I've read that Aaron Swartz was tolerant of free speech in any way shape form, thus the acceptance of anything under the sun.

Ditto ibid likewise. Well not the part about being high. ;) Signed up the moment rumblings about reddit being on the way out really began to gain in volume. Had heard about how daunting this place was to suss - are you kidding me? That's all either propaganda, or whining from people who have been spoon fed everything imaginable for their entire lives.

I literally refuse to figure out what Instagram/Snapchat/Spotify are. Don't know, don't care, no one I know bothers with them, who gives a shit? [shakes fist at sun]

On desktop I use FoxScroller, a scrolling extension, which barely works now - but I'm probably the only one here with this objection. Everything seems to be working fine.

A while back Greyhound put up billboards on I5 in Washington/Oregon/North Cali with a bunch of rinky dink towns whose names were crossed out, their way of showing they were ending stops there, so fuck you hicks! But you big city folk will get where you're going so much faster. It was a really obnoxious ad campaign.

Will a critical mass be reached where we can create our own communities? At least at beehaw that seems to be handled top down, we had a poll asking what we'd want - does it work that way everywhere? I'd like a local area community, but as you say, who'd participate? I might be it.

"Threads"? Like the horrifying 1984 WWIII film? Sort of apropos...

Audacity can automatically insert labels at silences - it's detailed in that link. It does all the work for you.

Kind of a wash - I've always been a RiF devotee. I might have rejected Sync if it wasn't compact enough, or I didn't realize it could be set that way - I've always placed a premium on cramming the most info onto a screen as I can. Which is why I was drawn to /. and then reddit, and can't stand FB etc.

Splitting a recording into separate tracks - Audacity Manual Super easy to do. Back in the Cool Edit days I digitized hundreds of LPs by hand, it is a bit of a chore.

I'm really not sure which approach is best. kbin has a whole reddit migration community, you might find some answers there. I've only used PDS and I think you can leave parting words with it, too.

Just found this over at kbin, in the above linked thread:

You should bear in mind, PowerDeleteSuite doesn't get everything. It can only see what's in your reddit profile under New, Top, Hot & Controversial - there will be numerous posts that are too old with only 1 or a few karma that aren't displayed in these lists. In particular, if you go through your top posts of all time, you might find some replies to these posts that you made that the script did not see.

The GDPR archive gives a full list of all the comments. What we need is a FOSS script that can use these csv files to get everything. Apparently Shreddit can take the csv files, however you have to pay $15 to use this feature.

 

I'll be reading something and all of a sudden the tab title is something wholly different; today I tried to post in a thread for community suggestions and it wound up in another thread entirely. I was just reading about what's going on over at reddit and the tab title is some story related to a Twitch star. Anybody else having troubles of this nature? FF, Win10, VPN.
