Man, do I not miss reddit one single fucking bit. I have never once looked back since leaving in the first wave of APImageddon or whatever we're calling that. Every post I see or article I read just validates that decision.

reddit has always been risky in one way or another. When I first joined in 2013, it was 4chan-risky Now it's Facebook-risky, which is honestly much more ultimately harmful and nefarious than 4chan-risky, even if 4chan and facebook of today share a lot of the same trolls.

Billionaires want to herd us and all of our communications into these controlled networks for a number of nefarious reasons, but the reason that matters most to you and I right now is that they know that people need to communicate in order to coordinate, in order to stand up to oligarchy. Facebook isn't going to let people coordinate a general strike on its platform, and neither is reddit, or youtube, or any of these totally captured networks.

We need to own our comms, which means that the fediverse itself isn't sufficient either.

When I don’t have a password autogen something for me, I am still using a variant of my original autogenerated geocities password from my days on the SunsetStrip. I’ve just buttressed it with additional letters and numbers as password requirements have changed.

There he goes, off to write his hit song, Alone In My Principles.

No one knows.

There is no reason good enough to still be on the Meta hamster wheel in 2025. Facebook, insta, whatever. Get out as fast as you can.

Red meat for the base in desperation.

I cry almost every day.

Is there some kind of spice level:naughtiness correlation?

Solves the Florida problem at least.

It’s crazy how much memes have become like comic strips when you stop and think about it.
