I’d be willing to pay for a few subscriptions if I didn’t feel like subscription services are trying to gouge me left and right. I miss the days when subscriptions to Netflix and Spotify gave me access to 90% of content online.

Contrast this with Steam, which gives me centralized convenience, seamless updates, online sync, achievements… No wonder that’s where I spend almost all of my entertainment money these days.

High-end human-powered spambots.

Honestly, I’m just back to multiple apps. I work with people from all over, so I have like 7 different apps. Ah well.

I’ve been using it for a while. I stopped.

My two issues were security concerns because Beeper needs to unencrypt my data from all platforms to re-encrypt it to send it to me, which sounds like a huge single point of failure; and regular connection issues where I had to switch back to the original app.

Great concept, but not quite there yet.

I hated the “coin culture” with a passion (hey, look, it’s Bill Gates, let’s give him tons of paid emoticons he won’t care about!), but it’s clear this move is part of Reddit’s further enshittification. You can bet whatever replaces coins will be even shittier, and I think Reddit’s users know it.

I treat them as sports team insofar as I hope that the stadium catches on fire and collapses on both of them in the middle of the match.

How does Fallen Order run on the Deck? It shows as not supported.

I hate to be a pessimist, but it’s not gonna work.

Most big subs will reopen, and those that don’t will get their moderators replaced. The bulk of the user base is gonna switch to the official app and meme about how bad it is right on Reddit and get Reddit Gold for it.

I’m still gonna stick to either Lemmy or Kbin. I like the smaller community here; it reminds me of Reddit’s olden days when everyone wasn’t a cynical asshole.
