So I signed up for #codium as a free alternative to a #copilot (which I don't trust but saves a lot of googling then flipping between programming languages).

Codium signup bounces me to discord. I don't have a discord account so I think why not. So I go through a stupid ritual of captchas and recognising planets and verification emails and phone OTPs and discord creates an account an then immediately closes and blocks it because I broke their T&C's. So I still don't have a discord account and now they have alienated me.

Facebook, twitter, discord and maybe soon #reddit, the list is growing.

codium is looking useful and has their own #emacs plugin.

Indeed what #Twitch, owned by #Amazon, is doing now, will scare many creators away from their platform.

Louis Rossman is right in his video: 'platforms need to be profitable to be sustainable' and most likely Twitch and #Reddit aren't.

But chasing away creators doesn't seem a smart move.

#solarpunk definiert sich selbst als Kunstrichtung und als soziale #bewegung. „ #solar “ nennt sich die Bewegung, weil die Utopien, die sie entwirft, stets auf nachhaltigen Energien fußen. Und „ #punk “, weil die Grundlage für die Verwirklichung dieser Utopien eine radikale ökologische und gesellschaftliche #transformation ist.

Die Bewegung tauscht sich vor allem im #internet aus und formiert sich auf Plattformen wie #reddit oder #tumblr .

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UqJJktxCY9U

Hilarious that a #HackerNews top voted comment on a post wrt #Reddit censoring mentions of #Lemmy effectively argues that the latter is "too geeky and hard to use" and that the former two won't be displaced because they're well known and easy to approach.

These people have ZERO self awareness. Never mind understanding about the legacy of their forums.

More thoughts on #reddit

I left Facebook because they started messing with the timeline algorithm and refused to let me sort by newest.

I noticed I visited 9gag a lot less now that they messed with the timeline algorithm.

Though I think I'd survive Reddit without the third party mobile app, merely a massive drop in activity there, the actual last straw would be if they finally remove the old.reddit - which haven't happened, but it's a matter of time.

Additionally, with the death of #reddit, you can move to #lemmy which is a Federated FOSS alternative to what Reddit used to provide. There are multiple servers from which to choose: https://join-lemmy.org/ #linux #foss #reddit #fediverse

Otherwise, we can expect Reddit to go IPO as soon as possible to cash-out and then let the platform wither.

This is a very relevant article to why centralized platforms are turning into, well shit. It's the owner's way of attracting people to use their platform with the promise of making the platform valuable to its users.

When they realize their profits, they exploit their users by ruining the experience and requiring users to pay, hence the “enshittification”. After you realize this, it becomes impossible to leave because you risk losing connections, losing access to your puchases, etc. We are seeing this with Imgur, Twitter, and Reddit.

The obvious way to avoid enshittification is using the Fediverse. The Fediverse is Social Media as a utility, thus nobody can exploit the ActivityPub protocol monetarily. Sure, Mastodon/Calckey/Akkoma/Misskey instances can turn to crap if its not properly moderated or shut down, but you can always move to another one and still have your connections and access to the Fediverse.

It's a long read, but it can explain why Twitter, Imgur, Reddit, and other big centralized platforms are turning into crap.

No, #bluesky doesn't count since it's for profit and in theory, it have the same enshittification problem.

Along with the strike on #reddit, the organizing of volunteer moderators and contributors on #StackExchange feels like more and more people are realizing that it is their labour, which makes these digital places so useful.

It is digital labour, social labour, cultural labour and knowledge labour being exploited by commercial platform. Organizing and strikes are an important step in realizing this relationship of exploitation.

Feminist thinkers have a lot to say about the exploitation of social work, especially if it is unpaid and framed as not being work at all.

Laurel Ptak once made a clever remix of the "Wages Against Housework" manifesto from the 70s. Ptak called it "Wages for Facebook", and in it she writes:

> By denying our facebook time a wage while profiting directly from the data it generates and transforming it into an act of friendship, capital has killed many birds with one stone. First of all, it has got a hell of a lot of work almost for free, and it has made sure that we, far from struggling against it, would seek that work as the best thing online.

http://wagesforfacebook.com

The first two paragraphs of "Wages For Facebook", which are:

"They say it’s friendship. We say it’s unwaged work. With every like, chat, tag or poke our subjectivity turns them a profit. They call it sharing. We call it stealing. We’ve been bound by their terms of service far too long—it’s time for our terms.

To demand wages for facebook is to make it visible that our opinions and emotions have all been distorted for a specific function online, and then have been thrown back at us as a model to which we should all conform if we want to be accepted in this society. Our fingertips have become distorted from so much liking, our feelings have gotten lost from so many friendships."

One thing I'd like to bring attention to is that not everyone thinks the same way, even in a single community. Take the blind community for example. Different people advocate differently. In the whole Reddit debate, some think that Reddit should allow API access, so that blind people can use whatever works for them. Others think Reddit should do whatever they want, so that Reddit can then focus on their own accessibility in their app and site. So for those who aren't blind, or disabled, you probably already know this, but don't take one blind person's word on things. I personally think it's amazingly naive to think that Reddit will focus on their own app accessibility once API's are gone, but it's whatever. See the comments on this post for an idea of the arguments.

