Thank you kindly

I could definitely google it , but what fun is there in that. I’m, can you find it in the dictionary?

There’s that word again Enshittification, what a fine addition to the English language. Yeah it’s amazing how the lure of big money changes one’s principles, like that hipster coffee roaster that threw you out for asking for a sugar. Now worth a few billy in the instant coffee trade.

I’m so screwed. But they will be pleased to know my colonoscopy showed a very clear ileum.

Yes that has to be proof that it’s automated( not sure if that’s official knowledge?) but that’s pretty ridiculous. I wonder if you said Punch him, would the result have been any different?

The content retention is another very thought provoking point. I’ve also deleted stuff and it reappears. I thought it was my dodgy internet connection lol. Tampermonkey is such a great name, not sure what it does but they named it well.

This is the stuff I was craving. Have you thought about this before?

[–] Mr_Mr111@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

This also makes a lot of sense, playing to the masses.

I only know toys r us. But I get the picture. So, did Reddit gain a new investor? Officially? I’m not clued up on the inner workings

[–] Mr_Mr111@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

Hearing ideas like this is exactly why I posted this. Thanks for the contribution, Elon plus Reddit could be interesting…

[–] Mr_Mr111@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

But so many at the same time? Because seems to be a definite spike, and mods have been power tripping forever. That concept is pretty funny on its own, oh the power one must feel 🤣

Is Enshitification a real word? You’re not the only one to use it. Haha. Yeah very few get into business to not make money.

 

I think the majority of people here understand the new issues with Reddit, but today it struck me that there must be a bigger plan. Almost everyone has a “not sure why I was banned” story. Then there’s the severely limited new user journey that needs to be followed in order to eventually become able to “freely” use Reddit. Eg. You can only post in these groups or can’t comment on this etc. All in the name of spam prevention, apparently.

But what if it was more about something else, eg. At some point they l announce that paying for a Reddit premium account allows you to be unbanned and free to do whatever you want.

What other reasons or ideas can you think of, that mass banning users, (some with years of age and contributions, some of them mods.) could be the first step in a plan to capitalize. It might be very obvious to some , I’d like to hear what you think.

It just seems like actively killing your brand is too stupid of an idea for the Reddit creators.

Also… think of how many new users are sent to post on a selected list of sub Reddits , because they have no restrictions. Why would anyone looking to grow their sub Reddit not want to be on that list, yet it’s so limited. Who decided the list? Why?

There is always a bigger plan.

 

What did they do and what did you do back? And do you stand by it to this day?

 

Incredible song writer with a really unique / sad story. Wondering if you’ve heard of him?
