OpenStarsYet another article about Reddit vs. Lemmy vs. others: "Discussing Three Reddit Alternatives After Reddit's API Decisions"

southsamuraiThey included beehaw. But not as a lemmy instance. Facepalm
fearoutNo mention of kbin either
It almost seemed like it was written as a favor to Squabbles, except the owner of Squabbles himself did not seem to know about it until today.
I strongly hesitated posting such shoddy journalism. Maybe I should have hesitated more strongly still:-). - e.g. no mention of Meta also? :-P
Except I do find it interesting to hear more people discussing Reddit alternatives outside of Reddit and those alternatives themselves. The wider world may still not be aware of what Reddit even is, much less recent issues with it, but then there is the occasional article that mentions Lemmy and I think that is cool!:-D (even if as @fearout mentioned, it fails to mention Kbin, which I posted this from)
I’m still waiting for some major news outlet to write a piece about Fediverse in general. It’s odd that it’s either glossed over in one sentence or not even mentioned at all.
Step 1: brace yourself, go get your puke bucket.
Step 2: (wait, are you sure that you have your puke bucket handy? warning, there are PICTURES in this thing!) Now, read this.
Step 3: go clean your puke bucket. You are welcome.
Warning: those who may be offended by seeing a picture of the Zuck and the Musk - combined with NO MENTION WHATSOEVER OF LEMMY (or Beehaw, or Kbin, etc.) on an article ostensibly explaining "the fediverse", may be advised to not read this little gem.
Yeah, not mentioning even a single instance when writing about Fediverse is pretty shit journalism. I was expecting something much worse after reading your preparation steps though :) At least factually it’s not really incorrect.
(It was the pictures that made that effect for me - yup, Zuck & Musk are all that matter, in the end)
thingsiplay@southsamurai I'm currently cringing.
ThatOneKirbyMain2568Daily reminder that /kbin apparently doesn't exist and that the kbin.social in my username is just a hallucination.
Semi-Hemi-DemigodDon’t let folks know about Kbin or it’ll start having load issues.
Big brain move time. Is there a way to get only high-quality content providers while keeping out low-effort stuff? Ofc that would knock me out too - who would ever want to be a member of a club that would actually accept us? :-P
