What's reddit
Lemmy-like platform. But looks like they haven't implemented ActivityPub yet.
They sound pretty shady. Think we should defederate?
Dam lemmy.world at it again
I heard they have some piracy communities, so thatβs reason enough for most admin
I also saw a picture of someone with braces there once.
They also seem to want to replace moderators with AI and even bought a company that does so. Weird, and probably easy to abuse. Wouldn't trust.
I don't know why these platforms think they'll ever take off without even implementing federation. It's 2023!

Remember Digg? It's like that except it's mostly bots.
It's a website where bots talk to each other and posts links from all over the internet in order to scam corporations out of ad revenue.
Dead Internet theory personified.
A centralized, proprietary alternative to Lemmy.
I think its like Chlamydia but you catch it from sticking your head too far up your ass (hence spez has it the worst)
a marketing tool
