Yeah, I thought Soulseek went the way of Limewire and Kazaa when things like Pirate Bay and whatnot became go-to sites…
I mean, back in the day it was amazing, anything I wanted I could just about find. Random One Hit Wonder Japanese pop-punk band that I only heard about in passing? Yeah I could find their whole discography on Soulseek. It was awesome. I wish I could remember that band now..
We do have Social Security that gets paid into, but it’s not a whole lot and if Republicans get their way, they will siphon the money meant for our generation in order to fund frivolous things like walls.
For me it was a quarterly town hall with hospital leadership and they kept pushing “we are a business…” and all I could think was “no, we are a hospital…” because being a business is indicative of being profit motivated. I know, I know, that’s exactly what it is, but it just really bothered me to hear that line over and over.
Yeah, I was working contract, contract ended abruptly and now I’ve been out of a job since September. Despite the amount of layoffs happening in tech, it seems a lot of other industries are holding on to people.
I think I read the stat that in 2022 LinkedIn had 1 job posted for 1 person searching, in 2023 they had 1 job posted for every 2 people searching according to their research team. Companies can be more selective with an over abundance of applicants, miss qualified ones with floods of resumes, or just straight fly “just in case” postings.
This has been the roughest few months of my life, and I’ve done a combat tour in Iraq.
I think it’s possible. Tinker with the features, do some mockups, explore everything, “this is a great app, now if I can just get everything rolled over to this..” and then you don’t because it takes a moment of effort and then you forget.
Happens to me all the time. You can think an app is great, but haven’t had a chance to fully use it. Like I’m a huge fan of ClickUp for keeping things on track, but I also have adhd which means I end up forgetting to use it. Great app, crappy brain.
Are they back in decent form at all? Me and my partner stopped watching a long time ago due to the downward spiral of their content quality and editing. It just became more of “how many times can we roll our eyes over the course of a video” than anything else.
Which sucks because our mutual enjoyment of them (among other things) was one of the things that brought us together.
(For reference, I started watching around 2012, her around 2016, and we stopped watching somewhere in 2019)
I just checked it out because of this post, and I'm not really sold. It just seems... off? to me. Like the whole comments right next to the post thing and what not just made it more of a distraction than anything. I mean, it could be my adhd preventing me from focusing, but I just could feel myself becoming overwhelmed within the 5-10 minutes I was looking through it. I feel that lemmy/kbin is definitely more Reddit-like, and personally, less overwhelming. Good concept, maybe not-so-good execution for some people.
Got it working! Thanks!
I’ll have to give this a try! Does it work on any instance or just the one that you use?
And not just minor NSFW subs, but some of the biggest ones that probably drove a lot of revenue for content creators outside of Reddit. They literally are killing off revenue streams in protest. That’s a big thing that people who are affected by it will remember.
Yea, similar to Tumblr, they fell hard and now people use it dramatically less than before their NSFW decision to the point that now that they’ve allowed that content again no one really cares. Tumblr will always be seen as “the website that died after banning NSFW content.”
It’s quite possible Reddit will be seen as “the website that died because they backstabbed third party developers.”
Surely you mean Sherman?
Custer was the bigot a**hole who decided to pick a fight he couldn’t win with native Americans at Little Big Horn.
Sherman was the general who set fire to the south and razed the land from Georgia to the sea.
