Seems unlikely they'll deleted it. If they're started deleting data that's quite a change. They might save from bandwidth costs of delivering it to people I suppose.

Maybe something to do with users filling the AIs from the google cache? Google wanting to ensure only they can train from the google-cache.

If only there really was a party offering to undo every law the conservative and coalition governments have passed and return us to a time before they existed.

That party would be the best party.

Sadly that isn't on offer and even Labour intend to keep this mess of a country mostly without any reverting of changes at all.

@[email protected] hehe.

A stylus holder too, an extra battery of course, too to handle the extra load.

No phone has been better than the n900. But a case that had the keys and extra power and maybe a secondary status screen on the back, and didn't look like a bananna themed children's toy. Could be nice.

While it still says "twitter.com" in the SSL certificate, that's still it's name. It is still called Twitter.

Ah, I really wish Oculus had sold themselves to almost any other company on the planet :(

@XeryBlox The first thing I would pirate would be a hacked version of Firefox that had ad-blockers in it.

If I can't get that then I'd think about abandoning the web for Gemini.

Probably the "company" that they thought you were shilling for is Kbin or Lemmy? Which aren't companies of course, but an understandable mistake.

Presumably the people on Reddit will become more and more in favour of the admins, as everyone who isn't leaves.

Soon all that is left will be the Spez Fan Club.

@honeyed_coffee For the reasons the OP mentioned. Familiar faces, being recognized in a community instead of being just today's main character.

In a single large forum most participants are silent, as they must be or it'd be a cacophony. Many are silent out of worry that they need to say something good enough to impress a hundred thousand people, not just something interesting to their local 100 friends.

On Fediverse things escape their local instances and their local forum-groups by boosts mostly.

Yeah, I keep saying this to people when they worry about fragmentation. Like it's important to have all the Baseball fans in the same Baseball forum under one big banner.

No, that's not better, that's worse. What you want is a thousand interconnected forums with 100 people each, not a forum with 100,000 people.

@Gaywallet Replying in your mega-thread. KBin here is tagging you when I do that and I didn't delete it.

Haven't used Lemmy much, perhaps that behaviour is different?

@CeruleanRuin their website says right there on the nag popup. This website is deliberately user hostile, to drive you all onto the app where you can be efficiently transported towards the rotating knives.

I mostly just didn't look at Reddit much to avoid the trap.
