MODERATORS
Someone should create a leaderboard of websites sharing data with the most "partners", this week I saw someone on Mastodon posting a screenshot of a website sharing to 1700+ third-parties.
My faulty memory tells me 9gag has somewhere around 3000 or so. But I worked with a lot of numbers recently so I have no idea how accurate that is.
The most shocking thing about that is that 9gag still exists. How far has it degraded?
You say that like 9gag had a quality site at one point
It had some funny meme and your browser didn't freeze after scrolling for 5 minutes. That's already 1 point for 9gag
Edit: this was around 2015. No idea how 9gag looks like now
Incel paradise since all the decent people left
I remember when it didn't have infinite scroll, and only nine posts per page - that's where the name came from.
There's a lot of anti-stuff going around there. Let's just say that even if it were possible, federation with 9gag is definitely a hard pass from both sides.
If it's anything like iFunny, the comment section is likely horrific enough to contest 8chan
EW.
Just clicked it and opened their USA page. Racist drivel.
And disabled protections but couldn’t get it to pop up a tracker notice.
