Greed.

The answer is always Greed.

What profit is my government(Greek) going to have by doing this? Nothing, so obviously it’s not gonna be done.

If everything is because of profit, then nothing works.

Here you go:

If you are not a European citizen you cannot ask for your data to be deleted but you 100% can report a company, in this context Reddit, for not complying with GDPR.

The controller should use all reasonable measures to verify the identity of a data subject

Huge emphasis on reasonable. If by asking me to log in for the sake of verification results in me not being able to delete my data as I’ve demonstrated above, then this is 100% NOT REASONABLE.

They are actively hindering the process that GDPR requires me to take.

I don’t care about the small letters, this is a GDPR violation. I should have an easy way to delete my data and this ain’t it.

GDPR applies to people in European Economic Area whose data is used by companies,

I am in Greece. I am protected by GDPR.

I have already sent a GDPR request to Reddit and they refuse to comply.

I asked them to delete everything they have about me, including my account and they told me that I need to login into reddit and ask it from there which:

1. I don’t have to since GDPR says that I can even do it verbally and I don’t even have to write to a specific email, I can just let any employee of that company that I want this and they should honor it.
2. They straight up don’t even have the option to delete your data there, since I requested for the complete erasure of my data as that is also in my rights.

Reddit literally refuses to comply with GDPR rules and tonight after work I am going to lodge a formal complain about GDPR violations as I do have proof of this in my emails.

Fuck Reddit I hope it crashes and burns.

Different subreddits had different rules. In some subs you needed loads of karma to post.

Karma farming was also used to bump up the account so that it could be sold to malicious buyers for propaganda or spam posting purposes.

It’s also the reason I don’t play No Man’s Sky(apart from the bait and switch launch).

People don’t play Bethesda games because they are good sims but because they are good RPGs.

If they pivot to a sim/building type game then I don’t think people will like it.

While it is neat I don’t see it offering a good user experience.

The reason this shouldn’t be in here, in a forum platform, is that if you go to the front page and try to read new it keeps bouncing up and down because it’s constantly updating.

This comment is incorrect as well.

The people that cared left and what’s left behind is people that wouldn’t leave anyway and the strike only bothers them.

This person is living in a bubble and can’t see further than their nose.

We need to document this and make sure everyone knows what reddit is doing.

There’s been a lot of posts both here and on reddit saying that mentions of kbin and/or lemmy get deleted or the users/subs get outright banned, like /r/redditMigration, which had 2 posts and got banned for spam.

Regardless of the outcome of the strike, Reddit already has died. The users that matter won’t go back. The users that stay will be media and a large pool of lurkers with no value to the community.

Reddit as we knew it, already died.

Reddit has been banning users and/or communities that redirect others to Lemmy.

Yeah the non-commercial part just destroys the entire announcement. Mods could just use a community made bot that they bought for like $5 and be done with it.

Since this will be now against the ToS, no one will be bothered to develop these tools for free, to move around.

This is a worthless post.

These and others are why you’re finding me with you here in the fediverse.

I’ve been here for a week and it already feels like home!

Squabbles

Isn’t this developed by one person, isn’t open source and forbids NSFW in general? That is never going to go well.

Tildes

No mobile app and no ActivityPub so it’s a very specialised. Additionally I don’t like the UI at all and I’ve read this in multiple threads here as well.

Lemmy + Kbin

Both are show the same content as they are federated so it’s up to who prefers what really. I prefer Lemmy, but anything is fine.

And in the web app, above the comment it says Show context.

This is completely wrong.

You think allowing users to express their opinions is wrong contrary to gathering people of one opinion only?

I don’t think there is a further point to be made in here.

Regardless of the outcome, I hope Reddit’s recent decisions turn in /r/leopardsatemyface.

mainstream media will discover Lemmy exists.

Mainstream media will 100% catch up more by the reveal of Meta’s Twitter alternative that implements the ActivityPub protocol.

Why would I bash against Nintendo?

People like to bash Nintendo because of them going legally against fans that decide to revive older games that no longer available to be played using legal and/or official means.

This is really a gray area and people agree/disagree on this.

If for example OOT is not able to be played at all but a dude hacks the code and puts it on an emulator, then is that wrong or not?

Legally it’s wrong, but there’s an argument to be made that since Nintendo doesn’t offer this game, technically their are not losing profit.

Ultimately it’s a totally gray area and civil discussion on the topic should be welcomed and not suppressed, ever.
