Why would one though? All the bots are on Twitter now because in order to fight Bots, Elon encouraged massive abuse of bots and ChatGPT with his new monetization scheme that earns you money the more impressions and engagement you get on your posts.

True. To me, Lemmy feels somewhat more like the old vBulletin forums I used to browse 15 years ago.

Is it an unofficial reddit client? How are they getting around the API prices? Webscraping?

I tried only Jerboa and that’s what I stuck with. It loads fast and has every feature I want. Compare that to the official Reddit app, which is a slog on even high end devices. Seriously, what are they doing that it loads SO SLOW?

That’s why I kinda don’t like Python and JavaScript anymore. Every time I want types for a library it’s gonna take me time to get it working. For every serious project I do, I use a strongly typed language.

Can corporations fuck it up if they want to? Couldn’t we just migrate to a new instance and not federate? Or not federate with them from the beginning?

Thanks!

Tbh thats part of the reason I like to take many small amounts and spread them out over the year instead of few big chunks. This probably changes once you have kids I guess.

I tried to download a repository as a zip file but you can’t do that in code commit. That’s a problem in a big corp environment, where getting your local git credentials to work with codecommit is actually a very big hassle.
