Work Reform
9856 readers

A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.
Our Philosophies:
- All workers must be paid a living wage for their labor.
- Income inequality is the main cause of lower living standards.
- Workers must join together and fight back for what is rightfully theirs.
- We must not be divided and conquered. Workers gain the most when they focus on unifying issues.
Our Goals
- Higher wages for underpaid workers.
- Better worker representation, including but not limited to unions.
- Better and fewer working hours.
- Stimulating a massive wave of worker organizing in the United States and beyond.
- Organizing and supporting political causes and campaigns that put workers first.

The image provider of Reddit doesn't hide images behind an API or any authorization layer. It's basically free especially if the Lemmy instance has a flat fee for bandwidth usage
That’s a surprise, considering Reddit’s whole API meltdown. I appreciate the answer.
APIs can be used to fetch specific data. A link to an image is literally just a link to an image, the server isn't having to gather the data to send like an API would.
The thumbnail, which I didn’t bother to check until a few minutes ago, offered the impression that Lemmy fetches data differently. It’s not a thumbnail, it’s the full size image. Every comment here has fleshed out my understanding a bit more. Thank you.
