Unfortunately, Reddit has learned from their mistakes and restricted the ability for moderators to lock down their own subreddits. So any protest actions will not be as effective as 2023.

And just recently, Reddit announced that you can no longer generate your own API keys and will need to request permission from Reddit themselves. This is the final nail in the coffin for 3rd party apps, as back in 2023 you could still generate your own API keys and continue using 3rd party apps. The silence in the public outrage against this is deafening.

Instead of taking drastic actions affecting the most amount of people, Reddit is taking smaller actions that will slowly kill off things they don’t like. This will limit the outrage, and at the same time, they get to achieve what they want.

What benefit does this have over a Zigbee dongle on Amazon that’s cheaper? Would the advantage be that this is a 3-in-1 dongle?

Packed like sardines. The average day in Japan, and probably most of Asia lol.

You’re not sleeping tonight.

Then the API debacle happened two years ago

Good news! They made things worst a few days ago by requiring users to request permission to get a personal API key. So if you don’t already use a modified 3rd party app with your own API key, then you’re fucked!

Good question. I tried to find that comment again but can’t seem to find it anymore. I’ll report back if I bump into another Lemmy link that’s from outside my home instance that doesn’t get localized.

Ah, that’s a pretty useful site. Thanks for letting me know!

Also, congrats on being the first to Rickroll me here on Lemmy lol.

The other interfaces look pretty neat! Although, now that I think about it, is there a way to convert Lemmy links posted by people from a different instance to your home instance? I was trying out the Photon interface until I saw someone link a post from their home instance, and clicking on it brought me off Lemmy.ca entirely.

I want this to be real.

What about the uneducated fleas?

Thank you!

Depends on the community. I’ve met some very helpful noob-friendly developers who recognize you’re a noob and will use simpler terms to guide you through the process, and passive aggressive assholes that’ll ignore your messages the very second they figure out you’re a noob. Even though they were literally just talking to you seconds before.

As long as they don’t F up the price of the Steam Machine, then this would be wonderful for both the gaming and Linux communities.
