I know a flight attendant who was scheduled to fly there today. The hotel they would've stayed at burned down.

Really awful to see. Hope there's minimal loss of life and they're able to rebuild quick, but I know there's gotta be a lot lost regardless.

Yeah I created a lot of content for reddit, so there's the part of me that as a creator wants to pull my content from a platform that I don't want to profit off of me any longer.

But there's also the part of me that has seen my content get reposted endlessly, which to me is always fun to see. And I want the originals to be available to people still.

It's a tough call. I stopped posting anything after the app shutdown, and have basically all but stopped using the site, so I hold no attachment to my account at this point, I'd just hate for all of my content to become harder to find.

Maybe I should just set up my own instance or even just a website with all my gifs and such.

Words mean things.

Yes and neoliberalism means something that you apparently are too lazy to click a link to learn.

You should educate yourself instead of continuing to argue against using a word you can't define.

Yup, same. I just need like a 3-12 month break every once in a while.

Yup. I stopped posting/commenting on reddit after third party apps were shut down, and now I'm fully on Lemmy.

Not deleting my reddit or anything yet, but reddit lost me, and I created lots of OC for that site. It'll be interesting to see, but anecdotally reddit feels like it's lost something since the shutdown. Maybe that's just me tho.

And as someone who lives right outside SF, yes it's one of the best cities for public transit in the US, but it can still take 2 hours to go somewhere that would take 30mins in a car.

Not all the time - sometimes it's just as fast as a car, but often enough that it's a deterrent.

And mind you, I live literally across the street from a train stop, so public transit is way more convenient for me than for most in the area.

I'm so hell-bent on customizing everything that I refuse to use anything other than custom Arch and end up hating myself for it.

Thank you. Millennials and Gen Z are the same mindless consumers that boomers were, by and large. It wasn't their generation, it was the bourgeoisie.

I mean it's a software developed by someone. If you don't feel like it's worth it then that's fine, but to many, Sync is worth the premium.

That's not hypocrisy. They're not advocating one thing and doing another.

If you don't like the ads don't use the app.

I stopped posting to Reddit, and nearly entirely stopped using it after the shutdown. I haven't bothered to switch to anything else, but now I'll be using Lemmy.
