High chance if he decided to take home “just” $10 million per year, he could pay every single one of the Valve employees at least 100k more every year.

That or they could take less than 30% from developer profits.

It doesn’t matter what he does because they’ll say anything bad is fake

Please. Don’t. Eat. Him.

Tomodachi life: All hail the Gabecube… All hail the Gabecube…

It’s like crack. Apparently someone spread a meme around of one of their banned account’s login info and got a shit load of people banned so reddit unbanned everyone, sounds stupid but maybe I’ll try that

In 100 years people are gonna look back on these 'phobes in the same way that we look back at slave owners… ignoring the fact that a lot of the 'phobes would probably be okay with modern slaves anyways.

Thanks for making Blorp, it’s my favourite Lemmy app I’ve tried! And the lack of post flairs is something I’ve noticed, so I might try PieFed out.

If you want feedback on some more (very minor) things I would love to be fixed, here’s a list of things I’ve noticed:

I posted on the Blorp community yesterday about wanting a “read all” button for notifications (mostly because this post got a lot) so that would be really nice.

Other than that, it’s mostly just tiny things. Apparently Lemmy has a backend way to see user karma, so maybe seeing that would be nice to add as an option?

Maybe a button to copy and paste a post’s body text on mobile like on Reddit, or even a “save image/video” button? This is really minor.

And maybe an easier way to see the upvote/downvote ratio? (like 87% upvoted as an example)

Maybe this isn’t possible for some reason, but would a way to create a community inside of Blorp be possible? I don’t know if Lemmy works like that.

Thanks again for making this app, especially the fact that it’s on iOS. I hope it’s not too much of a time/financial burden because it’s great.

(All of this is from iOS by the way)

This is more of a recent thing.

Since the API changes, everyone’s been pretty much forced to use their first-party app, so they can collect even more data on you. But, even without it, they still collect a comically huge amount of data like how long you hover on a post or how fast you type on your keyboard.

That combined with the seemingly sudden leap in AI within the last 3-4 years has allowed them to employ AI specifically trained to detect evaders.

If you want to keep using Reddit, be careful, because second chances are very hard now!

You a dinosaur?

Thank you, helped a lot.

It’s one of the only places to talk about some topics

It looks like it’s #7 on the most visited list. Even a top 10 website is still pretty fucking huge (it’s #7). Almost everyone in the world uses the internet, and to think it could be one of the fingers if the top 10 was put on a hand is ludicrous.

While I don’t like the cookie tracking, device linking, or fingerprinting, that is only a fraction as dystopian as the behavioural tracking like I mentioned.

You could definitely move onto others with experience, and obviously there are other decent options, but I do think Bambu offers one of the best balances between stability and cost.

I’m not surprised Lemmy is against Bambu though because this site is essentially an open source forum, lol. Thats true though, the lack of modding is why I might not suggest sticking with them.

So you use the same devices as before just like firefox with cleared cookies? How long do your accs last?

Also sorry for bombarding you with questions it’s just I rlly doubt wanna lose the ability to post on some of these subs lol

I don’t even think the evasion detection is that complicated.

Barring fingerprinting and IP shit, let’s say they index every single user that spends more than 25 hours on their site per month to lower computational load relative to if we did every single user.

For each of those users, they might record 10 of their most used “niche subreddits” (those with under 200,000 members, niche because most reddit users are in the non-niche subs so it’s not conclusive enough)

From that data alone, if a user happens to be into, say, Golden Age Minecraft, 3D Printing, Stampylongnose, Namesoundalike memes, Drakethetype memes, and be in a Saskatchewan local sub, ON TOP of the account being relatively new, this is enough evidence for Reddit to be 99.9% confident that you’re the same user as someone else with that data—and if that someone else with that data is banned, you’re gone too!

That’s how I think they do it. So, you have to completely change your usage habits on top of all device fingerprinting and IP stuff. Near impossible unless you’re not just terminally online (like me) but eternally online.

Seems unlikely that they’d do this just to catch ban evaders? They probably were already doing it for targeted ads, so might as well repurpose it for this, too!

So do you literally just wait a few days and rejoin some of your favourite smaller subs after a few days no matter how small they are and still remain undetected?

Are you ever connecting to your old IP again after making the account on data or are you being super careful about it?

Also, if the bans aren’t for evasion, how are you coming back after 60 fucking times lol?!

lol I don’t know what any of these are supposed to mean. Love them for that though

Not sure what the intent behind this post is, and I know it’s cliche, but don’t fucking do it. Please

Used printers often require fixes that require you to be knowledgeable in to fix.

I recommend Bambu printers if you wanna dip your toes in the hobby. They’re locked down quite a bit but they just work. I think the A1 mini is excellent.
