I think any and all subreddits should go this way.
Reddit is only popular because of the users. We create the content. Yes, a lot of posts on the website are external links but all discussions are generated and concluded by us, the users.
Shutting subs down for 1-2 days and going back to normal is not going to have much of an impact. It’s akin to a server blip. If subs shut down indefinitely then reddit has a real problem. ‘Normal’ users will start to take notice, whereas they currently might not be paying much attention. These subs should go the other route. Shut down and promote alternatives (such as lemmy!) to divert traffic away from reddit.
Pigboy Spez talked about not being profitable. No shit, you dick. This is how you become even less profitable, by pissing off the entire user base.
Good. I think this is a dangerous time, though.
I can see him & other tearaway Tories setting up an even worse party and trying to bring over there diehards. Him and his cronies have tasted blood (read: stealing from and fucking the public) and in my opinion, that isn’t something they are going to want to give up completely.
General election can’t come soon enough.
I woke up to a load of noise downstairs, went to investigate assuming it was my cat… who I couldn’t see. No problem, I thought.
Stood in the kitchen making a cuppa and I hear a very sorry meow, so obviously assumed my poor boy was hurt!
No. Completely wrong. Some random cat is sat on the windowsill in my living room. Dead lovely little thing that enjoyed a bit of fuss before I let it back out into the world!
I’m not sure I’m a true self-hoster as I only host a Plex server, but happy to be here reading about the cool stuff other people do!
Agree! I don’t know how people do tea in this weather, and I love tea.
Smashing back the bottles of water like no tomorrow.
