I feel like all the niches I visit Reddit for are being enshittified.
Small ones are floundering, apparently due to being deprioritized by the engagement algorithms according to mods I’ve talked to? And even worse, a lot of discussion is moving to Discords and X.
Big ones are getting more karma farm style posts. I know people have always complained about this, but its never felt this bad in fandoms for shows and such.
I can’t comment with authority as I dont go there any more, but wouldn’t part of the reason be that many of the quality posters have left and its more spambots and karma farmers and worse mods than before? You can’t enshittify a platform and not expect it to get Whittier for users.
I’m surprised peopke are moving to x. Even public facing tweets from company’s that use x are blocked behind a log in.
This seems like the kind of change you would make before announcing another bigger change that you expect will attract significant uproar from the users.
I can see that there might be a need to ensure some consultation in a sub, such as a notice period. Especially so for users that might wish to delete their post and comment history before a sub goes NSFW or private, but this is just another step.
As if being an early adopter in selling all their content to train LLMs wasn’t enough to justify avoiding the place.
This is very cool. Wordpress also has activitypub integration. I would love it if I could comment “directly” on blog posts with a Mastodon (or Lemmy!) account.
They’ll never have the full Mastodon functionality because they’re Facebook. It’s always going to be a one way proposition where Masto can see them but they can’t see us. It’s honestly kind of like being a creepy Peeping Tom.
Assuming, of course, that your instance doesn’t block Threads. Many (most?) do. Some even block second-degree connections.
kbin.social/u/@potus you can follow him via this link (anyone else on other kbin instances, just adjust the link to your instance, assuming you aren’t defederated or if it isn’t bugging out atm on your server it should work)
Remember that federation is currently one way with threads. You and other fediverse users can see your own replies and boosts etc on their posts and interact with each other, but no one from threads can see your interactions or replies to them.
If you search for @potus he comes up and you can select Follow. Content should then show in the ‘Microblog’ stream. Might take a while to start flowing, though
Sounds like federation is more theoretical than real at this point. I don’t see much point in one way federation. But does this mean that threads users could pop into this thread and comment?
