Don't be silly, there would be plenty of local subreddits left. They would be significantly quieter and calmer too!

I know it's a terribly unfashionable opinion, but the idea a bunch of redditor shitheads were going to topple multi billion dollar hedge funds was grounds to be sectioned in the first place. Reminds me of that scene in Casino where they go ham on the dude trying to cheat them out of their money.

The idea that people on reddit that bought GME stock at the normal price weren't going to sell once it hit 300 a share is a hilariously dumb idea

The latter, I m pretty sure, but notice he says apprentice?

He's the dude who takes the beans out of the roaster after 26 minutes because the actual roaster that he apprenticed to said so, not because he knows wtf he is doing yet.

Why does does Reddit’s favorite comic artist’s loli subreddit have special functionality built into the reddit app?

Whenever it pops up on /r/all it behaves differently than any other subreddit

couldn't tell ya, it seems weird to install the reddit app to look at porn

based on other sites and the non-mobile reddit, I would guess that artists and similar can customize the display of their stuff to make it more appealing or accessible

It’s been established that Chloe(?) is Schrodinger’s Lolita, which is creepy as gently caress. I don’t think we need to continue reestablishing that fact unless the artist does something new and terrible. YMMV

Yeah my partner uses some sort of knitting app to keep track of patterns (Ravelry I think?) and they had some drama a few months ago trying to get rid of bigots and right-wing nutjobs. Nowhere is safe.

Ravelry is now causing their own drama with a site redesign so incredibly bad that it's giving people seizures and migraines. Their whole brand now is how woke they are...so their response is "you're all just hysterical, we don't care"

I'll look in on Reddit from time to time on a whim.

I still don't understand the dipshit reward currency stuff (Gold, Silver, Platinum, etc).

I don't think I want to.

If you get awarded silver, gold or platinum you get invited to a special, private subreddit entirely composed of people posting “this is what I got my award for” and no-one commenting or looking. For the other awards I don’t believe you ‘get’ anything, which is of course better.

It's a way for Reddit to earn even more money

Punkinhead

I've heard a lot of those awards aren't actually given to the post by users. Instead Reddit will see a rising post that's making it to the front page and "seed" it with lots of awards, and this for some reason compels other people to spend money and add even more awards. Not sure if it's true but it makes sense considering how many awards some posts would get. It felt like front page posts went from occasionally getting a handful of awards to dozens and dozens almost overnight one day.

I've seen people say they got gifted a load of awards to give out, as well. Certainly it seems the desperate urge to be part of an in-crowd does lead people to add to the pile when they see an award. The AHA I GET THIS REFERENCE response seems to be quite a large part of Reddit culture so no surprise they'd find a way to drive additional revenue from it.
