Its been one day without Reddit
  • While you are correct, the reasons for Beehaw defederating from lemmy seems to be something they have to do in order to moderate their own instance. As the technology grows (and hopefully modtools get built - like bots perhaps? and more mods in general), there will be no need to deferederate like Beehaw did. However, to give you an example as to why an instance would want to defederate (essentially, be private), is if it's for an exclusive group of people. A workplace, or a subscription add-on. (think like, subscribing to a patreon, and as part of their offering, you get to sign up for their lemmy (or whatever server) instance). Maybe that isn't how it would work, but in my brain, that's a way it could be used and be beneficial :)

  • Welcome to GMM!

    Let's talk about that!

    Just a place where we can all post, comment, and chat about everything Rhett and Link! Everything Mythical is welcome, discussions around daily uploads, their podcasts (or the crew's podcasts!), episode ideas (not that they'll read them, but it's fun!) and more!

    Please be kind, friendly and welcoming!

    Lemmy is so good right now for no particular reason
  • It isn’t for no reason other than that. Granted, that is a reason. However, without a clear ratio of upvotes to downvotes, there’s no differentiating between good vs bad. YouTube removed their dislike button, but you can still see how many views a video has. If a video has 1m views but like 3k likes, you can see a ratio there. On here, there’s no ‘views’ per comment. So a use case would be that, say I posted something objectively false that supported a narrative. If others come along and support the same narrative and upvoted it, that post would look relatively credible. Downvotes allows for democratic running of social media. Which is what Reddit once was, and what lemmy is trying to be.

    I know it’s a shit thing to say, but if your posts always get downvoted to oblivion, it’s probably moreso you that’s got a skewed outlook vs everyone else. (Not you as in you but you as in the general person)

  • And so it’s gone
  • If you liked Apollo, google ‘wefwef’ and open it in safari. Press share and add to your Home Screen. It’s a webapp that feels iOS forward. Just like Apollo.

    If you don’t like that, try Memmy App. Really good too!

  • And so it’s gone

    That’s sad. I’m sad. RIP Apollo. Fuck Reddit. Fuck Spez.

    Thank you Christian.

    Replaced Apollo on my Home Screen with Memmy App.

    Here’s to the future I guess?
