  • Reddit will require you to log in to use old.reddit.com

  • Evidently not enough people left Reddit due to their last enshittification measure, so the enshittification will continue.

  • Every fucking time

  • The older you get, the less excited and more annoyed at New for New's Sake; the yoots either find it normal (everything is new when you're brand new) or thrilling and exclusive ("Look, something changed! Wow! I bet fewer (older) people understand this!")

    When I go to the grocery store I'm not looking for an adventure, I just want to buy the things and leave. But that's not as profitable.

  • These lines are admittedly arbitrary, but I hold that I contributed at least a little.

    "[your number but higher]" isn't over the bar I have for valuable contributions. It may be over yours.

  • Constructive criticism, honestly:

    Can we not do Reddit-style one-upping replies? You've added nothing to the thread except a very low-effort quip that leads to The Price Is Right "No, no, you need a trillion!" "No, no, you need a quadrillion!" etc. that just... sap every reader's seconds of their lives away.

    I'm sure you say plenty of clever and helpful things elsewhere, but I'm so over Reddit and I don't want Lemmy to be like it.

  • That's definitely not how it came across to me (and apparently, several other people).

  • If you have to break out special equipment like ladders to service a vehicle, it is no longer consumer-grade.

  • You obviously didn't read my comment and think about it to respond to it, so I guess I owe you the same treatment.

    Whether you're stubborn and love arguing with strangers for no reason or are an actual rage-baiter, I don't want to waste any more seconds of my life on reading anything you have to say; either way, I hope you get the help you need and enjoy the block.

  • It’s not AI it’s an image that’s been floating around the internet used in memes/shitposts for ages.

    Oh okay.

    "Why don't poor people simply stop being poor? They should just ask their father for a small loan of a million dollars."

  • My question implies that there is no guess that seems reasonable.

    Sorry to hear that, but it seems to be a problem unique to you.

    Successive 17-year periods is a highly unusual method for measurement, so that doesn’t really make sense. Or am I simply missing something otherwise more obvious?

    It's simply arbitrary. As they say, "it's not that deep." There is no standard period for measuring such a thing. 17 is weird, but then what's less weird about 5, 10, 15, 20, or 50? That they're evenly divisible by 5?

    Why not share that information instead of being condescending?

    I wasn't trying to be condescending, I'm just pointing out that you are the person who has stubbornly refused to make a reasonable conclusion. If that gives offense, perhaps you should consider whether or not your stance makes any sense before decrying someone pointing out that your stance doesn't make any sense?

    If I'm being less pleasant as this conversation goes on, maybe it's because you keep down-voting all of my replies despite my being cordial in helping you understand why people are dog-piling you?

    And if “you all” know that it’s unclear, why not simply agree that it’s unclear in the first place?

    ... reread that sentence a few times and tell me if it isn't hilariously ironic to the point I'm starting to think you're a rage-baiter and heavily considering a block.

    On the off-chance you're not a rage-baiter, here's why it's ironic:

    You are complaining I did not "agree that it's unclear in the first place" in spite of the fact that I literally agreed with you in the first message I wrote to you.

  • As I said, we all know it's unclear, but the rest of us made a reasonable conclusion as to what they meant.
