I feel your sentiment. But it’s more about our impression that everything on the internet should be free.
There are people that hate subscriptions, paywalls, adds or that their personal data being sold. And yet they want to use all the services such as Netflix, YouTube, Facebook, etc. People want to have their cake and eat it too.
I am not saying that the number of adds and prices are not getting out of control but it makes sense to me that if I am not paying directly for certain services, I am paying for them with my personal data or an advertiser is paying for me instead.
There is like 5 apps I think available on android.
Technically you pay to use Youtube by watching adds. People sometimes forget that there are no free lunches.
I live in UK an I have seen ads every few posts. Have you been using it for long? Do you use some sort of VPN or network wide adblocker? Or maybe you didjtn realize they were ads as they are disguised as posts.
Well, new Reddit might easily mean better but also diffderent Reddit. Also, I am not sure whether people actually call it a new Reddit. Most of the time I heard the destription was a Reddit alternative which by definition doesn’t imply that it’s identical or even better in all ways.

My theory is that they are being sneaky and this is a trial to see how it will affect Twitter if they only made it to registered users. That is why they are calling it a “tech” issue. What a bunch of bollocks. This way they can backdown if they see a negative impact by claiming that they “fixed” the issue.
It would take way more but the first step it would be to remove religions. And not only because most are not peaceful in principle but also because some religions see others as a target. Even small difference in beliefs could spark a vicious and long standing conflic, like Catholics Vs protestants.
I know we are encouraged to create content on Lemmy… But based on the quality of your post and the effort I think we will be better off if you continue only lurking.
That means we achieved the full reddification of Lemmy
Am I the only with the paywall for the article?
There is a lot of spite in your comment bro.

Why would he not want to say the reason though? If that was the case, the OP could just say he is a shy pooper. Instead we now suspect that this is some kind of orgy with a fetish.
Guys we did it!
I would say that some bots were useful. Like the one that would convert the units from “freedom” oned to ones that actually make sense (or the other way around).
Also, I like the bot that summarized the article.
Listen here you little shit…
