Well said. It’s easy to say “let that shithole burn” for me, as a person who just used it for entertainment and mild education. But there are integral support communities that I hate seeing suffer.

Honestly during the day I personally find light mode easier to read. I understand this seems uncommon but the contrast “feels” better. I use the “True Tone” on iPhone though which makes the whites not so stark and blinding.

I think that’s more an issue of design. Apollo made it pretty clear there were collapsed comments.

A leap forward from the Switch, yes. I think they were saying the “Switch 2” will not be a leap forward in the general sense of what’s available.

That’s really scummy of Stitcher. Wow.

And I totally get the anti IHR monopoly thing!

Thank you for explaining your feelings. :)

May I ask why? I never used Stitcher but a few podcasts I listen to had premium on it. And why do you dislike IHR? Several podcasts I listen to are IHR productions. :(

The turn signal video is what got me too! After that one I’ve watched videos on so many things I didn’t think I’d care about at all. His chest freezer and heat pump ones have also directly influenced my life.

I watched that video (twice) before ever owning a dishwasher. I bought a house this year which has one, and if I hadn’t watched his video I would have continued hand washing, believing it to be better! I live by myself so it does feel silly having to wait days before I have enough of a load, but he’s right even that days-old stuff comes off fine.

Keep in mind too, that even with the paid API usage to the best of my knowledge the 3PA still will not have NSFW/porn content in the feed. How many people are going to be willing to spend $5-10/mo while also having reduced content?

That worked for me, thank you.

I much prefer kbin to lemmy so I really appreciate you putting in the effort! I put myself on the alpha list and I look forward to it. :)

HobbyDrama. I wouldn’t have anything to contribute so I haven’t started it myself, but I really enjoyed reading the in depth writings about niche hobby blowouts.

Same, I had all 4 extracted and the next day I wasn’t happy but depending on the concert I probably would have been ok the next night.

On mobile, if you click the kbin logo when you’re at the top of the screen it will create an in-window “pop up” of sorts that brings that bottom magazine footer to the top so you can block (or subscribe) without scrolling. At least that’s how I do it.

and whether the fees Reddit makes of API access makes up for it.

Are there any 3PA that are even able to afford them? I got the vibe the fees weren’t ever meant to actually end up being paid, but were meant in a roundabout way to block 3PA by pricing them out.

I don’t think you need an invite for kbin! You may be thinking of tildes?

Comment OP meant it more like “dawg” like “Yo dawg, wassap?” But made a joke about “lawyer, dawg” and “lawyer dog”. :)

Yeah I’m on kbin and I’ve been getting Lemmy stuff for a few days now.

Yeah, it was hard enough for me to walk away from my small hobby subs as a user, I can’t imagine the difficulty as a moderator. They’re usually some of the most invested in the subject to want to become a moderator in the first place, and then they’ve devoted all the time and energy to it for the love of the community. I don’t envy them either.

I miss my niche chill subs that I don’t think I’ll ever see come here, as they were already small on Reddit so I don’t imagine enough people will be “here” to make it a viable community. But I don’t miss browsing popular subs and all the top comments being the same jokes, often literally just the same joke? I know all of Reddit isn’t the same group but it’s kind of funny Reddit as a whole mocked things like “the narwhal bacons at midnight” but then would be ok with other, newer, repeat gags just because they effectively said “hey we’re a part of the same thing and I/we show that by all proving we ‘get’ the joke”.
