Their rules are on their front page.

Edit: OP said this:

I’m literally just responding to it. Thanks for the downvotes 🤡
just did Times Radio Tech Report on Jensen and his alleged girlfriend, saying all the stuff in yesterday's vid/post but repeatedly lol
technical disaster, isaac was on hotel wifi and it was barely viable

It was always a myth that young voters, in particular Gen Z men, were galvanized into becoming Republicans in 2024
The much-ballyhooed GOP hold on this demographic was a mirage, a temporary phenomenon born of outrageous lies and media manipulation.
Young people's eyes now are open. And by the U.S. presidential election in 2028, the combined Millennials and Gen Z population will pass 50%. We'll be the mainstream of American politics—progressive politics.

I stopped secret santa after 2 years in a row of not getting a gift. People would sign up to get free stuff essentially and never send out anything. Kinda ruined it for me to be reminded that people are generally shitty
Something we've certainly noticed about this particular morale-draining era is there seems to be a real drive to create websites centered around a shared human experience and long may it continue.
Me and Drew are doing an Ironman run of Divinity: Original Sin 2, where if we die, the run ends. It's going up on YouTube as weekly videos, but they go up on my website straight away.

@xenogon many, but my latest track (by my alter-ego sknot) qualifies: https://sknot.fr/what-will-it-take/index.html
@xenogon but if I may be so bold, my classic on the subject is in French and has a video.

Fwiw, one can be a Marxist Leninist and think Russia’s government sucks. It is anything but Marxist or Leninist.
I know you didn’t mean that, but figured it needed to be said.
Chip in for iPhanpy’s $99 Apple tax!
To keep iPhanpy on the App Store (and AltStore), I need to renew my Apple Developer account yearly. The price is USD $99 per year, and while I'm covering this expense myself for now, any contributions to help offset the costs are appreciated!
iPhanpy started as a way to scratch my own itch of wanting the best Mastodon client to be treated as a first-class citizen on iOS. A lot of people shared that same itch, so it was published to the App Store, and I've been updating it periodically ever since.
Any value exceeding the $99 target will be sent to @phanpy directly, as my job's just a repackaging and Phanpy is what deserves all the support ;)

size is not what made reddit bad. commercialization is.
cross-posted from: feddit.org/post/37870004
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.

it’s entire like that.
people’s tolerance for differences has degraded to the point what was once previously considered a difference of opinion is now considered ‘hate speech’.
the viewpoints that many folks have normalized today also, would have been considered totally insane 10 or so years ago. people are far more radical, and far more intolerant, and many lemmy users are here precisely because of their radical views they use to abuse others.
my heyday on reddit in the 2010s I was a part of a lot of diverse communities that simple could not exist in 2026. the majority of folks would be banned for offending users and violating the political ‘truths’ so many people cling to here on lemmy. i also watched in real time as my communities were invaded by these values and the tonal shift in content and interactions went from easy and fun and diverse to very serious and homogeneous. the ‘fun police’ came and basally reported friendly interactions in the name of ‘justice’, because as outside observers they saw in-jokes as abusive and awful.

Imagine being an adult human person with an education in something and a job that pays you money, and thinking Reddit is some sort of leftwing conspiracy. You literally had Ghislaine Maxwell moderating some of the biggest subs in the entire site and this guy thinks they’re leftists. Amazing.
Down here on planet earth, Reddit is not leftwing
One thing that has shocked me is the amount of AI sites that have cropped up for WoW Forever. You used to be able to quickly search and get actually good written articles top of the search results for WoW. Now it’s AI drivel.
