Really? I feel like Barbenheimer is going to help it. Having a heavy drama around the Manhattan project just doesn't feel like the Midsummer success Nolan believes. Drop that when the weather cools off.

Milwaukee. I bought early into the launch of the brushless fuel line when they were clearly above the rest, and now I'm in their ecosystem. Anything corded or doesn't have it's own battery I'll use whatever I meets my needs best though.

My cordless tools do get used professionally though. I might add some Ryobi to my kit for some of the odd ball items that only exist in their ecosystem like the extended power brush.

It's a little wild that they're going to bind contracts by text. Last thing I need is someone replying for me because I'm busy, and now I'm in a contract.

Didn't the Equifax leak include people's data that never used their service? Like damn, is Zuck going to learn something new about me that every other company hasn't written down already?

People are pretty fond of the grassroots movement for independent creators to strike their own on reddit. Onlyfans is a good website for creators to monetize their content, but I don't believe it does much for growing their following. Pornhub has gotten better for smaller creators but so many things are lost in their terrible tagging and indexing that they're lost in the flood.

Topical community environments like reddit on the other hand let's them show their specific content to a group that's primed to like it. Mods are keeping the focus narrowed, so you're less likely to compete against the same reposted clip from a decade ago that has little connection to the tags affixed. Pretty similar reasons for why it did so well on Tumblr as well.

Right off 90. Nice.

Is it worth arguing with someone. Claiming to have been here for 3 years on a week-old account? He cries about "Reddit-brained" while possibly account hopping like a redditor.

A church is probably a worse place.

You want to advertise to people who aren't your customers.

Pretty sure they bought one of the 3rd parties, and then made it worse.

I'm a little shocked that RIF showed so few downloads considering how much older it was than the official app, and it originally was named "Reddit is Fun."

The NHL is basically unavailable to those people. Everywhere you look is a betting ad, and the official channels and radio stations give you the betting lines for games constantly.

I'm still trying to figure out why I'm nostalgic for those days.

It felt like there was an overall shift on reddit. I had already seen that the people on it were getting shittier and shittier with their opinions (thank you r/hockey for exposing homophobes and transphobes in bulk), but post blackout it was a completely different site.

Going to have to help get the community's I care about lively over here, but I hope it keeps to a more pleasant and dare I say, less bottled space.
