If somethings takes less than 5 minutes to do, do it right away. Don’t waste time thinking about when to do it, reminding yourself the whole time, risk forgetting about it, don’t procrastinate about it. Do it right away. You get so much more stuff done and are way less stressed.

One here and one on kbin, but I noticed that I spent 80% of the time here. I often want to try out kbin, but the cloudflare-check I have to go through every single time I want to use kbin is annoying and it just feels more empty than Lemmy. So I often can’t be bothered to go to kbin anymore and will most likely choose Lemmy as my replacement for Reddit.

You can promote it all you want on reddit, just always be polite and not obnoxious in any way or form. Not saying that you personally would be, but speaking in general terms too much energy into convincing people to come here might have a negative effect on other people’s motivation.

If they streamline how users get access to Reddit, then they get to determine what they see. Now the third-party apps will get killed, the access through mobile browsers will be limited with the idea to force users into the app, old-reddit will be gone at some point as well. And then Reddit can spam users with ads and also force users into buying premium services to see no/less ads. Since all alternative ways of using the website will be gone, people have to swallow that pill no matter how big it is.

I really believe he did not expect the Apollo dev to have recorded the whole conversation, so badmouthing him would have served to create the narrative that the dev is the bad guy in this. That would have given all those people ammunition who are clearly against the blackout, against the anger of the destruction of third-party apps and against those who participate or started it. And this is what Spez hoped for: create doubt in the dev and therefore the whole blackout. So that in the end it’s a “we are not perfect, but the dev also did bad things”-situation, which sadly would work for many people.

Spez clearly doesn’t get enough oxygen in his little prepper bunker aka his mum’s basement.
