Why isn't anyone talking about this? It looks like Meta wants to compete with Twitter with a new Instagram microblogging app which will probably be compatible with Mastodon
Key Point of the article:
*“Soon, our app will be compatible with certain other apps like Mastodon,” Instagram’s slide says. “Users on these other apps will be able to search for, follow and interact with your profile and content if you’re public, or if you’re private and approve them as followers.” *
No I want r/ComedyNecrophilia r/AnarchyChess r/Feedthememes r/okbuddybaka r/mechanicalkeyboards r/linuxmemes and all the subs from certain games.
You overread the part were I said "hyperspecific nieches"
That's like not true at all. Just have a look into r/ComedyNecrophilia or r/OkBuddyChicanery
They are filled with shitposting but still very civilized. I'm not talking about r/shitposting because that place is trash.
It's a different kind of humour that most are used to but that doesn't make it bad. It's juts different and more absurd.
How is that bad? I'm left on the political spectrum so I dont think we should exclude them.
With guides I mean places like r/FreeMediaHeckYeah and theindex.moe which are both made by reddit users.
You're oversimplifying. A lot of new people also means a lot of new people who are against this type of stuff. It means that there are new people who hate the next US President or the next UK Queen/King. What You're saying are just stereotyps which aren't even true most of the time.
The whole time you're using stereotypes that are wrong.
I actually can't tell if you're serious or not. But since it's actually pretty fun to argue here are my points:
No its not. Are you thinking that because of r/OkBuddyRetard? Baka is a way to say "idiot" and in this context it's there to make fun of a pretty common character type in anime called the "tsundere".
It absolutely doesn't. It's one of the most accepting and beginner friendly subs I know (maybe besides the 3D printing subs). Nobody is gatekeeping and when somebody does, they get downvoted into oblivion.
You're asking me if I want an anime shitposting sub making self councous fun of Anime while loving it that allinges pretty much perfectly with my ideological and political views and one of the kindes and most helpful communities I know? ABSOLUTELY!
I never said something different. Yes a lot of people will also mean a lot of people I don't want to interact with but that's just the necessary evil for it not to become a shitty unironical circlejerk like r/GamingCirclejerk where I have the feeling that they unironically hate gamers and games. It's a sub purely for shitting on other people. Same thing with r/facepalm
A lot of people also means a lot of good content. Some subs collapse and go to shit when they are growing but others will be better.
That's what I'm saying. I want it to be like reddit but better. I want it to be a reddit with actual free speech.
I know about this. You could just... not browse them. They are on the startpage but that doesn't mean they're good or what I want.
Yeah no, absolutely not. These subs are against this kind of content and are actively making fun of it.
