Even the NFL one, the front page of posts the most comments is 10.

I mean, there’s already apps that are good that were created by reddit app developers. E.g. Boost for Lemmy. The problem isn’t the apps, it’s the availability of content and people. The /r/orioles on reddit has 85,163 subscribers. 110 people on the page right now. /c/Baltimore_Orioles here has 150 subscribers and no posts in 4 months which was a bot posted game thread with 0 comments on it. The problem is meaningful content and people to interact with, not the UI. There’s no reason to join if you want to talk sports because there’s no on to talk sports with. I’m not going to sit in game threads by myself and post my thoughts to no one.

The tough part for me is that the reason I use Reddit is for bullshitting with people about sports teams I like. Lets look at some of the communities here.

• Baltimore Orioles – There’s one on lemmy.world with 150 subscribers. The last post is from 4 months ago and it’s a game thread posted by a bot with 0 comments. There’s also one on fanaticus.social with the last post from 7 months ago.
• Carolina Panthers – There’s one on fanaticus.social with 3 subscribers.
• Miami Heat – There’s one on lemmy.world with 10 subscribers.
• Pittsburgh Penguins – Again, lemmy.world with 11 subscribers.

I’d love to get off reddit but until there’s actually people to talk with, this place is just never going to meet the needs of sports content that I use Reddit for. I had no interest in Bluesky until some people actually got on it as well. The Shutdown Fullcast for college football brought a bunch of people and fans there so it gave some utility to the site. Without utility, there’s no reason to be here.

No need to board shame him. He’s just rocking with what he’s got. It’s not the size of the board, it’s the motion on the pavement.

Thanks. I was legitimately confused by Minecraft because I never saw anything negative added to Java edition but I’ve never played Bedrock. Minecraft keeps pumping out free content updates so they seem like a good example of what to do for a company.

It’s also dumb to just assume that foreign companies can just flip a switch and start building/assembling whatever they sell in America. You need facilities, you need to hire employees, you need to train employees. You can’t just pick up your factory, drop it in Kansas, and just slot people into the building to work it right away.

But every sector has been ravaged by the stock market changes.

You just don’t know what you’re talking about. The S&P 500 is up like 25% over the same period. You’re just buying into specific sectors. Don’t do that. Buy market index funds or target date funds and stop trying to actively manage your retirement account. Also, you haven’t lost anything in value because you haven’t realized the losses by cashing out. It’s better for you currently if things are a lower price because you’re buying them at a discount.

If that’s Saddam Who’s Sane, where Saddam Who’s Insane?

The only thing I need a Chromium based browser for is casting my totally legit streams of sporting events to my TV.

A great use of plastic…

Waterproofing is very difficult with a headphone jack

Something I have heard in the past but is a headphone jack that much harder to waterproof vs a USB-C port? I’m genuinely curious because I don’t know. It feels like the two would be of a similar difficulty.

But they also seemingly worship grown men like Trump and Musk who have nothing better to do than complain about how they’ve been wrong on Twitter and Truth Social. Like seriously, if I had the amount of money that Elon does, you’d never hear from me because I’d be busy doing cool shit and not posting on Twitter. Like how lonely is his life?

Yeah, I’m not saying it’s not a good practice, but I just don’t see them doing it.

You don’t want crypto, don’t use it.

I use Brave as my Chrome based browser when not using Floorp but there were other issues with Brave in the past like injecting their affiliate links unbeknownst to users so they could make money off them. They have reverted that decision but that they thought it was acceptable in the first place leaves some to question, rightly, what other shenanigans they might pull. They’ve also had issues with paying out Creators BAT tokens.

Now they will be forced to look at ads.

I’m pretty sure they would’ve been seeing ads anyways. I doubt that school IT administrators had uBlock Origins as an extension that was being installed and I really doubt they didn’t have the chromebooks locked down so students could install whatever extensions they wanted.

Clean water is for pussies.

Well when you only consume monster energy drinks and miller lite, why would you need water?

You’re telling me the part that doesn’t care about feeding kids, universal health care, clean water, and clean air but is pro gun, pro war, and pro forced birth isn’t Pro Life? SHOCKED!

And the tweet being shared is 2 days old in the screenshot too.

I hate Trump as much as the next one but he’s not a bad golfer. He’s just a cheater too. From your own article: “Why does Trump cheat so much when he’s already a decent player?” The two can be the same. Especially for his age. But all that to say that with as much time and money as he has put into the sport, he SHOULD be good at it. It shouldn’t be a surprise that he’s a decent golfer but he should be a better golfer given how much time and effort and money he’s put into it.

So much for that unity message, huh?

But seriously, I think they just call every woman a whore that has any sort of power or station in life because they have zero respect for women. It’s not that they think all women are whores, its that they don’t thin women have any intelligence or skills and so to become someone with that kind of power, they must just be sleeping their way to the top. How else could they get that job/position?
