ILeftReddit

@kadu It’s not pointless at all. Really it’s a warning to whoever wants to start a community. If you do something reddit doesn’t like, be prepared to lose what you built, even if following the rules

@friend_of_satan I think it has a better meaning if you don’t go the shovel route with that comment, if you know what I mean

@OtakuAltair At this point I don’t care about redittors or reddit. It can go on to be wildly successful, doesn’t matter to me, I’ve moved on.

Then that sucks for them

Effectively, there is no benefit. But if you are looking for really niche stuff you can’t find on public trackers, you might have success on a private one with a focused category of torrents

@ivy Rust is just such an ugly looking language to me. I tried to learn it, but just never liked how I had to write code. Pretty superficial reason to drop it, but it just never jelled with me, so meh

@hyde I hope the same for windows users, but here we are haha

@hyde too an extent yes, but once again, if you give root access to malware because you don’t know any better, well you’re kind of just as screwed. If linux is to become more mainstream and be a daily driver of the average user, this could be a common scenario

@hyde running sketchy files on linux can be just as dangerous as windows. Linux’s strength comes from it’s trusted ecosystem of repositories and mainly open source programs which are easily auditable.

@Ivyymmy The whole point of that site is to distribute viruses, so if you didn’t get one consider yourself lucky. You should run windows defender, malwarebytes and norton power eraser just to be sure

People still use the piratebay? Thought it was all viruses now

I dare you go say an unpopular opinion in a knitting sub, lets see how good it goes for you

Can’t say I have ever needed the water resistance, but I also never drop my phone, so I guess I’m in the minority.

considering how early it is, this place is very active

Niche sub is just another way of saying echo chamber. Reddit was shit, every part of it

Fair, but how about the stuff you didn’t notice? You’d never know. College professors are being tricked everyday.

Eh, not as big of a deal as people think. You’ve probably already read lots of AI generated content without even realising it

I’m actually impressed how active this place is

In a blog post published by Reddit, the company links to its Moderator Code of Conduct while saying “Dissent, debate, and discussions are foundational parts of Reddit” and it respects the right to protests. However, the rules state that the company can remove moderators if they are uncooperative.

We respect your right to protest, but we also respect our right to not let you protest lolll

I use private internet access for years with port forwarding after almost getting booted from my ISP, been fine here
