Reddit mods have a habit of blocking/censoring views they don't agree with, (mainly all on one side, consistent with their ideology). That doesn't mean it applies to every subreddit, but if it weren't a widespread proble

That would be waste to remain healthy enough to live to 100, then kill yourself. Mental health is a part of living that long in the first place. Anybody who has the mentality that they'll just kill themselves once they reach that age,

1. Don't automatically click on short links. There are plenty of url expanders online that you can copy & paste the link into that will tell you where the link goes. 2. Be very carefully clicking on links you don't already tru

I would've never guessed Brazil (or any country for that matter) would be like that. I guess I can see why if medics depend on that for their income, but I certainly would've never guessed they would act so aggressive about it. It

Honestly that's probably the only thing I would use either of these for.

I assume this is a joke, right? A real shady url certainly wouldn't use https.

This is why I don't & never will have a reddit account. I have heard the mods are very quick to ban people & even whole subreddits for ridiculous reasons. That & security reasons. It's astonishing how much personal inf

Now that flash has been phased out, this doesn't work. Is there a non-flash alternative?

I disagree. You should be a member of a party because they share your views, not the other way around.

Some of the problems mentioned in the article could already be solved with gmail. To find out who sent you an email, append a "+[keyword]" & use that email to signup for a service. If you only use 1 site per keyword you will k

It differs from mastodon because it's on the blockchain & mastodon isn't. The problem is I don't see why that's better. Being on the blockchain also means a (less than a penny) processing fee, just as a standard BTC&

"Delay" is the key word. Not prevent. Any service big enough too attract more than "fringe" users will start seeing spammers eventually.

Are there any sites that are a complete alternative to reddit instead of just a different frontend? I found https://dev.lemmy.ml/ , but they don't seem at all concerned about privacy. They have no privacy policy, so I f
