Why would Reddit give a crap about Apollo related content when they themselves are putting Apollo out of business? Like, if you really don't care about the third party apps, then just continue to keep your back turned and just ignore them. Jeez.

I wrote code for industrial automation years ago (think assembly line machines). I was reviewing production code and found a stupid bug and fixed it, then reinstalled. The motors moved incorrectly - I don't recall if that was the time it smashed glass everywhere, but "fixing" the code definitely broke the program. I could not figure out why...but due to time constraints I sadly had reinsert the bug to put the machine back in production.
Some nights that still bothers me.
Okay then, I can upload a picture, but I still can't figure out how to upload a profile picture. One step at a time, Fediverse.
Fell down the rabbit hole of great links in this article that led me to others and others, and the whole concept of enshittification. Wow. Glad I lifted by tired Reddit head out of the sand. Still going through some withdrawals, but enjoying poking around Kbin, Mastodon and Squabbles the last few days.
This is a good idea. I joined Mastadon with the influx last November, got confused and didn't return until the current Reddit debacle. I'm trying harder now to understand, but what would have helped was 1) a simple guide to getting logged in and 2) finding content and 3) being able to view it and reply (including understanding if I was supposed to use hashtags, etc.). Get someone started with a short list of popular communities/magazines, THEN show them how to branch out. #trainingwheels
I was confused by "instance instances" in the first starred note.
Yup, the API debacle sent me searching and the AMA solidified it. Checking out Kbin today in advance of tomorrow's blackout. Hoping to be able to contribute here and help get this off the ground!
Another refugee here checking things out, figuring out how to share and interact. Boy I'd love to contribute on the development side by my coding expertise is definitely dated, lol.
Yup, was at a party last night and of course someone had to mention the holiday in the US tomorrow (Juneteenth) with "A most ridiculous excuse for a holiday, but that's another discussion" right in the middle of a harmless conversation. Like he just had to say it.
