It wasn't the fact that there was a limit to see 1000 comments but what they were. The vast majority of my 12 years on Reddit I spent talking about dungeon and dragons 5th edition (DnD 5e) which I started playing early in is lifestyle. It was my first role playing game and I got sucked into the Internet to learn more. Before my first game I found dndnext where I could learn about the current edition. I spent hours and at least 1000 comments talking about playtests, new books, character concepts, rules, adventures and eventually the new onednd playtest.

If you aren't familiar with DnD you might be unfamiliar with their owner wizards of the coast (WoTC) which is part of Hasbro. WoTC has been awful this year, trying to rescind their open licence agreement which allows 3rd parties to operate. They broke their workers union with the Pinkertons and their are rumors their new edition will be digital only. I stopped even caring about the new playtests and completely disengaged with learning anything new.

So I was deleting comments on the old forum that provided me so much entertainment about the old game that I used to love. Both ruined in the same year but overwhelming greed. If that isn't the most millennial late stage capitalism experience I don't know what is.

What are we?

What do Lemmy users call themselves? What do Kbin users call themselves? What about Mast?

So far I can't come up with anything better than "Fediziens"

Update: The mod team capitulates and restores the subreddit to SFW status: https://teddit.adminforge.de/r/NonCredibleDefense/comments/14t393z/ncd_admins_and_you_recent_developments_inside/

It was and still is hard - or at least tedious - for me as a software developer to find out how to use the fediverse and lemmy. I can't imagine how annoying it must be for a normal user. The one thing I really liked about reddit, is that you can find a well written guide for everything, often pinned at the top of a specific sub. Is there something like that anywhere?

Hello

Surprising nobody, Reddit Corp threatening a gaming sub of a fanatically anti-corporate video game doesn't go as they'd hoped.

The mod team have basically decided that "Fuck Reddit" is the way forward, and appear to have practically total support of their entire sub for the choice taken.

Presumably, we're about to get a Cyberpunk community on Fediverse soon. :p

Patched Sync for Reddit still works, but using Relay for Reddit now tells me to use the official app to browse mature content.

A couple of notes: being a mod does work around this block. It also appears that reddit is blacklisting NSFW from an explicitly defined list of client ids, meaning Revanced-patched apps are not affected at all and you don't have to be a mod.

A nice directory of subreddits and where to find them on the threadiverse!

Title. Having it just be random magazines is useless.

Can you guys help me cancel my Reddit Premium? I can't seem to be able to find the feature on my profile, and the help pages of Reddit point me to a page where I can't can't see an option to manage subscriptions

This is why apps like Boost, who never signed up for a subscription model are still functioning.

The Admin's Reddit post from July 1st is as follows: (links edited in some areas as they didn't transfer will to here)

Updated rate limits going into effect over the coming weeks

Hi Devs,

Over the last few months, we’ve shared updates on our Data API Terms and Developer Terms. Shortly, we will begin enforcing the previously announced updated API rate limits. Rate limits will go into effect for all apps with usage above the free limit in the coming weeks, and some changes will be noticeable over the next 24 hours.

As we have shared, this will not impact non-commercial bots operating within free rate limits or moderator tools.

Free API access rates are as follows:

  • 100 queries per minute per OAuth client id if you are using OAuth authentication
  • 10 queries per minute if you are not using OAuth authentication

The vast majority of third-party apps and bots fall into the free usage category and should not see any disruptions. Our free rates account for bursts in usage.

For apps that exceed these limits, we have exempted select clients (for example, accessibility-focused apps like RedReader, Luna, and Dystopia), mod bots, and mod tools. If your bot or tool is affected unexpectedly, please reach out https://reddithelp.com/hc/en-us/requests/new?ticket_form_id=14868593862164.

There were numerous factors that led to the revolution, but a key one was unfair taxation. The British parliament was in a position of power and thought that they could behave with impunity for further profits.

We all attack Spez, but he doesn't own Reddit anymore. He is not acting alone. There are other rich and powerful people in the shadows backing his actions. They too thought they could behave with impunity.

Let what's happened since June 12th be an inspiration for future netizens. Power to the people who left and to the mods who continue to resist.

Here's to us!

I would love to find someplace to talk about roadtripping, comparing routes and whatnot.

I recently opened the app to ensure that it infact does not work anymore, but it just showed me the newest feed, like it did before. What is going on here? Are people funding this? Or have they switched to a third party API for read only?
