A few podcasts I listen to have switched to calling their bluesky handles out instead of their twitter handles in their outros. I’ll probably install it and delete ex/twitter when I get an invite.

He also shrieked about bots, and now he parades his own around.

I’m not familiar with code.golf but I wonder how whitespace is handled? I find python is very concise anyway, but I wonder how the white space is counted (single tab, four spaces for black, etc).

You just need to be a moderator of any subreddit. The subreddit itself doesn’t need to be NSFW. The idea is that moderators could have a need to evaluate NSFW content on user profiles to make moderation decisions.

There’s an update that makes you login again. It installed for me yesterday. After the update get an annoying locked post from u/redditmaturecontent telling you to go to Reddit access NSFW content now.

Oh, that’s interesting. I was hoping a scraper would emerge. Stealth’s scraper (currently) doesn’t seem to actually display content that is marked nsfw. Maybe they haven’t yet figured out how to detect/accept the confirm 18+ barrier on old.reddit.com.

Leverage for what purpose? To fix reddit? Let reddit die or not die.

Reddit has always come after mirrors and they will easily get courts to take down the instances. Don’t forget that prior to the API change they came after pushshift.

Additionally, anyone mirroring reddit on the moral basis that the content is owned by the creators and reddit is an exploitative rentseeker, has an obligation to not become a rentseeker themselves. This means things like ensuring that content that users voluntarily delete is also deleted in the mirrors. Reddit in fact had a large battle with pushshift about this years ago such that pushshift supposedly now only keeps history of moderator and admin edits. I agree with that ethically.

And in many cases you may be legally required to do this. To be clear Reddit made pushshift change to respecting user delete requests because of legal exposure and compliance risks.

Not to mention that you don’t really know that anyone intends their content to be mirrored on sites they do not use. Particularly now that Reddit seems to be forcing private subreddits to be open. There’s no moral high ground for doing this.

I don’t like the idea. It seems like those fake websites that scrape stackoverflow and SEO to ruin Google search. Avoiding those sites are among the reasons people type “reddit” into searches. People want authentic interactions and I think mirroring reddit into Fediverse lacks authenticity and undermines its authenticity. Content here should be from people who are here.

If someone wants to assimilate content from reddit into something new and post it here that’s good. That means the person is here and can be interacted with.

If someone wants to repost their own content here, that’s also fine. They are here to interact with.

I just really think it’s a bad idea to deliberately build a ghost town and think people will move in.

I’m left unsure whether DBMS is fun sex for dyslexics, or BSDM is a dyslexic database.

The less obvious answer is Roko’s Basilisk.

Basically it’s what they have decided to disclose to law enforcement. So at best it tells you the baseline capabilities of law enforcement.

I thought that at first too based on the icons, but if you read the text it reveals Telegram has the ability to provide IP address (if they can be convinced to).
