    I wouldn’t.

    That website is confusing to the average user and makes no sense. Linking directly to an instance, doesn’t matter which, gives them a familiar UI to Reddit, and allows them to click “sign up” without issue. From there they can learn about instances and join a different one.

    join-lemmy.org is confusing, and makes it seem like it’s some software you download to the average user.




  • Perhaps the military should have a system in place to not allow emails to be sent outside of very specific TLDs if it’s that sensitive? And perhaps have an automated contact book, instead of relying on someone typing out the to: address manually to be able to make that mistake in the first place?

    Seems like some very basic security measures for something so serious.

    Oh that’s really annoying. All of the obvious hate for the official app aside, why would Reddit think it’s okay to take content and plaster a banner on it? I imagine people who uploaded nudes or original art were pissed.



  • I used Boost until Reddit shut it down, and I must say, that has not been my experience.

    Reddit is a shell of what it was before. /r/All and /r/Popular showed absolutely nothing. The most random subreddits would pop up, and have like 200 upvotes. The front page was so boring and blank.

    When subs started coming back, they limited posts, so you’d get like 1 post per day instead of 50-100. Some subs turned into posting memes only, or pics of only one thing/person.

    Reddit was absolutely harmed in this. I was already preparing to leave, but Reddit actually became really boring and useless that last month to the point where I rarely opened the app.

    Have you seen America lately? Them removed drive around in their truck flying their flag with a vinyl decal of their flag on their back windshield, wearing a flag hat, shirt, and shorts, with sunglasses with their flag, blasting their anthem, with their lawn chairs in the back.

    EDIT: omg… lemmy can edit my comment and censor stuff when I click post? That’s concerning.



    • No ads.
    • Background play.
    • Download videos
    • YouTube Music Premium included

    First one makes it worth it for me. Have you seen how many ads some videos have? It’s insane. Not interested in watching 8+ minutes of ads in a 45 minute video.

    I know there are plugins, alternative apps, etc. to get the same stuff free, but I just prefer paying and never having to worry about any apps or plugins breaking. I just know it’ll be a perfect experience every time.
