week, see how things are, and decide from there.

Even then if I do go back probably cut activity to the things that just aren’t available elsewhere at the moment.

Mainly news. Not just world/region but hobby news.

So far just the world/region news is here, which aren’t particularly great discussions if you’re trying not to get hotheaded.

To be fair, if people are properly protesting, the only people who would be checking reddit to respond to that thread are

1. People who don’t know

2. People who didn’t agree with it

I wouldn’t even know the thread exists because I haven’t had reddit open on any tabs.

edit: will say there could be exceptions to that, but that’s just the general idea

I only ever joined Discord for friends. Leaving would mean losing all friends, not even a select bunch. They’re not moving and while some may care that it’s upsetting, it’s a collective bunch that needs convincing. Friends of friends of friends. People aren’t jumping ship for one person to also not have their other friends not jump ship.

Reddit is a community but doesn’t have the more casual chat that friends use (well they have it now, but it was never good).

Discord pretty much has to burn bridges like Reddit did before anyone moves.

can’t you login to lemmy.world, then go join communities on gamingfocus.xyz and still be logged in?

That seems to be how it works for me if I go to communities on the beehaw.org instance. You just change the community search from local to all.

If I recall, a minimum karma was used by some mod bots as a gatekeep of sorts on more official subreddits. But even then I don’t think it was more than to deter very new accounts.

I think it’s kindof hard to find topics, because even if you set a filter the auto refresh ignores the filter. Still waiting for communities to pop up that match tastes.

What does Voat mean in this case then? It’s just like Reddit really.

undefined> EDIT: based on my ratio im not sure I want to continue on this site lmao, I have a feeling its just going to turn into another Voat if this shit keeps up

…Or the people on r/antiwork are here as well and downvoted you for a very bias post to their members?

Like what did you think would happen? This would happen on Reddit as well unless you were on a subreddit that specifically supported your stance.

It’s a bit annoying because even if you set it to “top posts” or any of the sorts, the automatic refresh makes it irrelevant. if I need to step away, i come back and none of the posts are top posts.

edit: I think the refresh moved the posts because this isn’t even the one I was trying to post in…

edit2: No it’s open on this thread as well as the other…is the main page showing sub-threads as well??
