Oh, this is lovely. Thank you.

No

I feel your sentiment. But it's more about our impression that everything on the internet should be free.

There are people that hate subscriptions, paywalls, adds or that their personal data being sold. And yet they want to use all the services such as Netflix, YouTube, Facebook, etc. People want to have their cake and eat it too.

I am not saying that the number of adds and prices are not getting out of control but it makes sense to me that if I am not paying directly for certain services, I am paying for them with my personal data or an advertiser is paying for me instead.

Technically you pay to use Youtube by watching adds. People sometimes forget that there are no free lunches.

Well, new Reddit might easily mean better but also diffderent Reddit. Also, I am not sure whether people actually call it a new Reddit. Most of the time I heard the destription was a Reddit alternative which by definition doesn't imply that it's identical or even better in all ways.

It would take way more but the first step it would be to remove religions. And not only because most are not peaceful in principle but also because some religions see others as a target. Even small difference in beliefs could spark a vicious and long standing conflic, like Catholics Vs protestants.

It causes 37.7% increase not matter how much you consume of Aspartame.

It's definitely bad for you. Original Coke is better but of course still not good.

This is totally baseless statement and most likely false. Sugar as far as I know still way more deadly to humans than all the sweeteners combined.

This is another point that no-one makes. While it is clear that the best alternative to a sweetened drink would be water, often it is the "healthier and natural" version with real sugar which is just incomparably more damaging to human bodies.

I am curious whether this will actually impact what is considered safe to consume on a daily basis.

Again, many things are unhealthy and carcinogenic in large quantities. The infamos study showed that Aspartame was causing cancer in mice but the amounts they were given would be like humans eating bags of it every day.

I see you point but I think you are being harsh here. It is clear that it is not to be taken literally that Mastodon is nothing like Twitter in therms of looks. I think the spirit of the OPs comment is that it is the style of conversations, atmosphere and culture that each of them foster what makes them somewhat different.

Alright Mr Outraged, just because you got here a week before others doesn't mean the the new comers cannot ask about Lemmy and his it compares to Reddit. In fact the numbers are expected to rise. So good luck blocking posts and people on daily basis for weeks and months to come.

Aka, don't be a jerk to new comers that have questions. Jeez.

I don't know the answer.

Just because you are into slugs in teal cravats it doesn't mean it is a niche as you think.

While I agree that requiring people to reveal their ethnicity should be a no-no for anything other than medical, asking for people to volunteer this information makes sense.

In UK in many places giving ethnicity is optional and the results are used to monitor how different groups aka "races" are doing. This then can be used for research.

What are the reasons if you don't mind me asking? I write in 3 languages on the same mobile keyboard and it does a fantastic job correcting my spelling.

I know we are encouraged to create content on Lemmy... But based on the quality of your post and the effort I think we will be better off if you continue only lurking.

That means we achieved the full reddification of Lemmy

Am I the only with the paywall for the article?

This comment seems unnecessarily toxic to women or is it just me?
