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.
I have mentioned it in my other comment in this thread.
The link that the thread you linked to, has, doesn’t work. It doesn’t even have an option to delete your data. I have screenshots on my other comment.
Reddit doesn’t have a way for you to delete your data which against the 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.
Collapsible comment threads
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.
The main problem with NSFW content in Lemmy is that it’s almost exclusively in some media format which effectively tends to put a huge strain on the system, be it technical difficulties or storage space in general.
If the lemmy platform wants to survive, NSFW content needs to be allowed but the technical difficulties will probably take a while to be fully resolved.
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.
Reddit has been banning users and/or communities that redirect others to Lemmy.
Yeah the non-commercial part just destroys the entire announcement. Mods could just use a community made bot that they bought for like $5 and be done with it.
Since this will be now against the ToS, no one will be bothered to develop these tools for free, to move around.
This is a worthless post.
Additionally to guides, there 100% needs to be an FAQ section somewhere.
The amount of times I can’t find [insert other instance’s community here] when searching for it has been asked is both insane and expected.
Fediverse is new(for most people) and people are confused. An FAQ page would help massively as a first stepping stone when encountering issues.
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!
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.
