$19 billion seems high.

And what does that make Android’s whole point? 😉

I know it doesn’t make sense, but can’t blame the guy, he probably went to school in Florida

Sweden’s response:

This; keep in mind that Rexxit is still ongoing and there are a lot of new arrivals here. So it makes sense that the pain of departing Reddit as well as adjustment pains settling into the Fediverse will be a theme for a while. As people get used to the new way of things, I have no doubt these “meta” issues will naturally become stale.

What? Can’t they get defederated if it’s this obvious?

what, for real? I thought it had a porthole or something

Could they have handled this whole situation any worse?

I can’t say I’m shocked, but I am disappointed. But at the same time - Lemmy/Kbin is the answer. This is the way.

Reddit is deaddit. Long live the glorious Lemmy-Kbin Continuum.

Me too, but I think the Reddit and Lemmy APIs are sufficiently different that he would effectively have to rebuild most of the app. I have high hopes for https://github.com/buresdv/Mlem, I’m in the TestFlight, but it’s too incomplete to actually use currently. Still, I’ll miss Apollo itself far more than Reddit.

That would be https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected] specifically

Having already rather violently shot himself in both feet, spez has started aiming for his other body parts.

I’ve never understood the need to militantly oppose others’ personal situations when they have no impact on your own. Even playing devil’s advocate - what is the point of the hate? You don’t believe in gender identity, then don’t personally be trans. The fact that others may be would seem to have literally zero impact on you or your life. Why should Lemmy accommodate negativity that does real harm to people in sensitive circumstances?

For instance, when I look at the list of comments on this thread sorted by both Hot and New, directly on Lemmy.ml versus on my home instance of Lemmy.pt, I don’t see the same set of comments. Not all of the ones from Lemmy.ml appear to have made it over to my instance. Is there some sort of eventual consistency mechanism in the system?

One question I still have is how quickly posts and comments propagate across the Fediverse. How can I be sure the comment I’m writing actually shows up across other instances, and how long after I write it does it take on average to show up other places?
