Reddit is removing the DM feature in c/reddit@lemmy.world
[–] Tag365@lemmy.world 11 points 3 months ago (4 children)

Wait, how did they delete bad reviews for their app? That doesn't even seem like it should be possible or allowed.

thoughtbot is pausing activity on X and Meta (they are on mastodon, RSS, other platforms) in c/fediverse@lemmy.world

That's pretty stupid, also why is Meta blocked all of a sudden?

Internet forums are disappearing because now everything is Reddit and Discord. And that's worrying. in c/fediverse@lemmy.world

Yeah, forums were pretty cool!

Strange. Lemmy was the real entry point for me to enter the Fediverse.

Shocking News: Reddit has trademarks for forum names like "Explain Like I'm Five" registered on USPTO. (tsdr.uspto.gov)

I thought stuff like "Explain Like I'm Five" and "AMA" was proprietary to the community, or at least the Reddit community, not Reddit as a company.

I checked and I found at least those subreddit forum names were registered as trademarks.

  • TODAY I LEARNED (TIL)
  • SHOWERTHOUGHTS
  • EXPLAIN LIKE I'M FIVE
  • NOSLEEP
  • AM I THE ASSHOLE?
  • IAMA
  • RPAN (actual subreddit name is R/PAN but they messed up the word mark for the registration I think.)
  • ASK REDDIT (makes sense since this includes Reddit's name.)
  • NATURE IS FUCKING LIT (I thought you couldn't register word marks with swearing but I guess I'm wrong. Must be only for offensive terms then...)
  • ASK ME ANYTHING (yes somehow this "generic term" is a trademark now...")
  • AMA
  • ELI5

Also they have some trademark registration applications for WALLSTREETBETS that have not been finalized yet.

How do we combat Google Chrome being Internet Explorer 2.0?

Feels like I need to reboot my iPhone daily in order to keep applications and tabs from being terminated from out of memory issues as quickly.

Now we gotta have websites developing for all web browsers instead of Google Chrome like it's Internet Explorer 2.0.

You created this server?

Happy 16th anniversary, #fediverse! in c/fediverse@lemmy.world

This has been going on for 16 years? I thought it was started in the mid or late 2010s.

There's apparently a Reddit activity streak achievement system now. (lemmy.world)
 

I just noticed this when I saw a strange "Achievement Unlocked" notification pop up on Reddit. What do you think of this? It seems like a retention tactic to me, like what Amino had with its streak leaderboards, and GameFAQs currently has with streak achievements for logging on ten days in a row and also for all days of a month.

So why doesn't a random follower posting a link on Mastodon cause server load issues, but a popular follower does?

Looks like it might be cool to have.
