It reminds me a little of the old internet. I like how relatively small it feels, and that people post content for the sake of the content, not to promote themselves. I haven’t found my usual corners yet, the ones I used to hang out in on older platforms, but I figure that’s just a matter of time. I’m not super nostalgic for the old internet or anything, but it’s nice to find at least a hint of something human-centered somewhere.

I hope it doesn’t fall apart and that it keeps growing.

I was skeptical when I switched to Linux, but then I ditched Windows on my dual boot for good. It was a hugely positive experience, and it really felt like freedom. I’m hoping this will be the same.

And don’t be mad at me if I act totally clueless here sometimes 'cause all that is new to me.

reddit got bad because spez (the reddit admin) restricted API access to the platform for third-party apps, such that people would be forced to use the official app or web UI, both of which display advertisement and collect user data (e.g. scroll behavior).

the reason why this happened is because reddit is a for-profit company and tries to extract money out of the userbase, at the expense of the users.

another example of a bad decision that reddit made was to push a lot of ragebait (“Am I The Asshole?”) because company shareholders want to see “engagement numbers” go up, and if somebody writes an angry reply to a post, that’s “engagement”. but it makes you angry at the stupidity of the “Asshole”, so it makes your day worse. that is another example how reddit makes money at the expense of the users.

size (number of monthly active users) is not what made reddit bad. commercialization is.

we should probably get rid of the “don’t make lemmy grow, it will ruin the platform if we grow” idea.

hearing that jensen huang has tripled the amount of partners he has in just under two weeks.

if these trends continue, i think we need to have a serious conversation about the possibility of jensen huang dating every women on earth.

even in moderate scenarios he may send up with 82% of all leather jackets

@jalefkowit 9.6 point swing from 2024. Nice.

Re Vivek, I heard a rumor that Acton let his call to concede go to voicemail. In her shoes, I’d have ripped him a new, uh, Vivek, so good on her for showing restraint.

I realized that I keep explaining what Bugsy is and how it works, so I figured it was time to document the whole thing. What started as a simple Sentry triager has grown into a fairly substantial project that now tirelessly serves the entire company, with many processes depending on it. So I decided to map it all out.
