I'm actually reposting my older content here and on lemmy, so it's not a complete loss. Also, all of my posts were image-based, directly hosted on Reddit, that means I cannot redirect anyone here by any means.

I wonder what hurts the guy more, that he was forced to overpay for this dumpster fire, or that everyone can point at him as the reason for the site's failure.

Really liking this trend of making the kbin logo with different styles of 3D models.

Manchild throwing shit at the wall randomly in the hopes one will stick.

That is so cool! Did they show it doing vertical lift off/landing?

Well, the Galapagos are below the Ecuator line, so it kinda counts too.

The problem with YouTube is that free alternatives don't pay content creators. In Twitch's case for example, they are seeing a real threat because Kick is offering tons of money to popular streamers to bring them to their platform.

Reddit doesn't pay to content creators and mods, this makes it easier for competition to take some of their audience compared to YouTube, which to some, is their only source of income.

Decentralized places like this only need to worry about making the joining process much more simplified, there is no need to overthrow Reddit, just make it a viable alternative when users get fed up with their shitty practices down the line.

Let them fight, they might actually learn that being a (good) mod is not a cakewalk.
