I really shot myself in the foot downloading 4k60 versions of some of my favorite movies. The quality is great, but I can really only watch them on my gaming pc.
Making cute little infographics could help. Even Reddit had them way back when people didn't really "get" what all the voting was about or why people were so into bacon.
This is the oldest one I could find with a quick Google search, but I am sure there were older ones as well.
The subresdit /r/frugalmalefashion was really incredie for a while there, but it thrived in users posting good deals regularly and fair moderators keeping out inappropriate content (i.e. scams, predatory subscription services, and comments like "this isn't truly frugal!"). /r/buildapcsales was the same way
The best thing about reddit for me was an endless stream of information and news propped up by user discussion. I rarely just scrolled endlessly through posts; I loved delving into comments on posts which didn't even interest me at face value to see what I could learn from niche communities.
It was, hands down, the best, most information dense landscape I've ever seen and frankly I feel a little lost without it. I hope that some day, some where I can find something similar.
Not just porn! Since reddit only has one such tag you can apply to posts, many subreddits were using the NSFW tag for a wider variety of reasons such as spoilers, content which may contain unsettling material (aka "triggers"), and more!
While I understand what you're getting at, users can be viewed as "the product" if they are contributing content (posts, comments, votes, and other forms of engagement) and "the customer" if they are consuming this content in any way.
Without content or readers there would be no Lemmy, just like for Wikipedia with no editors or readers there would be no purpose for that site either. The terms "product" and "customer" aren't intrinsically related to monetary value.
Funny how you seem to believe that "checking stock prices" is a good use of a whole monitor but don't seem to see how literally any other task could benefit from having reference material up on a second monitor.
