keeeener

technically you aren’t wrong…

there was an APK teardown once the API changes happened that showed the following information because Reddit broke for a bit:

Android authority page on it here: link to article

Fake internet points are finally worth something! Now redditors can earn real money for their contributions to the Reddit community, based on the karma and gold they’ve been given. How it works: Redditors give gold to posts, comments, or other contributions they think are really worth something. Eligible contributors that earn enough karma and gold can cash out their earnings for real money. Contributors apply to the program to see if they’re eligible. Top contributors make top dollar. The more karma and gold contributors earn, the more money they can receive.

Not just anyone can be a contributor. To join and stay in the program, contributors need to meet a few requirements: Be over 18 and live in the U.S. Only Safe for Work contributions qualify Earn xx gold and karma each month Provide verification information. You must have at least 10 gold and 100 karma to begin verification. NSFW accounts aren’t eligible for the Contributors Program

Provide the following information to get verified for the program and start earning: Email Personal Information Tax and bank account information

Once you hit the payment threshold, you’ll automatically be paid out via your Stripe account. Approximate calculation before fees. Exchange rate and payment thresholds are subject to change

apparently these are already active in r/cryptocurrency and r/eth or w.e the Ethereum subreddit is…

definitely not looking good and I’m glad I switched to lemmy when I did

many thanks!!

what is the website again that we can check which games are supported in Linux and which aren’t?

it’s literally the only thing holding me back from switching but I need to triple check to make sure all good… don’t have any extra devices I can duel boot from ATM so it would be a full 100% switch

bro are you me 😂

I tell myself “I’m going to finally do X tomorrow”

tomorrow comes

“eh, maybe tomorrow”

repeat infinitely

if it’s Google they will just shut it down after 4 years anyway lol

to add to this, it only seems to happen when a post has enough comments to actually scroll, like this post. other posts with non scrolling amount of comments don’t seem to be affected

not sure if this is a feature or not but whenever you collapse threads and then scroll to the top of the post without pulling to refresh ( to confirm info OP says to comment on, etc), the app acts like it is entering a new post and un-collapses all threads when you scroll back down… almost like the app refreshes and doesn’t save preferences until you get out of the post

technically …

all things considered, I am very impressed by how each instance had held up given the ~2000% increase in users over the last few weeks… yeah some apps were a little slow or unusable for bits and pieces, but issues seem pretty non-existent from what I’ve seen personally… seems I made the correct decision to try out lemmy and I’m excited to see where it all goes from here :]

as someone currently looking into combo ADHD “tips” / helpful info, who is currently writing this at 3:30am and who needed to go to sleep hours ago, I feel this on a personal level…

also, TIL
