As an Iranian, yeah sounds about right. The Ayatollah is so full of shit. With that said please be sure to be careful to not be racist. The Iranian people are all great people, it is the government who is evil.
Im having the same problem and it really annoys me. Makes finding/ interacting with new content a pain in the ass. I either have to look at the some posts over and over again on local or try to catch interesting posts flying by in all
Also an 11 year Redditor here haha.
I got my start browsing rage comics on iFunny and 9GAG, then began browsing Reddit around 2010/11. I finally made my account in 2012. I too watched as Reddit became overrun with bots. I watched as summer Reddit stopped ending and became the norm, people responding in comments with corrections and more information lessened, the obvious astroturfing increased, obvious propaganda took over almost all the defaults, and most importantly, they started shutting down subs that might possibly maybe make them look bad for an IPO.
They desecrated the grave of Aaron Swartz on spit on his name by removing him as a co-creator of Reddit. The cartoonishly evil decisions came one after another and I've had enough as well.
Voat didn't stand a chance because the people who were migrating over were lurkers.
I genuinely believe in Lemmy because this time, it's the mods. The people that actually keep the site running.
Fuck Reddit, fuck u/Spez, go Lemmy
The problem is not all conversations are either sharing an interesting link or deep conversations about life, the universe, and everything. What if I just want to give my opinion on a pie recipe I liked, but want to say more than "damn that shit was good!". Twitter stifles all forms of conversation, it's a site dedicated to one liners and quips. Even what I'm saying now is more than 250 characters.
They just want to be the ones in power so they can indiscriminately shit on anyone. As a brown man I'm deeply uncomfortable. I'm seeing a lot of similar rhetoric thrown around after 9/11 that made my life a living hell for a while. Frick
ope, I don't know how it got turned upside down and don't know how to fix it :(
I think zoomed in pictures of your pet is the funniest genre of pet pictures out there. Share your photos, I love to see them!
I don't even like Bud Light, it's a damn shame such a mediocre beer became the focus of a silly controversy. I started buying it when I went on beer runs just to show my support haha
This post right here has convinced me that Beehaw is something special. It makes me so happy to see the community respected in this way
I just saw all the icons switch over to the new, bee themed ones. I love it! The old icons were cool, but having it all black and white made it feel a little cold. I also like that they're hexagons (bestagons).
Good work Aaron and the Beehaw team!
Oh god, I shouldn't have looked. Their idea of free speech is posting obvious propaganda and shitting on minorities. Classic
Eco-drag queen Pattie Gonia hosted her third-consecutive Pride celebration in Yosemite National Park, specifically for park employees.
No matter how hard you try, you can't ban the good vibes with drag events! So nice to see so many queer rangers as well
Senator Bum Cuckets @beehaw.org I'm a bi cloud engineer that likes beer and good news. Never actually written a bio before idk
