Thanks! Honestly it’s been less of an adjustment than I expected. Took a couple hours to read about it and figure out how it works, picked a server, and jumped right in. The big thing is that I’m losing that whole curated sub list that I’m going to have to replicate, but I’m sure it’ll take care of itself.

I definitely don’t want to provide reddit with any more value, but many of my posts and comments were informative or had a good way to explain something or the like, and I still get random replies and mail years later on some of them. This (in general, not on reddit in specific) i feel is my contribution to society, so shitting on that just to very slightly inconvenience reddit feels counterproductive. I don’t receive any direct benefit from it (and upon leaving reddit I won’t even get the indirect benefit of people telling me how helpful I was), but I am content to know that maybe I’ve helped a few people.

Ok, I’m having a brain fart here, but I can’t imagine anything but ‘knights’ for ‘k***hts’. :P

I left Digg during that exodus and went to Reddit, and now here I am. Enshittification happens everywhere that capitalism finds an opportunity to put its dick in someone’s ass, it’ll probably happen here too if it gets popular.

I went 13 years without being banned, even though I spent most of my time on there debating politics and religion which frequently got heated and had never even been temp-banned from a subreddit. Now I’ve been banned 4 times in the last year for total bullshit, 2 of which happened yesterday, so things have definitely gone downhill.

Yup, they banned me for 7 days because saying Luigi didn’t deserve to go to jail for what he did is apparently ‘encouraging violence’. I appealed and it was lifted, but not before I got another message identical to yours. In my 14 years of reddit I have never had more than a single account, so I appealed that too. I’m not banned anymore but I got a message saying the second appeal was denied and the ban would stay in place. I think reddit is just falling over itself in its eagerness to frog-march to Der Fuhrer spez’s new fashy bullshit.

Thanks, that ought to get me started.

What struck me as weird is that it’s not a smooth curve like you would expect from lens distortion or whatever, it’s straight for 6 windows, then angled from #7 on, which is what made me wonder if the building was subtly angled or something.

I had a similar realization about bison recently too, those things are goddamned huge, bigger even than that mid-sized SUV. Apparently they can get up to 3000lbs in weight.

The message about my perma-ban was actually 11 hours older than the message about my temp-ban being lifted, so they perma-banned me and then un-temp-banned me, which is… kinda fucky.
