It was pretty funny that I learned about the price increase from a Youtube ad, for a subscription that I have never wanted, while watching on my 2nd gen iPad Mini, which cannot use the Youtube app.

Hi! I’m just jumping in here to say that this is the first time I’ve seen a full rainbow thread of discussion on Lemmy and this is amazing. Thank you for this quality discussion!
Well yes, that is your opinion. What I’m saying is that you’re not exactly making a compelling argument. The people who agree with your viewpoint most likely already did before reading your comments, and those who didn’t agree will continue to disagree.
What you could do to be more helpful, is to give real examples of “great freedom-oriented software projects” that failed, and share your thoughts about what it was about those projects that led to their downfall.
I am on board with creating a better system for the future internet, but we disagree on the methods of doing so. I believe that more transparency is better for the future, and I’m open to hearing others’ opinions on this subject. But when you call everyone crazy for their views, then assume that everyone disagreeing with you is burying their head in the sand, and you insinuate that I don’t have a right to be here if I don’t share your views, well it’s certainly not helping your credibility in any way.
Well first you came in here calling everyone insane. Then you said “we will be better off just using Facebook/Reddit/Twitter”. And now you think we should help you come up with solutions to your problem, because you think this platform will fail.
i upvoted you with shame because you’re silly! 😆
I get what you’re saying and I don’t disagree. But there’s people who are openly disrespecting Reddit (which I am fine with) and then there’s people openly disrespecting ANYBODY (which I am not fine with). To me, it felt like people were just lurking and waiting for an opportunity to hate on something/someone. As others have pointed out, maybe it was always like this. But it definitely feels worse to me.
Ah, it was the comments on the new Atelier Ryza anime that I saw. If you want to try a social experiment, just go to any post about the anime and say something either for or against “thighs”.
Maybe it was always this bad and I just walked in at the wrong time. The content is not the issue, it’s the people in the comments, and I saw no attempts to moderate any of it. Either way, I didn’t like what I saw, so I left.
good, because i downvote with pride! :D
ooh that was a fun read!
The overall quality of content on Reddit has changed significantly since July 1st. It has become a safe space for all of the worst people on the internet to gather and thrive in awfulness together. Anime subs are flooded with pervs openly sexualizing children and calling for porn. Music subs are filled with misogynists looking for reasons to say disgusting things and hate on young women artists. Any attempt at having a reasonable discussion is downvoted into oblivion. Moderators are either absent or they post generic botty-sounding messages like, “Please be civil” while not actually moderating anything. It’s incredibly frustrating and it’s driving away all of the regular people who just want to enjoy their content and have on-topic discussions.
LOL rich person goes after a non-profit organization. yeah you show em! 🙄
