Imagine you could use your SA account to also post on Reddit through a special hole in the SA forums that you can stick your account in and wiggle it around until a post spurts out on Spez's face. And if enough people did that and Spez didn't like it (we all know he does), he could close his awful hole and prevent that from happening again.

So basically federated reddit is like "Imagine if each subreddit was its own VBulletin board but were all connected in a giant web ring."

There's nothing to really replace it and maybe that's just a good thing.

Grey Cat posted:Look no further than the spammed adverts for Raid Shadow Legends. When you look hardly 2 inches behind the curtain you realize it's Plarium - Aristocrat Leisure, a company that makes gambling machines. So it doesn't take much of a leap to see other companies using the same sort of addiction feedback. The 2022 breakout video game genre of "bullet heavens" was kicked off by the release of Vampire Survivors. VS's developer worked on designing slot machines at his day job. A lot of people have attempted clones, many with little to no originally, that didn't understand what made the game popular. The sounds, visuals, and music when you get your reward are designed like a slot machine and a lot lot lot of clone developers just don't get it.

DeusIgnis posted:I've thought about going straight dumbphone. Buying a LightPhone, or even doing an old Pixel with GrapheneOS (not saying it is a dumbphone OS, but I feel like I would use my phone less with it). As much as I hate phones, it really is a blessing just having access to a computer in your pocket at all times, so I don't think dumbphones are the way to go. Being able to google something or check maps for directions or traffic info or whatever is the kind of thing you take for granted until suddenly you can't do it without physically going to a computer. Plus a lot of things use smartphones for 2fa which isn't the best idea for security but is sometimes unavoidable. Dumbphones can do those things but in frustrating ways that aren't user friendly. Setting it to Greyscale really does make a huge and immediately noticeable difference in how often you use your phone (for most people it seems, anyway). In iOS it's in the accessibility options I think. On Android it's in the Bedtime Mode settings. I don't even download dumb timekiller games on my phone anymore since doing that, virtually everything around me is more distracting than my phone is and it serves a very utilitarian purpose

Is it strange for me to point out that people's pondering on their meat packing plant is not, in fact, part of the news that I'm motivated to receive? That it's not why I originally started using reddit, but it's now a huge percentage of the feed if you're not logged in? Would you watch the news if 50% of it was random strangers discussing their feelings about their genitals? Actually, I retract the question.

The things in particular being talked about are memes about being trans, non-binary, etc. It's not even strangers talking about their genitals, it's people posting memes about being trans. They're really inoffensive memes too that are largely things like pointing out things from their childhood that made them realize they were different. I'm not into memes at all personally but like, how is that particularly upsetting, other then reminding you that people who are different from you exist?

i haven't logged into reddit for 5+ years and don't see hordes of femboys or whatever when i load up the front site to scan for news. maybe the odd meme every now and then, but mostly i just see current event news stories, memes about news stories, gaming stuff, and terrible webcomics on the first few pages. edit: oh yeah, and ragebait stuff like karen and cop encounters, of course this is baffling commentary. maybe they are using a browser fingerprint thing to show you targeted femboy content? i can't really think of any other explanation.

I love the idea that somehow reddit profiled you as someone who wants femboy content. It's just so absurd. Did it like show it to you once and you clicked and it was like "that's an engagement, put him in the femboy box" and now your reddit is ruined? Maybe someone in your household did something that got it assuming that everyone using that WiFi router wants femboy content? It's such a great mystery I must know more.
