Damn I never noticed but that dude looks like a dollar store knockoff alpharad
No, user numbers are not down because of a Google change. User numbers are down because they went ban crazy during the election and Luigi stuff.
If you ban people who produce your content, your site quality & engagement declines. It’s not rocket science.
Btw, they’re definitely reversing some of these bans to try to pull people back, and inflate the number of “returning” users. They permabanned two of my accounts for wrongthink during the election, and they’ve already reversed one with no prompting from me at all, after denying appeals months ago.
Honestly in my opinion, the minority of people worshipping Luigi aren’t much different from MAGA cultists.
You clearly are not one of the millions of people who have suffered at the hands of this industry, or watched a relative battle insurance goons as they decay.
Oh I’m completely 100% against for profit healthcare coverage, I think it should be socialized immediately, but where I differ from Luigi Cultists is I realize the path to get there is legislative in nature. Luigi threw his life and his rich boy education away to accomplish absolutely nothing.
It is absolutely wild to see neoliberals cling so fiercely to the belief that all of this can all be resolved through enough dedication to process & procedure. To see this dedication endure, even as they watch a fascist coup unfold in front of their eyes.
It really seems like a mental illness at this point.
It is absolutely wild to see people actively oppose liberalism, and at the same time complain about “us authoritarianism”.
Exactly what I expect from known Tankie scum surph_ninja
As expected, scratch a liberal, and a fascist bleeds.
At this point, I check every comment I leave on the platform in an incognito window. A good half of them get shadowremoved for no reason. How do they not get that new users are going to leave if nobody reads, votes on, or replies to their comments?
I’ve had like 5 comments shadowremoved from the conservative subreddit because I guess the large oceanographic feature south of the United States gets caught in their word filter, and they hate the Constitution
That’s the thing about corporate America. As soon as you go public, the only thing that matters is the next quarter. The long term health of the company isn’t even on the radar.
They don’t care if people eventually leave, so long as they stick around long enough to attract advertisers for this quarter.
I got an account strike the other day and a post removed “by Reddit” according to the message for saying something to the effect of “protests without a threat of violence behind it doesn’t mean much to those in power these days” on a thread about some ongoing protests.
Something about a site rule violation for advocating for and/or calling for violence.
My accounts were permabanned because Trump said Liz Cheney deserved to be shot, and I said I didn’t care because she’s called for the deaths of millions of people overseas. Banned for “advocating violence,” simply because I didn’t clutch my pearls that a warmonger was threatened.
Reddit shares plunge after missing engagement numbers due to fall off following enshitification
Lol fake news would never admit that a company got punished for taking a dump on its user baze’s heads
Reddit has said it is working to convince logged-out users to create accounts as logged-in users, which are more lucrative for its business.
