These are the best people on earth.

There's nothing that can express my disdain for Google's reCaptcha.

😒 We're training its AI models 😒 It's free labor for Google 😒 Sometimes it wants the corner of an object, sometimes it doesn't 😒 Wildly inconsistent 😒 Always blurry and hard to see 😒 Seemingly endless 😒 It's the robot asking us humans if we're the robots

#AdoptDontShop and don't support breeders/puppy mills.

No such thing as a "pure bred" dog anyways.

Plus, mutts have far fewer health problems. "Pure breeds" are largely inbred and products of incest.

Yeah, it's only an aggregator that then points you to the original content. For legal reasons, I don't think OpenSourcely would be able to host the original content natively.

[–] hiramfromthechi 21 points 5 months ago (4 children)

I started a website called OpenSourcely to do exactly this.

It aggregates news, projects, and announcements related to open source.

I'm always on the lookout for new RSS feeds and outlets to add to it, so if anyone has any, feel free to send them my way.

Nice, that's my screenshot (but not my post). Dope to see it surface again. 🤘

[–] hiramfromthechi 1 points 5 months ago

Feel free to pop them into the Markdown file, or send em my way.

Oof, here we go:

Sounds like it. It happens with other Google services too. Someone could share a GDoc to your non-Gmail email, but if that non-Gmail email isn't a Google account, then you won't be able to access the doc/comments/whatever else (depending on the doc permissions, of course).

[–] hiramfromthechi 2 points 6 months ago

I suppose "harm" can be subjective in this context, and there are already some good replies here.

One more thing to add to the list that I'd consider harmful in creating a Gmail account is all of the privacy issues that come with having a Gmail account.

Out of respect for my recipients and myself, I wouldn't want all of our emails being read.

We can go down the rabbit hole of "Email is inherently insecure anyways," but that's a separate discussion.

Nice to see this as a standard, thanks. Edited to reflect this.

What is this product, and what does it do?

Reddit Account Manager allows you to keep track of all of your accounts, subreddit subscriptions, and bookmarks—all in one place.

How does this product help me?

Reddit Account Manager acts as a database repository for your Reddit accounts, so that if and when you decide to delete your Reddit account, you have your accounts, subscriptions, and bookmarks all in one place. With Reddit Account Manager, you'll:

  • Know exactly when you created every account
  • Know how much post/comment karma each account has
  • Know when it's time to delete an account
  • Have all your subscriptions mapped out and ready to go for the next account you create
  • Save all your bookmarks, even if your accounts are long gone
  • Know when an account is active, deleted, or not created yet

Why did you build this product?

Despite many Redditors' desires to delete their account and start a new one, many refrain from doing so for multiple reasons. Reasons include (but are not limited to):

  • Losing track of the subreddits they're subscribed to
  • Losing bookmarks
  • Lack of data export functionality from Reddit
  • Time and effort in switching (and ditching) accounts

Why have multiple Reddit accounts, and why would I want to delete them periodically?

All of your Reddit activity is public. Over time, you become increasingly identifiable. By having multiple Reddit accounts designated to specific subreddits/interests, and deleting them after some time, you:

  • Maintain pseudo-anonymity
  • Subscribe to different subreddits across different accounts
  • Keep a low profile and mix up data

Which platform do I need to use Reddit Account Manager?

You can use it out-of-the-box with any the following:

  • Airtable
  • Baserow
  • Notion
  • Coda
  • ClickUp

Can I use this to store or migrate my Reddit data now that Reddit has killed third-party apps?

Absolutely, yep. You can (and should) use it however it works best for you.

Why did you make it free?

We all deserve privacy and to not be tracked all over the web. I knew this could bring value to every single Reddit user who wants to delete their account, start a new one, or simply keep track of everything you want to, so that if you ever do want to destroy your account, you'll be able to without worrying about losing track of it all.

And given Reddit's recent controversial decisions, Reddit Account Manager serves as a great tool to export your data and take it with you wherever you go next.

I'm finding that I like bits and pieces from the various available frontends, but I haven't heavily gravitated towards one in particular.

If you have gravitated towards a specific UI, which one and why?
