The Reddit post specifically mentions Kbin and why the OP prefers Lemmy. Mentioning Lemmy specifically and not the Fediverse/Threadiverse is the point

I guess you could say the people who actually moved away from Reddit aren't on /r/RedditAlteratives anymore

Is that a CC license for your comment? I wonder if it actually works, legally, because I do like the idea that (for example) commercial LLMs wouldn't be allowed to train on my comments.

We're already that close to Mastodon in user count? Wack

Huh, every time I hear about the trolley problem it's always "now imagine that instead of pulling the lever, you need to push someone onto the track so the trolley stops after that first collision." Some people would pull the lever but not push someone onto the tracks, and that's where it gets interesting.

I don't really expect 4channers to have reasonable opinions on moderation, the whole reason it's the way it is is because of lax moderation

The study found some (likely) bot/corporate troll content in 15% of the top 100 subreddits.

I thought you were saying this about Millennials and Gen X and I was going to agree, ha. Understandably but not helpfully apathetic

Don't you love it when they're not even made by humans, but it's just bots copying the top comment from the last time it got posted

Feels very relevant to the fediverse, with how people tend to compare it to email.

A specific phobia to water is called aquaphobia instead.

Please be lying, the only thing worse than mixing Latin and Greek is using words that mean the exact same for different things

What's up Syndrome?

As if, people still can't agree if zero is a natural number either

6 / 2 * 3

Semi-related: something in me wants to read that as 6 / (23), because 6 3 / 2 feels like a much more 'natural' way to write it
