That… Is so incredibly disruptive mentally and emotionally. It’s like being slapped in the face with a fish the size of a truck.

I can’t believe that actually helped at all. Holy shit.

Oh yeah. I totally missed that because I’ve seen this before. That’s actually pretty messed up.

My God. Multiple times I’ve been on that screen in the past. But every time, I’ll have no idea how I got there. I’ve tried to get back, but the best I had was on a magazine’s page at the very bottom.

Thank you for showing this.

My opinion? This is AWFUL design. That a second settings button is THERE is unbelievable. Maybe I’m not hip to how the fediverse exactly works, but this doesn’t feel like the right route to that stuff.

Oooooo… Yes that’s it. Thank you. That’s a good protip. I’m assuming that’s a setting that I probably turned off while trying to make the the All page be more compact.

Edit: I don’t know where that setting is. It’s not in my profile settings.

Are you using a mobile app?

I’m on the android chrome kbin app, annnnnd i think you meant to embed that? But lol… For me it’s the literal exact same bluetext hotlink

Fyi Feedback in case you were curious about other people’s experience:
On Android chrome kbin app, gif loaded into browser, image scaled to 1x and didn’t fill or stretch at all, preloaded on its own fine, had to click play, didn’t loop.

Reddit media always worked for me on Android baconreader. It had a few months sprinkled over the last ten or so years where random hosting sites or Reddit hosted media would choke, but it would always fix itself. I’m not sure how much of any of that is the app or the site or what.

This is the first I’ve heard of Ipfs and that looks VERY exciting…

Back in 2017 or whatever that North American solar eclipse was, I drove down to Bend Oregon to view it. After, there was bumper to bumper traffic almost the whole way north, back to Seattle, WA. There was literal bumper to bumper traffic from Bend, OR to Issaquah, WA. That was almost 350 miles and took basically an entire day. It was horrible having to pee on the side of the road in bumper to bumper traffic in the middle of nowhere. Protip? Don’t try to drink the Gatorade just to have a pee bottle.

Honestly, I’ve thought about that, too. Like what if electing trump was just a catalyst for good change? We see all the shitty stuff that we’re not immune to (no pun intended), and then steel our resolve to be better.

Frankly, I’d rather just be done with all the nonsense, but if the last several years have taught me anything, it’s that we are ALL dumb as fuck and need to work on ourselves, myself included. Humans just aren’t quite ready. We may be, someday… But right now, I think it’s best we learn to overcome what our problems are by looking deeply into a mirror and working on that.

I kinda wanted to be able to see that galactic civilization, but I’m now aware that we have never been ready for it, and need to stop pretending we don’t have issues and blind spots.

Yeah, huh. It’s weird how that happened. Disney, ruiner of many small companies and destroyer of the purpose of copyright law on a deeply greedy level, goes against a sociopath nazi white nationalist, probably kkk.

Ten years ago, I liked Disney stuff but hated what they’ve done to the freedom of law and ruining the opportunities of many.

But here we are, post-2016 trump era, the world is way, way worse, and my activist political aunt was right.

She said to me, back then at a family get together after dinner, that electing trump is an extremely scary thing and would be bad.

I asked her what’s the worst that could really happen.

She kinda stared back at me, as if to gauge what to say. Then said that he was the type of person that brings all the awful things out from under their rocks, and told me to keep my eyes open and pay attention, because if he got elected, the next 4 years will be the type of history that only happens once in a lifetime.

She was 100% serious, as if she could see the future. But she was just in her 60s, big gay, from DC, and confident and loud. I can still see the the look of dread and sorrow on her face as she said that to me, and I doubt I’ll ever forget it.

Power typically begets more power, and the only way to fix it is to forcefully bend it to your will over and over again. I can’t believe Disney is where our trust is for civil rights, but, I guess it can always be worse and Disney knows that and is using us for support. It’s not great.

Fuck spez.

It’s like boomer sociopaths grew old enough in their time, and were like “yeah, ruin everything, yeah yeah”. But then millennial sociopaths grew old enough and are now like, “hold my coke…” Can we reign this shit in for the future generations at least? Because it’s awful.

“Why even try?”

You don’t stand for much, do you?

Um. Strong disagree. Yeah it went about as badly as we all expected, but that doesn’t mean it’s good or okay.

In all honesty, reddittors should take down the servers as a form of protest. That’s always been a proper format of protest that’s the equivalent to picketing workers - disrupt production, bring it to a halt, and don’t go back to work until you get what you want. It doesn’t hurt anybody or any thing, and you show your power and value at the same time. It’s an inconvenient time for reddit’s pockets? Well maybe they should pull their heads out of their asses. Anything less is just a complaint, and in this day and age, when they have dollar signs for eyes, that don’t mean shit to this type of people.

If you wanna use might makes right as a founding logic for apathy and apologism, then cowards prepare assholes.

Reddit doing what they’re doing is the equivalent of forcefully removing picketers and you’re like, “it’s their business, they’ve always had the right.”
