I read this as "we don't want you, the user, to interact with our 100% user-content driven website that depends on your presence to keep having value".
Dogshit website anyway.
The fedora tells you everything.
I wear a fez now. Fezzes are cool.
I can't believe how often I have to say this.
There are a few communities on Reddit that aren’t represented on here. So I still go to Reddit some.
There might be very niche communities but Lemmy has grown so much in the last year. I would encourage you to search for whatever community you are looking for. You might not find the exact equivalent but you might find a good match.
For example, there may be a /r/3dprinteddildos on reddit but that won't exist here. But I am sure that the 3D community here can point you in the right direction.
Keep in mind how subreddit often got created: when the general community doesn't provide enough content for your niche, the niche community is developed.
/r/gonewild is a great example of this. It went from amateur porn to a cestpool of only fans content. Other subreddits were created to continue the way.
It's the same thing here: find a community that's close and post.
Lemmy is nowhere near the wealth of information available on Reddit. And if we're talking about hobbies, then literally no one gives a shit about Lemmy. The whole of the Fediverse has only 50k daily active users, most of them are on Mastodon. Lemmy is just a tiny fraction of those 50k. The main 3D printing sub alone has more active users than the whole Lemmy.
That leads to a situation where knowledgeable people from the industry and hobby leaders don't post anything here. I'm not even sure many of them even heard of it.
So, if you want some help or to learn something, you either go to specialised forums or to Reddit. Lemmy is for memes and throwing feces at each other. Which is fun.
I’m trying to convince people to check out Lemmy but it’s hard. People are so stuck in their ways. I’ll keep trying though
People are still on X even after their owner gave a Nazi salute on national television.
I've stopped casually browsing Reddit but sometimes it's the only way to get somewhat decent search results
At some point, the mistake was using Reddit to begin with.
It was the only search result relevant to my query.
That’s the problem isn’t it? We used to have forums where people discus things and blogs where people share what they’ve learned, now it is all Reddit and discord and absolute trash in between.
Does anyone else remember back in the early days of the internet when experts used to say, "The internet routes around problems".
I miss those early days.
To @daggermoon@lemmy.world , I see that a lot with searches now too but I just keep searching or find some other way around the problem. There's no way I click in to Reddit any more. You do you, but I'm saying there's always another option.
Just putting this out there, if you use startpage you can use the anonymous view feature to get around this :) Obviously avoiding reddit is better but if it's the only available resource...
When google started to index paywalled things.... I thought that was pretty evil. Showing google content but not normal internet users. Giving sites the ability to have their cake and eat it too.
When reddit decided to force logging in to see some subreddits on mobile, I decided they were evil.
This is why I'm on Lemmy posting content, we have to use open platforms if we want them to succeed. This is the first time I've used social media. I'm doing it as a civic duty
🤢🤮
Me too. I wrote a blog post about it with a similar title and would love some feedback. I'm sure it could be expanded even more to include stuff like this.
Nice blog you have there. I appreciate the content and will be passing it around a bit.
Appreciate that. Got a backlog of 200+ topics I still need to write about, so little by little.
At least they told you you're blocked, instead of just making random parts of it not work with zero communication
I always get that screen when I forget to turn off my VPN while accessing a reddit quote.
You should get a better VPN. Mine only gives me this rarely, often when I'm using a node that I can assume is where a bunch of prime would use to run bots.
I like Mullvad. Probably the only reason I get the error is there's one country that's a fav, but some sites don't like it because of its privacy restrictions ... which ofc is why it's my fav.
Yep, i get the same thing
Youtube also blocks me in a similar way.
For vpn use? Or what else?
I get that from searches on ddg, no vpn.
RDX still works, it the only way I can search reddit now
Using a firefox fork browser and sometimes a vpn.
file a ticket.
You have been permanatley banned from Reddit. if you feel this was a mistake, please use the appeal process
Yeah, I questioned the second and third temp bans they gave me. After the last (so, the third) they banned me. I suspect it's because I was asking.
Their reasons of course were bullshit, for every single ban (which they confirmed were correctly issued... Morons).
safereddit.com baby!
There's a firefox plugin that can translate to free frontend links and you could do that as well through pihole.
