I just looked at their pinned post and it’s 100% satire and I’d you think otherwise you’ve never been on satire sub before

What’s Not True

1. Mr. Huffman has never lied or been dishonest. He has been 100% forward throughout this whole process.

2. That apps “can’t afford” to pay the reasonable fees Mr. Huffman is requesting. Many of them are embroiled in inefficiency, and even the highest cited api costs on their part have still been well within reason.

3. Mr. Huffman’s actions won’t “kill” reddit. In fact, the changes he id making are necessary to ensure that reddit continues to thrive.

For all these reasons and many more, we at /r/FriendsofSpez #standwithhuffman, and you should too!

It kinda is. It’s made by one of the devs

When were you when when Reddit die

I was sat at home play Minecraft when Chris ring

‘API is did’

‘no’

And you?

Firefox because it’s one of the last browsers against the Chromium monopoly.

Also UBlock Origin is wayy better on Firefox, even before Google forced their version of Manifest v3 on all Chromium based browsers.

What a scam. Here in Germany it’s more expensive but not by much

I want hyperspecific niech content that just isn’t on any smaller platform. I rarely use Instagram and mainly use reddit and sometimes use Twitter.

I want that kind of content on other platforms that I get on reddit. Certainly people from reddit aren’t going to migrate to an Instagram made alternative for Twitter but I want more content like more shitposting and guides I could only find on reddit and 4chan (and I fucking hate 4chan)

Not just circlejerk about how good the fediverse is and how bad Twitter and big tech is. Certainly the only people who currently use these alternatives are people who care about federation and people who are sceptical to big tech. That’s also my problem with Hive/Steemit because the only thing they’re talking about is how great the blockchain is.

Whenever I find someone who does something I’m interested in I can be sure that he either has a Twitter and/or Instagram account. If that person has a Mastodon account they probably aren’t as active as on other platforms

Will Instagram users change this? I don’t know. Might they make it worse? I also don’t know. The only thing I know is that you need more users to have a more diverse kind of content. And I know how easy it is to hate on Instagram but there’s also a large amount of relevant content.

Honestly that would be a bad idea. This might actually push Mastodon into mainstream and makes it more accessible for non technical people. That also of cause means more content and I’m all for that. The only reason I haven’t started to actively use Mastodon or Lemmy is because there just isn’t enough content.
