    Hahahaaha wait, so like, they’re basically applying something that sounds an awful fucking lot like the CCP’s social credit score thingy to all of Reddit’s user data and metadata…?

    Jesus tapdancing christ. I’m happier by the day since I bailed on Reddit.

        Behold, Jesus was feeling particularly agile and motivated that day, so for that single moment in eternity, verily He said unto His holy self, “Holy self, today I’ma be a fucker AND a tapdancer.” And lo, so it was. Hence the recent confusion.

        It’s Jesus H. Christ and the H is for Harold, like his dad. As in, “Our Father, who art in heaven, Harold be thy name.”

      When ridiculing the dystopian mess that is the “social credit score” system in China it is good to always remember that it is called like that because it was based of the “credit score” system used in many libertarian countries, where it is regularly used to deny access to essentials of societal life, like housing, energy, and communication.

      If you use Lemmy like the news aggregator reddit started as then it is basically the same thing.
