A fellow old-timer here pushing for 900 comments salutes you! You keep doing your thing, congratulations!

I’ll take sleeping pills to get through it.

That’s still shady, though. Google/YouTube’s “content creators” should reject and expose this kind of deal.

Is this mandatory in any way?

I would take a look at Reddit, right now, to see what you refer to as an “atrocity”, but they block me for using a VPN, so…

I don’t mind these feeds as long as they are controlled. Unsubscribed from data is beautiful because they used to use a bot to feed from Reddit, I believe, but it was out of control, reposting everything from there.

I wouldn’t mind if it was something coming from other instances, less spammy, at least as an experiment.

Props to Voyager too. It’s now in Fdroid and allows me to hide the voting scores. That’s all I’ve ever wanted from Reddit, a great client like Infinity with no visible vote scores. Lemmy will be more and more used with all these new clients for sure.

Yeah. Although, I was more like a niche contributor in Reddit and currently Lemmy’s action happens in big communities, so I became more like a commenter than a poster. All things considered, it’s cool.

/u/spez aliases are getting grumpy.

I was just following the joke. Linux, the kernel and Linus Sebastian are probably the same age, from my point of view (yeah, I’m old).

TIL

Good.
