It shows up on the main feed because you people won’t stop bitching and pining about it like an ex that you can’t stop talking about to everyone within earshot.
I use it because there are two communities I still want to see, one is a kebble sub, and the other has torrents which are easier to find than going to a torrent site.
Be the change you want to see in the world. I loved r/writingprompts, and the one on Lemmy is practically dead except for me posting a prompt about every day or so. I've been tossing memes from my collection into different communities just to get content out there too.
In other words, “I’m not willing to inconvenience myself even in the slightest to stand by the principles I claim to hold”. You want to have your cake and eat it too.
If your idea of fun is constantly complaining about something that you supposedly moved away from because it was terrible, please post any events or parties you may be attending to this comment so that we may all avoid them.
I urge everyone to accept this, then flag every email as spam and just have it move to junk, that's what I do on sites that enable predatory things with email
I'm still adjusting to lemmy where very few people are trying to be edge lords. It keeps surprising me to read through the comments on a controversial topic and there's only a few of them, and they're always very heavily down voted.
Considering I took a suspension for "report abuse/harassment" for reporting someone threatening violence against trans people before I left reddit I think they are intentionally trying to encourage bigotry on the platform.
This might be a server side error, actually. Here’s a comment from someone on r/redditmobile:
“For me, it displays the “no notifications” prompt. I think there is a server/app error that is causing notifications to not display. The “enable notifications and email” pop ups that occur when checking the activity screen might display instead of the “no notifications” box might appear if you do not have them enabled.”
I can’t believe people on here use the official Reddit app that’s beyond trash. I visit Reddit once a week and it’s to the “old” subdomain with an adblocker.
Stop rewarding corporations for their piss poor behavior and decisions.
It sucked before too. Certain types of notification were only viewable in the app. If you had one, it would give you an orange envelope on the mobile site, but nothing new could be seen inside. And it wouldn't even tell you what's happening so I just wrote off the entire notification system as broken. So if I got a reply on Reddit I wouldn't know because there's no indication.
I still won't ever install the app and I'm now less likely to do so because I hate push notifications.
this is the problem with putting a dying star at the center of social media. It's like a white dwarf, heading for a black hole. That's physics. It's inevitable. And then we, the audience, we get sucked into that black hole. Are you with me? And the only way to stop it is to not put a dying star in the center of social media. Now, reddit is a dying star, a supernova. And when it explodes, It will have amounted to nothing
It amazes me that people still use that horrible app, while authors just constantly fuck users, and make their experience utter shit, while showing a fuckton of ads.
For the single community i still want to participate in on reddit i use their msobile website. Its not good, but not as bad as people make it out to be if you just wanna spend a few minutes of reading and commenting.