Y'all know what, I'm probably about to say the quiet part outloud and I don't care. You know how them wheelchair users went up to the whitehouse and was like "Hands off my ADA!"? I mean I could be making it up, my memory is awful. But even if that didn't happen, it shows what I'm on about with this. Y'all know how hard it is for blind people who aren't well connected to get transportation to places? Hell, even buying groceries is hard in a lot of situations. On a bus? Oh no there's a rule where you can only cary on what can comfortably fit in your lap. Uber? Oh hey looke the driver doesn't wanna be held liable of the blind person like falls or something so no ride. So getting a few thousand blind people somewhere will be pretty hard. Yeah there's the yearly convention, but I'm willing to bet a good hundred thousand more joined by Zoom than went to the convention. And the Whitehouse, or Apple, or government offices, they have to see people in their faces to feel something, to change. Like, calls and emails? Those can be ignore, or put onto low ranking call center folks that can only send stuff up the chain or just nothing at all. But you see blind people up in your face, angry and willing to do shit? You gonna fucking listen. And that's why solidarity is so fucking important. Because a lot of us can't be in marches to the #whitehouse, or out there at #WWDC, or writing the latest news about #Reddit. All that. Solidarity is really, really important. And that's why when I see posts by black people, or trans people, I sit here and think "What if that was me?"

There's lots of talk right now about how #Reddit alternatives such as #Lemmy, #kbin and #Lotide fit into the overall picture of the #Fediverse, with some calling these link-aggregation sites collectively the "Threadiverse". But how does #Pinetta fit into the mix?

Much like a link aggregator, Pinetta allows users to collect and comment on various things like links, text, images, video, and so on. In that sense, it will interact almost seamlessly with federated link aggregators. The main difference, of course, is in the user interface. Pinetta will have a number of modes that users can choose to display content:

- As a "feed" chronologically or ranked based on most engaging posts (based on favourites and boosts);
- As a "grid" similar to how
#Pixelfed displays images in profiles;
- As a "masonry" layout - much like how
#Pinterest displays pins by default;
- As a "mood board", which will allow users to arrange pins visually to their liking in a freeform 2D layout.

Like what you're reading? So do we. Give us a follow and star our repos on Codeberg to keep up with development!

The growth of our lemmy instance, without any advertising or spruiking. It was spun up as a test more than anything else, but it seems that it has become more than that!

Even though the graph shows the growth spike from April to June, in reality it's even more stark than that. We have gone from 20 users to 100 users in a week!

We'll be spinning up a kbin instance soon too, and when we do, we might shut down registration on the lemmy instance. We'll keep them up for now though, given the load on lemmy.ml from reddit migrations

I also setup a #Lemmy account on https://lemmy.ml.

I’ll probably be leaving #Reddit coming the end of this month so I’ll be transitioning over there.

Follow me over there as well! @kylewritescode@lemmy.ml

Happy Sunday! Just wanted to remind you that this exists.

Meme of redditor who tells story of dog who is present at the time of death of his human (basing the analogy that humans are elvish in dog timelines).

Many subreddits will go dark on June 12 in protests of Reddit’s egregious changes to its API prices, designed to kill 3rd party apps.

Some plan to stay dark for 48 hours, through June 14.

Please join us all in refusing to visit, use, share, post, comment, think about, sneeze, or fart in #Reddit’s general direction.

Like, share, subscribe, repost, and tell strangers on the street. https://reddit.com/r/Save3rdPartyApps/comments/13yh0jf/dont_let_reddit_kill_3rd_party_apps/

Just saw someone on #Reddit using #ChatGPT to answer a user's question — they didn't disclose it but it was painfully obvious.

Very on-brand, as a large portion of Reddit's user base consists of people who are confidently wrong about everything.

Still, I miss the times before #AI, when being wrong at least required some effort.

Terrific interview from @SnazzyLabs with Apollo dev @christianselig.

A horses mouth detailed talk about Reddit following in Twitter’s footsteps in charging unsustainable prices for API access, killing 3rd party apps.

What a time to be (digitally) alive. First was the exodus from #twitter to #mastodon. Now it looks like an exodus from #reddit is coming, but where to this time? Greed will always collect a lot, but never anything that really matters.
On a side note, I can't wait for the exodus when people realized that @pixelfed is second only to #instagram in data misuse.

I don't think #twitter really cares if they lose advertisers or if they have to pull out of EU. They don't care about being a global platform, and money is just a possible side benefit.

What they do want is to control the political discourse in their home country.

The same is likely happening with #Reddit ; expect similar changes to other platforms. Same about stopping non-US platforms ( #tiktok ).

The long-term goal is to deplatform anyone not on the political far right. And it's working.
