[–] June@lemm.ee 15 points 3 years ago (3 children) Wait what? What happened? permalink fedilink source hideshow 6 child comments replies: [–] WtfEvenIsExistence@reddthat.com [S] 105 points 3 years ago (3 children) Nothing happend at Reddit Frontpage on June 12, 2023. The so called "protests" is a hoax invented by the Lemmy devs attempting to discredit our wonderful platform. The "purge of moderators" never happened, not one single moderator was purged. And those who did get purged are violent rioters internet vandals. Reddit is the greatest platform ever, and Lemmy is filled with racists and spammers and ads and evil developers trying censor posts and take away user freedom. Long live CEO Spaz!

You mean the place where it's famous for nothing ever happening? Just like nothing ever happened on Reddit. 😉 permalink fedilink source parent [–] Balthazar@sopuli.xyz 3 points 3 years ago I wanna learn how to do this on the fly now. Perfect way to give TTRPG players info without telling them :D Thanks for the inspiration! permalink fedilink source parent [–] yukichigai@kbin.social 35 points 3 years ago (3 children) They're replacing gold with "Community Points", which are of course built on THE BLOCKCHAIN and are specific to the subreddit, but also if you get enough you can have more direct control over the subreddit or... something? Mostly it sounds like a thinly veiled system designed to let people spend money to buy influence over a subreddit. But hey, it's crypto-based so that makes it cool, right? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 6 child comments replies: [–] indomara@lemmy.world 25 points 3 years ago (1 child) Holy shit... If people can buy influence, then the political nutbags that already influence social media through bot accounts will now be able to directly use their money to further push their agendas unfettered... I am so glad I jumped ship when I did. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] flipthetube@lemmy.world 7 points 3 years ago (1 child) Likewise.

The express train to bot town is now loading!" permalink fedilink source parent [–] explodicle@local106.com 9 points 3 years ago This is a joke even to crypto bros. The whole point of a blockchain is to resist censorship; slapping it on top of an already centralized server accomplishes nothing because it still has a weak point. Try making a revolutionary subreddit and see how long it lasts. We need a decentralized system, but the servers don't need to sync up in perfect lockstep like the monetary system does. Anybody who understands these things should be using Lemmy! permalink fedilink source parent [–] Default_Defect@midwest.social 2 points 3 years ago Finally deleted my account over this, haven't touched it otherwise in a while and have been using Lemmy instead, but this pushed me over the edge. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Nakoichi@hexbear.net 8 points 3 years ago (1 child) Yes I want to know too permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] June@lemm.ee 13 points 3 years ago (1 child) Found it: https://816am.ddns.net/post/6468 Fuckin wild shit lmao.
