My eyes glazed over before I finished the first paragraph

NFT technology will not go away. It will be in a different form, not trading cards with shitty jpegs attached

Hippo would drag him into the water and drown him in a death roll

I wonder what Fruit Fucker looks like these days

Against the Grain

Internal Combustion

Sea People: The Puzzle of Polynesia

These all caused me to examine aspects of modern society that we usually just accept blindly

Great list!

Ah yeah I forgot about that!

Firefox was long the No 2 browser, then Chrome came along at the time that Google was cool and they actually marketed it with TV ads. It looked cooler and more modern, it had some innovative features… Firefox never recovered

Different states have different laws. It’s a farce

I doubt there are many Chinese people here. It’s difficult to access sites like this without a VPN, which is illegal to have without government approval. Moreover, the vast majority of people in China don’t know VPNs exist and it’s illegal to spread information about VPNs on social media like Wechat.

If anyone on Lemmy is Chinese, it’s likely they are working directly for the government or some SOE. I assume there will be people here from CGTN, China Daily, et al., but the platform isn’t big enough yet.

When I worked at China Daily, my friend ran the social media accounts, which meant he had a special VPN at the office, or used a specific computer in the newsroom, probably controlled and monitored by admins. My office computer had no VPN, so I couldn’t access anything like Twitter or Reddit.

Yeah this is my mindset too.

I came to Reddit from Slashdot, like, a couple of months before the Digg exodus. It was cool to see it grow so quickly and become the hot new thing, but a lot of the more established users were quick to note the changes in culture. It probably took me those few months just to figure out how the UI worked. It was and is a website of mediocre design.

I always preferred Slashdot and its moderation system, but I’m far too much of a dilettante for its narrow range of conversation topics. I never cared for Digg. It felt too safe.

I know Eternal September brings problems but the large user base at Reddit made sure there was always fresh content and all kinds of weird subreddits. Too bad they went corporate.

It’s very similar to old Reddit

Reddit eventually got super-specific subs because so many people showed up and made more and more niche content that suited the needs of subgroups in communities. For example, lots of big subreddits banned memes, prompting the rise of specific shitposting groups
