Some of the AI mashups that people have created on social media sound really good—so I have faith in Paul and his producers to make John sound authentic. Have you heard Heart On My Sleeve?

It's not just trans people fleeing either. I'm plain ole queer and left AR in 2016 when my gay roommate said he didn't see what was so bad about Trump.
Digging in their heels like this just convinces me that I made the right decision as soon as Christian Selig went public with his post. This goes way deeper than just them not listening to moderators and app developers. The CEO of Reddit is willing to kill the platform if we don't get in line—fuck spez. I hope reddit dies a thousand deaths a day as people migrate to the fediverse that fits them best.
Murdered: Soul Suspect casts you as a detective solving your own murder from beyond the grave.
I carry my ereader around with me and read when I have time mostly. Sometimes its in the morning while I'm having my coffee, other times its later at night while I'm winding down. I usually don't listen to audio while reading unless my partner is watching TV before bed. Then I'll listen to the noise generators on mynoise.net to block out whatever they're watching.
I think those communities will eventually arrive on the fediverse. If anything, building the community yourself and gently guiding people to the alternative could help fence sitters who don't understand the full implications of reddit's new policies for the 1% of power users who actually create most of the content.
90% are lurkers, 9% will comment and upvote, while 1% of users generate content for the others.
Get on linux mint. There are dozens of us!
I'm a 38-year-old woman who has been playing games since she was five years old. The myth that women don't play and enjoy games is a long-running one.
I also felt that way. It felt like the soul of an interesting Fallout style game shoved into the shell of something else. Maybe it was just the space setting, but I found none of the characters to be enjoyable and the parody of late stages capitalism that Spacer's Choice was just fell flat.
Bring back web rings!
I love how many of the subreddits are going dark for this protest. The community IS reddit. It is NOT the assholes who took VC-backed money to fleece crypto bros out of money. It's idiotic. I hope everyone understands that you can find quality discussions in the fediverse and leaves reddit accordingly. They're not the gatekeeper of good conversation online.
They're betting that the masses are too baked in to care. Reddit's CEO said it himself, they're counting on this to blow over. The best message you can send to them is to delete your reddit account and in the box that asks why you're doing so, tell them you're leaving for lemmy. Encourage your communities to follow you. This has happened one before with us old-timers who remember the Great Digg Migration. (Interesting internet history read if you have time.)
