@Maajmaaj I think you’re right. Stay sober though. check out reddit r/liberalgunowners there is a huge amount of information for those thinking about becoming armed.

@MicroWave

@syntax Just based on this I’m blocking your instance. That’s my tip for you.

@greenyenergy Public Service Announcement: If you’re interested, you can go to old reddit on your phone browser, log in, and view whatever you want.

@RemeJuan Apparently not. I wouldn’t install or use anything that smacks of Meta for this reason. Its why I left Reddit when Apollo shut down. Big nope for me.

@psychothumbs

@faltuuser Definitely time to grab the popcorn for this one. Hopefully Zuck and Elon damage their respective business to no end. If the jurisdiction of any litigation is California, Elon is going to have an uphill battle.

@ersanmartin I set up my account here during the shutdown protests because I was an Apollo user and before then Reddit was just getting worse. There isn’t anything there that I need and I didn’t feel like sticking around while f u/spez trashed the place so he can cash out and buy his island. On the one hand, I’m not anti-corporate per se but he can monetize someone else. Looking forward, I’m still figuring out Kbin and the fediverse but it feels very refreshing and new. As someone said, its like when the internet was new and great that there are communities that are being established from the ground up and people will, over time, be attracted to that.

@RightHandOfIkaros admins are actively deleting posts that reference alternatives, including Kbin and Lemmy.

@TrinityTek @NotAPenguin

@xptiger wanted to say that the mod team is actively looking for alternatives but as I mentioned they feel that they need much higher functioning mod tools to be able to make the switch

@TrinityTek

@TrinityTek I feel very confident that it is not the mods that took your post down. Like I mentioned my post was taken down by Reddit admin, not the mods. The head mod at LGO has been checking out Lemmy and Kbin as potential alternatives. He is concerned about the lack of mod tools here because they get trolls from everywhere. You can check on the LGO wiki for their approach, but the mods feel like they are fucked once the third party apps end. Recommend you DM him on Reddit. Also, understanding mod tools is beyond my technical capability but the way we can help ourselves is to put the tools in place that will give the LGO mods confidence that we’re a viable alternative. They recognize that gun related subreddits are not in Spez’s plans and there is a community being served that vitally needs help.

@TrinityTek Hi - its not the mods at r/liberalgunowners who removed your post. I’ve been in touch with the mod there and when I made a similar post about Kbin last week it was removed by the Reddit admins, not the sub mods. They wanted to let me know it wasn’t them. Spez has been doing all sorts of shit like that, Its one big reason why I’m done with Spezzit. Post in the m/liberalgunowners magazine here on Kbin-social.

@dismalnow having the code out there that Reddit uses to track accounts doesn’t give me warm fuzzies. I’m not a technical guy but it seems that it would be better if that code had not been hacked and put in the hands of people with malicious intent. I have to defer to others on whether the hack compromises Reddit users’ security.

@Phoeniqz If Reddit is only announcing the hack now then that is very likely going to be a legal problem in a number of US jurisdictions, not to mention EU and others.

@QuietStorm Fishing: it gets you outside, and helps you learn about the natural world as a participant, not just an observer. You don’t need to spend a lot to get started and its often best if you go with a friend. I always practice catch-and-release and the experience is a morning or evening of peace.

@NightOwl the market in body parts, other types of medical samples is shocking. In the biotech research space it’s been going on for 25+ years
