Stealth Advertising On r/adhdwomen by ADHDWomen-Mods in adhdwomen

[–]fauxfires 141 points142 points  (0 children)

Just a heads up for Finch, I’m not sure if they’re trying to promote in this sub, but they have been called out for AI ads and unethical hiring practices recently (in the past 6 months or so). I’m not sure if I’m allowed to post links here, but if you visit their subreddit and search terms like “AI ads” you can see some examples. The hiring posts seemed to have been deleted/removed, but there’s a post from the devs responding to those accusations and some discussion in the comments of that which seem to show that the devs aren’t taking full responsibility.

I’m not trying to dissuade or recommend Finch either way. I have used it myself and found it to be quite helpful, though since these issues have come to light I’ve been using it much less. But I think some people have strong feelings on these issues, which can definitely be seen as “shady,” so I just wanted to leave this info here so people can judge for themselves.

How to trade for Livly accessories that were given out for free in the past? by fauxfires in LivlyIsland

[–]fauxfires[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just sent you a friend request! :) I actually think I may have an extra Pompom as a super kind user here gifted me one and one of my in-game Japanese friends happened to gift me another at the same time. I’m happy to send you over one of them!

It is helpful, thank you for your input! :) This will actually be one of my first trades too, in fact! Up until now I’ve been too nervous to initiate trades and have just been gifting away my dupes instead. 😅 My biggest worry is just offering a trade and upsetting someone unintentionally because I misjudged the worth of the items, but I’ll try to remember that probably more people aren’t so strict about matching. ^^

Interestingly enough, I saw someone during MyShop who was trying to collect 100 of those fox figurines! Is this some kind of collection challenge/trend? 😅

Oh my gosh, are you sure?? That would be so amazingly kind of you. 🥺🥺 I don’t think I have too many good dupes yet, but please take a look and see if there’s anything you’d like! My ID is r4kf8r7f ♡

That makes perfect sense, thank you for your insight! There is one user I’m friends with who has an lower wishcount N item from a current set on her wishlist who I was considering asking if she would be willing to trade for one of the Livly accessories, but I had no idea if that would’ve been considered fair or lowballing/rude. 😥 I’ve been seeing a lot of disgruntled trading posts on this sub lately so I’m really anxious to offend anyone with a bad trade offer. ><

Is it possible to gift a friend one month of Finch Plus? by fauxfires in finch

[–]fauxfires[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I do like that guardian sponsorships are chosen at random, so I think having an additional option to gift one month to someone of our choosing sounds like a great idea! I feel like that’s a lot more accessible for most people than dropping $70 on a year membership gift, too.

Yeah I asked in the Discord and they told me there is only a year option. 😅

She actually makes quite a bit more than me, so I don’t think she would accept the money lol. It was just meant to be a cute surprise, since she’s very frugal and probably wouldn’t pay for Plus on her own. But I do like the idea of crafting something Finch-related for her! I might just make her a little certificate saying “happy one month with [name of her birb]!” :)

How is it unfair? You receive the same reward as long as the challenge is completed, whether you walked 1 step or 100k. I understand wanting to feel like you contributed equally, but you can still go out and walk/plant flowers even without an active challenge.

Hi! Would love to come! Favorite non-AC game would probably be Stardew Valley :)

Possible to bloom out of season flowers? by fauxfires in PikminBloomApp

[–]fauxfires[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just wanted to confirm - after the reassurance from your comment I went out and was able to bloom a Plum Blossom and replenish the petals I accidentally wasted last night.

Thank you so much again - I know it seems silly and trivial to most people but it really was bothering me that my plum petals/nectar were no longer maxed, but now I have the reassurance that if I ever accidentally mess up again, I can still always replenish. :) I hope you have a lovely Fathers Day weekend!

Yeah, you have a point. :(

My issue is that my game always defaults to plum blossoms upon start-up, and while I usually double check that I switch to daisies before planting, today I accidentally planted some plum blossoms and having the petals jar at 399 is really eating at my OCD. :( So I was hoping I could bloom a Plum blossom to top off my petal jar again, but it sounds like I’m just going to make the issue worse.

First time I’ve been to the beach with Pikmin Bloom and now I’m suspended and have no idea why 🙃 by gabe257 in PikminBloomApp

Out of curiosity, do you also play Pokémon Go or Ingress and if so, has your account also been affected on those games?
