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.
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.
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!
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.
And in the web app, above the comment it says Show context
.
This is completely wrong.
You think allowing users to express their opinions is wrong contrary to gathering people of one opinion only?
I don’t think there is a further point to be made in here.
Regardless of the outcome, I hope Reddit’s recent decisions turn in /r/leopardsatemyface.
mainstream media will discover Lemmy exists.
Mainstream media will 100% catch up more by the reveal of Meta’s Twitter alternative that implements the ActivityPub
protocol.
Why would I bash against Nintendo?
People like to bash Nintendo because of them going legally against fans that decide to revive older games that no longer available to be played using legal and/or official means.
This is really a gray area and people agree/disagree on this.
If for example OOT is not able to be played at all but a dude hacks the code and puts it on an emulator, then is that wrong or not?
Legally it’s wrong, but there’s an argument to be made that since Nintendo doesn’t offer this game, technically their are not losing profit.
Ultimately it’s a totally gray area and civil discussion on the topic should be welcomed and not suppressed, ever.
Every place is the wrong place to ask this question.
Putting a label or asking a community to reveal their manifesto is not a good look or how conversations should be started.
The correct thing to do is participate in communities you seem to like and if you find out that you don’t agree with that community on one or more fronts, then by all means, please create a new instance and/or community on your own and run it according to your preferences. This is the intended purpose of the fediverse: If you don’t like it, do it better by yourself.
I wish to hear all opinions in here by all kinds of people.
I wish to hear the worst and the best arguments on a topic.
Doing what you ask, as in join a pro-Nintendo community will 100% have a bad outcome since it will, by definition, be an echo chamber.
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.
