Unfortunately, some companies (especially if you're working for a small company), will list their employees as different ethnic backgrounds to pass off as being an equal opportunity employer. Depending on where you are, what company or institution you are working for, that can be a legal requirement or add a level of credibility if in the past that has been an issue (if they were sued for discrimination It's helpful to pull up a record showing, they're hiring people with multiple diverse backgrounds). It can also provide certain tax breaks too.

Feels like someone pressed the self-destruct button for The Internet, eh?
This guy does a excellent job on explaining not only the details, but the terminology too, and how to install, use, and configure. So I'm going to share this video for you and even the newbies who stumble over this post: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aIwgPKkVj8s
EndeavourOS has been my distro of choice for a while now. It is also what I suggest to a newbie looking to try arch. But even as someone who knows Arch inside and out, sometimes you just want to save time. You can use the custom installer to install Arch without EndeavourOS's apps or tweaks, but with a speedy and friendly GUI.
Voyager I think fits nicely for a Kbin app. Especially since the whole idea behind the platform is it is decentralized and federated. When you think about it, what are you doing, but exploring that open web -taking a voyage.
Well, my 1st thread on Kbin, proves people do not understand business.
It is a numbers game. And my question is a valid one, meant to encourage people NOT to go back to Reddit.
The reality is simple. In business, it's a numbers game.
If people go back to Reddit, even as unhappy people, the numbers will still reflect people browsing, posting, etc... That translates into ad revenue.
Even if many of those people who joined Lenny or Kbin, lurk in the shadows, that will show traffic and be viewed in a positive light.
If you really want to hurt Reddit, stay away from Reddit. Anything less, and the CEO of theirs is going to laugh to the bank.
I get that's not the popular viewpoint...
There is something about the underdog taking on the big, evil corporation and shaking their fist and the big guy folding.
But this is The Internet, and traffic means money. Period.
Some people make money just holding onto a domain name with a simple cover page (domain parking). So long as the site is regularly viewed by thousands or millions, they'll turn a profit. Add in everyone anyone who still post, adding to that content, more profit.
Of course, the CEO and admins were going to de-mod anyone who did not play ball.
Is that fair? Of course, not! But business is not always fair.
The true "protest" was for people to leave. To pack your bags and go elsewhere without returning. To adopt sites like Mastodon, Kbin, Lenny, or what have you, and leave Reddit in the dust.
That was the only thing that was ever going to mean anything. The question is, will people keep away or not?
This is why I prefer kbin over Lemmy. -- I'm posting this on kbin.social right now.
Kbin honestly looks like a drop replacement for Reddit. If you were not paying attention and had given Kbin the Reddit logo, you could easily mistake this for Reddit. Plus it is further developed along.
