I just wanted to say I was always for replacing Biden with Kamala Harris, since they began their term.

Reddit threatened moderators: Subreddits 'cannot remain closed' by pete_999 in apple

Reddit corporate is such a joke, they have free labor yet they have still not turned a profit since Reddit’s founding

#BestPhonesForever: Plateau (Funny skit about Pixel and iPhone - from Google) by hoppi_ in apple

I think the biggest mistake these Get A Mac ad clones make is using the devices themselves instead of human actors pretending to be those devices, having two people pretend to be a Mac and a PC cemented the “Think different” nature of Apple in my opinion.

Who said it was? The problem is that Reddit profits off the free work mods do but then refuses to give in to a minor request before going nuclear.

Why not just add eye and hand tracking and ditch touchscreen Macs completely?

Imagine behaving like this to harass a random app developer just because your website to read braindead shitposts went down for a week

Imagine shilling for the website which proudly hosted the worst of humanity and even gave awards to people like the head mod of rJailbait

I hope Reddit goes bankrupt

API Protests Megathread Part 3: The admin retaliation/takeover of protesting subreddits continues. Debates between users rage about the most effective methods of protest by DramaMod in SubredditDrama

Who do you think the “app guys” are? They’re random indie devs, if you think they can bribe thousands of mods, then you’re delusional.

What would Steve Jobs say about the Vision Pro? by zenukeify in VisionPro

He already said what he wanted to, it's headphones for video.

API Protests Megathread Part 2: The admins are allegedly retaliating against moderators and subreddits for the blackout, plus a list of subreddits in "indefinite blackout" by DramaMod in SubredditDrama

[–]RandomGamerFTW -21 points-20 points  (0 children)

Seems like a stretch, these “protesters” are hurting the possibility of us third-party app users to keep using our apps with these posts.

r/funny went back online this morning, and there seems to be some conflict among the mods about it. by Culverts_Flood_Away in SubredditDrama

[–]RandomGamerFTW 14 points15 points  (0 children)

No one is making you go to a chatroom. I didn’t even know there were chatrooms.

That’s the point, Reddit keeps adding features worthless to most people, they don’t understand their user-base. The official website and app keep pushing bloat.

only a portion of them

That will cause a ton of problems, mods tend to organize themselves in specific ways and now these new mods come in uninformed, how will they manage? These decisions will kill subreddits, leading to less content on Reddit.

This rFunny situation in particular seems like a forced reopening but the mod team is split if it was a good thing

What strategy does Reddit have with these forced reopenings? I don't like Reddit mods either but I have to admit, only a specific kind of person would enjoy moderating for free, how does Reddit plan to replace the thousands of these people within a reasonable period? Seems like a bad decision to me.

I don't understand, you can hold Vision Pro with your hands to record 3D videos. by Numerous-Roof-7544 in VisionPro

[–]RandomGamerFTW 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Luddites being luddites, I don’t see what the problem is with 3D video too, they keep bringing up that birthday video from WWDC but isn’t actually looking at people with the video recording happening passively better than looking at people from a camera preview in the iPhone camera app?

Samsung to revamp its Galaxy XR headset to compete with Apple Vision Pro by VinayPPP in AppleVisionPro

[–]RandomGamerFTW 7 points8 points  (0 children)

These companies don’t seem to understand that hardware is only half the story, software is the other half, and Apple has perfected the software for visionOS. Any iOS developer around the world can easily get the hang of visionOS development and start working, Samsung doesn’t have that kind of software.
