I just did about an hour ago. App updated with the new farewell message and the Sync for Lemmy sign-up, which I filled out, and then uninstalled. And then I uninstalled the official Reddit app, too. And Baconator, which I forgot I still even had.

I can't browse Reddit on my Xbox anymore! What a shame.

So you can sign up for a specific instance of lemmy or kbin, and then see and interact with any content from any other instance of the Fediverse, provided they have not defederated. Where things get a little weird is how upcoming apps will function. I was told that Sync for Lemmy will likely require you to have a Lemmy account to sign in, but will still allow you to browse and post to any Fediverse content. This may end up being just a short-term issue until developers can "line up API endpoints", whatever the Treknobabble that means.

I heard they are building a new orbital telescope. It has to be the most powerful one ever built to be able to detect your point.

The interface for Sync, as an example, made it much easier and more efficient to use. I would argue that 3P users use more calls because using those apps allow you to browse and interact far more effectively without cutting through the swaths of "He Gets Us" ads that Sync users never even had to see. Ultimately, I suspect that tha was the true reason for the API changes. Lost ad revenue. Judging by what I saw just today being stuck briefly on the official Reddit app and the website taking care of last minute issues after Sync went down, it's bad. Wall of ads.

Vicious, but true. I'm still struggling with whether or not I'm going to astroturf my comment history and delete my account. I see a lot of folks saying their comments were restored and then they had no way to log back in to delete them again. For now, I'm just going to leave my Reddit account dormant. I suppose it isn't super effective to leave my content there for Spez to benefit from, but I kinda feel like it does more harm to people just looking for answers than it ever will to Spez if I were to remove it. All around, this is just a ridiculously stupid situation we all find ourselves in over the whims of small minds chasing after big money. Again.

It could. Here's an interesting idea: make the film be the prologue to the entire series. Set the film at the very beginning of the timeline.

Absolutely. I've been hyperfixated in Wind Waker since I finished Skyward Sword. I don't want to buy an GameCube or a WiiU to play it again. The rumor is that Wind Waker and Twilight Princess have been completed for a few years now. I want Twilight Princess, but I need Wind Waker. It's probably my favorite game in the series, and definitely my favorite 3D game.

Looks like I need a Lemmy account!
