Those snoo avatars for the execs look like the most soulless looking art styles possible, sort of like how Chuck E Cheese got rebranded. Pretty gross.

I've gone out of my way to avoid giving Microsoft money over their continual hypocrisy on almost virtually any issue I care about. Really, a shitty company that gets away with way too much.
I was building a Reddit clone a long time ago and this man has followed my Github profile for the last 10 years. Of course that was a different era. That's my anecdote though, I think underneath all of these silicon bros is a spoiled nerdy interior that sold out. Kind of sad.
Right, except the tariff gets baked into the price your importer pays to bring the product into the US. So while you don't cut a check to the US Treasury, your buyer does, and that either makes your product less competitive or forces you to eat the cost in your margins. But yeah, "carry on".
A lot of people profile him as just a weird nerd and treat him like a digital punching bag, but I think it's a mistake to underestimate a censorship extremist who built an empire on unpaid labor. Ironically, the loudest "fuck this guy" comments often help him, because they reinforce the idea that opposition is just angry noise, not serious critique. That plays better in mainstream media than you’d think.
Well I wouldn't say it's better but it's definitely less enshittified. Give it time, the owners of Sniffies have given no indication they have the ability to earn anyone's trust.
I'm still using RIF with my own access token, what do you mean they are banned?
That $126,500 number refers to the Foreign Earned Income Exclusion (FEIE), but it's not a hard threshold below which you're totally off the hook. U.S. citizens abroad still have to file a tax return if their income exceeds the standard filing requirement (around $14k+ for single filers). And the FEIE only applies to earned income, not investment income or retirement income. It's not automatic, you have to qualify under the bona fide residence or physical presence test, and file the right forms (like Form 2555) to claim it.
Even if you're making well under $126k, you still have to file, and you might owe something depending on your situation.
If it makes you feel better, even if you migrate to another country and gain citizenship, you still have to pay income taxes to the US.
At least have some dignity and be grounded in the reality of where this company is aligned politically. Reddit doesn't care about you or anything other than emulating everything Elon Musk does.
This system is so easily gamed by report spam. I've gotten multiple warnings on my account for "violence" removed after appealing, their system is automating this somehow and it's not doing a good job. Really that's just the story of Reddit for the past several years, they cast a wide net and piss off a lot of people now. They used to be a lot more hands-off but now they're just controlling fuckwits.

Reddit isn't worth it as it's now run by fascists, but if you really have to, the best way to create an account is to just use a new IP. This could just be your phone with wifi disabled. Most carriers use ipv6 now, they're not going to be able to track the rotating IPs your phone carrier assigns. Create the account with a browser you haven't used Reddit with before and let it sit for a few months. Then use it carefully. Really, not defending the gatekeeping and if anything condemning it, but just telling you how to work around it.
