When I used imgur, it had 2 bots, this time last year and a repost detecting bot. I thought that was useful, and the userbase over time got sick of the repost one.

When I used reddit, with all of the different subreddits, every dork on there felt like they needed to create a bot for any niche or joke but they made it opt out, instead of in. That was excessive and i found it annoying.

I hope Lemmy stays closer to the first example, or no bots at all.

Well stop it

With a gesture over to him even.

What is sublinks? An alternative to Lemmy?

Thank you, I didn’t know about aurora and I have a “work” profile on my phone to separate out a few apps using shelter, but i didn’t want to sign into Google play for updates.

How are Linux users handling software that doesn’t exist on Linux. For example I bought the affinity software (photo, designer, etc) and I’d rather not lose that to use gimp or something.

Mines -12% YTD. At least I’m not retiring anytime soon.

It’s a stretch, but i wonder if things like the onion, with us laughing at the insane stories has had any impact on the general reaction to what’s happening now. Like people don’t really care.

That’s what pushes it over into a threat I believe. Just using the other words would normally be fine and protected speech.
