most apps have auto update functions who require you to update. so normally they are all deactivated. but i have blocked the requests Joey does to it’s server for checking the version check and use an older version of the app so i can still use a older version. newer versions don’t let you do that anymore. so i guess Apollo is killed off completely.

you can just create a subreddit with your own name. boom, you’re a mod.

if you are mod of an subreddit, reddit still lets you use thirdparty apps and nsfw. i still use joey for reddit as an example. they don’t tell you about it though.

if you are mod of an subreddit you still get access to nsfw. also you can continue to use thirdparty apps. i still use joey for Reddit as an example. reddit still allows you to use them in secret if you’re a moderator.

learning something and being forced to eat and cook things are 2 things. teach the informations and knowledge self, that’s fine. but don’t force the cooking and eating.

also just because it’s mandatory it don’t means it helps. i had it mandatory and still don’t eat more healthy. also they didn’t teached us really much. they printed out recipes, gave them to us and said “go”. i don’t need need a cooking course for that. teachers often themself can’t cook so expecting them to teach it is “ehhhh”.

in my opinion it’s the job of parents to teach their kids cooking. not schools. parents cook daily anyway so they can teach their children at this times things.

the same. because it is something that shouldn’t get forced onto anybody. if I don’t want to so it, don’t force me to do it. it’s my body and if I don’t want to do it, leave me be. if you make it mandatory you generate a lot of mental stress like it did for me, even if its stuff you like.

let’s be real : there is no perfect teacher and situation. its more likely you end up in situations like i did than in a good one. schools are known for the opposite of nice places with good teachers who are understanding and nice to you. every school i was in in my life was a shithole in terms of teachers and people who worked there.

it’s one thing to make things like mathematics and language etc. mandatory… but cooking? if its basic knowledge alone okay. but not if its forced cooking and you have to obey what the teachers tell you to eat and cook. it’s one thing to give someone knowledge, another thing to force him to do and eat things he don’t want.

if it’s not mandatory and the children can decide for themself, cool. do it. but not mandatory.

here in germany it was mandatory and they did force me to cook and eat things i didn’t eat. I’m vegetarian but they tried to force me to eat and cook it. i also don’t eat specific other things because i hate their taste and they forced me to eat this bs.

fuck this “mandatory” courses. it’s not helping to live healthy. it’s forcing children to do stuff they don’t want to do and gives them bad grades for it. i got bad grades just because i was vegetarian and didn’t eat meat. fuck this.

each week when we had cooking class it was a nightmare for me. i always jad to explain myself again and again to everyone. why I don’t eat meat. what my ethics and morals are. ever fucking week. and in the end they have me bad grades even after cooking their bs recipes. i just didn’t eat them. because obvious reasons. fuck this mandatory courses.

in Germany it would count as theft and destroying of property of others even if it’s abandoned.

i would scroll a lot longer on lemmy if there would be more content and my app Liftoff wouldn’t completely reset where i left off when i click a link or leave the app for a second. each time i have to search again where i was etc… sucks after 2 time too much to try again. also the sorting in the app don’t rly works… i click sort by new in my profile and it does nothing.

if you get too much of something fun, it stops being fun after a while. same as with drugs… after a while, the same dosis isn’t having the same high anymore as the first time.

i’m around 12 years on reddit, and votes & how good a post or comments gets welcomed by the communitys on reddit feels kinda random to me.

you can post like you said the same thing at random times, and it will be either welcomed or punished to hell. i had times where i tried to find out if time & timezones have something to do with, but even when trying to post on specific times this didn’t changed much.

after all this years, i decided for myself posting on reddit is like a dice. you roll and either win or fail.

edit: sorry for the horrible english by the way. my motherlanguage isn’t english so i often have still issues with finding the right words for things :/

admins and mods working for reddit (the paid ones) have “tools” to do such things. thats also how /u/spez manipulated user comments who said fuck spez etc. - also how they manipulate /r/place currently. they just paint a huge black square or checkerboard over images they dislike.

but… do most people actually care? i stopped caring about my cumulative amount after a specific amount (currently i’m at 319.056 Post-Karma, 91.827 comment karma). its just too much too care anymore for me. if it goes down or up… i don’t really feel it anymore or even care. i think the whole cumulative score of votes isn’t really fullfilling anything purposefull.

how do you feel about such a cumulative score? does it triggers dopamine for you? for me it is “meh”, so i’m interested in how other people experience this.

Also comments don’t seem to get hidden due to downvotes thankfully. That was always a stupid system.

i hate this so much about reddit. a lot of users abuse this system so much to hide your comments so nobody sees them anymore… they just vanish because usually users don’t click unhide.

even if you are nice in the comment and are in the right… if someone dislikes your comment they can pull out their twink accounts and downvote it. and if a comment is at around -3 to -4 or similiar, most users just click downvote without actually reading it… because “others have downvoted that comment so it has to be right. downvote click”

its just so toxic on reddit…

YMusic is specific designed to work with music so the player, loading times etc are better. in NewPipe you first need to open a video, click play (or tab and hold to play), select play in background etc… and also create your own playlists. in YMusic you click just on a song you like and boom, it plays. also it can download quickly the music and also recommend automatic new music etc.

YMusic is just way better for music. you can even login with your yt account and use your music playlists etc. from computer.

YMusic ftw. if you want to listen to music in background, it’s the better alternative compared with newpipe. newpipe is the best for videos…but YMusic for music.

reddit already banned and killed aubreddits who just explained people how to migrate to kbin and lemmy. so i think if you would do that reddit would just start banning people and prevent us from posting any lemmy links. also most users probably wouldn’t bother even clicking on the link since they want the infos directly without having to do a lot of clicks. so it helps more to recommend lemmy to users in comments etc.

better solution: instead of creating a reddit post in first place, do it on lemmy. this forces over the long haul people to move because the content and community is there.

based on the knowledge, i would say nah. but maybe there is somewhere on the internet a genius who can somehow gets it to work stable enough… who knows.

i just checked the announcement of libreddit and it seems they used the same json endpoints i did for my project, so they probably encountered the same issues i did. and if they didn’t found a good solution yet (even after working way more with the API and endpoints than me)… dunno.

the biggest issue is that they detect thirdparty clients coded as a website parser on their server and just block you. and bypassing this isn’t really working well because of the rate limiting.

example: i just did send 3 requests where i first logged in, then asked for the recent posts of a sub… and already after this 2 requests i got rate limited by error 429 and couldn’t send any requests anymore.

so even just requesting the recent posts in a sub is an issue (with spoofed browser useragent). if you use a “legit” useragent it works better, but reddit exactly knows you’re using a thirdparty client and can block or ban you whenever they feel like. so it’s not really a good solution because every minute reddit could hit the killswitch. just not worth the time to develope a app if it gets killed off then anyway.
