Not in this day and age where me and my grandma have our own.
There are so many, you can’t keep up to date with your hobbies unless you are willing to follow 50 platforms with 60 different UIs and community rules.
I prefer the aggregation of data like fediverse where we can follow topics and not platforms.
If you are not a European citizen you cannot ask for your data to be deleted but you 100% can report a company, in this context Reddit, for not complying with GDPR.
The controller should use all reasonable measures to verify the identity of a data subject
Huge emphasis on reasonable. If by asking me to log in for the sake of verification results in me not being able to delete my data as I’ve demonstrated above, then this is 100% NOT REASONABLE.
They are actively hindering the process that GDPR requires me to take.
I don’t care about the small letters, this is a GDPR violation. I should have an easy way to delete my data and this ain’t it.
GDPR applies to people in European Economic Area whose data is used by companies,
I am in Greece. I am protected by GDPR.
I have already sent a GDPR request to Reddit and they refuse to comply.
I asked them to delete everything they have about me, including my account and they told me that I need to login into reddit and ask it from there which:
Reddit literally refuses to comply with GDPR rules and tonight after work I am going to lodge a formal complain about GDPR violations as I do have proof of this in my emails.
Fuck Reddit I hope it crashes and burns.
Different subreddits had different rules. In some subs you needed loads of karma to post.
Karma farming was also used to bump up the account so that it could be sold to malicious buyers for propaganda or spam posting purposes.
It’s also the reason I don’t play No Man’s Sky(apart from the bait and switch launch).
People don’t play Bethesda games because they are good sims but because they are good RPGs.
If they pivot to a sim/building type game then I don’t think people will like it.
While it is neat I don’t see it offering a good user experience.
The reason this shouldn’t be in here, in a forum platform, is that if you go to the front page and try to read new it keeps bouncing up and down because it’s constantly updating.
This comment is incorrect as well.
The people that cared left and what’s left behind is people that wouldn’t leave anyway and the strike only bothers them.
This person is living in a bubble and can’t see further than their nose.
We need to document this and make sure everyone knows what reddit is doing.
There’s been a lot of posts both here and on reddit saying that mentions of kbin and/or lemmy get deleted or the users/subs get outright banned, like /r/redditMigration, which had 2 posts and got banned for spam.
Regardless of the outcome of the strike, Reddit already has died. The users that matter won’t go back. The users that stay will be media and a large pool of lurkers with no value to the community.
Reddit as we knew it, already died.
These and others are why you’re finding me with you here in the fediverse.
I’ve been here for a week and it already feels like home!
Squabbles
Isn’t this developed by one person, isn’t open source and forbids NSFW in general? That is never going to go well.
Tildes
No mobile app and no ActivityPub so it’s a very specialised. Additionally I don’t like the UI at all and I’ve read this in multiple threads here as well.
Lemmy + Kbin
Both are show the same content as they are federated so it’s up to who prefers what really. I prefer Lemmy, but anything is fine.
Apparently they had a falling out or something because there a similar post by the tankie including screenshots and proof that the dude that posted the above is lying.
I don’t wanna start my experience by listening to someone else to be honest so I will decide for myself what is better for me.
And up until now lemmy has had a better experience for me than kbin social. Additionally I think kbin isn’t open to signups anymore from what people are saying.
I have been using lemmy for more than a week now and have also talked with the dev/admin both regarding communities and on GitHub for a pull request I did. The experience was good and for now I will be staying here.
I also don’t like the look of kbin and the ux for now.
I have an account in mastodon, kbin, tildes, raddle and lemmy and out of all, lemmy seemed to work the best for me, for now.
Greed.
The answer is always Greed.
What profit is my government(Greek) going to have by doing this? Nothing, so obviously it’s not gonna be done.
If everything is because of profit, then nothing works.
