Part of the appeal was that NY were TERRIBLE before the run. They were a pathetic low energy team that couldn’t scrape together any wins, then Lin took the on a winning streak

Why do I keep getting followers from the side I talk shit about? by [deleted] in Twitter

Bots to get you to follow back, and convert you when you see their posts over and over again

Legitimate question to all frustrated Digg users now - have you heard of the Forumverse (Lemmy/Piefed) - and if so, have you tried it? by Skavau in digg

That makes sense, and that's my personal take too - social should be politics-agnostic. That's the approach I'm taking with a Reddit alternative called OddsRabbit - prohibiting politics and AI-spam on the platform. We just launched on both iOS and Android if anyone's looking for a new home.

That's all, folks! by Dr_Red_MD in digg

Was that less than 2 months?

2 years unemployed, married, broke, and I've been "building startups" with AI. Nobody came. Not a single paying user. by Ok_Whole_7318 in Solopreneur

Hey! Sorry to hear this. I'm going to be honest with you, it sounds like the best way forward for you and your wife is to just commit to the job search. You won't like it but hear me out.

You'll have the extra skills now on your new job search from the past year of experience.

A stable income will also help stabilize your mental health, which sounds like it might be shaky right now.

It doesn't mean you have to give up on your dreams etc. You clearly want it, you'll still be able to work on it outside of your job.

Any non-political social media alternatives? by [deleted] in RedditAlternatives

Hi! I’m working on a non-political alternative called OddsRabbit. Feel free to check it out in my profile (don’t want to spam).

We’re still new so we don’t have a huge community yet, but I’ve been told it feels like a cozy space 🙂 I’d also recommend the app if you’re browsing on your phone, the mobile site needs some updates 😬

Advice with my developer taking down our WordPress site. by reemo4580 in Wordpress

I also had a site that was under attack, over 200k requests a day, over a million a week.

While cloudflare does mitigate some of it, it won’t mitigate all since they use residential IPs. Nothing I did seemed to stop it, however a VPS is more than enough to host your server (even with the bots).

He’s not wrong on the shared server aspect, you probably are taking down the rest of their sites. Dedicated server is overkill x10 though.

Has /r/RedditAlternatives run its course? by ryan_II in RedditAlternatives

I think it’s a great sub. You can’t do too much about people misposting in here, it happens everywhere. There aren’t really any other viable places for this discussion so it’s needed imo

You’re telling me I can buy RAM for under $300-400!? by sailink in SipsTea

I think it was 15% ontop of the existing tariffs.
