What’s reddit
Lemmy-like platform. But looks like they haven’t implemented ActivityPub yet.
They sound pretty shady. Think we should defederate?
Dam lemmy.world at it again
Removed by mod
What did I do to your fediverse mark? I don’t recall having these powers…please explain
I don’t know why these platforms think they’ll ever take off without even implementing federation. It’s 2023!

They also seem to want to replace moderators with AI and even bought a company that does so. Weird, and probably easy to abuse. Wouldn’t trust.
Remember Digg? It’s like that except it’s mostly bots.
Ah so it’s kinda like Digg?
It’s a website where bots talk to each other and posts links from all over the internet in order to scam corporations out of ad revenue.
Dead Internet theory personified.
A centralized, proprietary alternative to Lemmy.
I think its like Chlamydia but you catch it from sticking your head too far up your ass (hence spez has it the worst)
a marketing tool
Sorry you lost your community. That really sucks.
On the other hand, welcome to a new community!
I’m just passing along the message. Communicate directly with the person responsible on Mastodon.
More Lemmy users need to be like you.
Why are Lemmy users Assholes.
Why are Lemmy users Assholes.
Because most Lemmy users are ex (or current) reddit users.
Because Lemmy users are also humans and humans are assholes.
Wow it must be an extremely novel experience for an iOS programmer to have a company arbitrarily make decisions about what you can and cannot do on their platform
Why kick 'em when they’re down already?
They clearly like the boot, so
Apple bad
Wait hold on
People wanting to make software for widely used devices bad?
Ok that WAS clever
lol gottem
you do realize in this regard google/Apple are two sides of the same coin right?
I don’t think he was drawing a comparison.
Mobile development sucks in general.
Thank you for your service o7

At this point, to me, it’s fuck reddit, spez is just a scapegoat that does what the board wants and all other admin happy to comply, he doesn’t own it like elon owns twitter
Yep. Some of us remember when it was Fuck Ellen Pao, they seem to like their sacrificial CEOs over there, though I’m sure they get paid too much to be the scapegoat.
That just makes me stop and think about how bad Musk loves being That Guy. The other ones will take the heat and then float away on their golden parachutes, you never really hear from them again. Not him. He keeps making new companies so he can be That Guy at them.
Eventually it was bound to happen. Still sad to see mods getting removed to make way for more Spez friendly replacements
Coming from r/DnDMemes I feel you dude. Thank you for putting it all on the line and sticking to what you felt was right.

just keeps Digging themselves deeper in the hole.Thank you for your service. Now watch the place burn.


Is there a community here for it yet?
Closest thing is !mobiledev@programming.dev currently, I’ve just reached out to one of the iOSProgramming mods about if they want to set up here
Update: we now have !ios_dev@programming.dev, temporarily managed by me until we get some mods for it
I was looking for a better place to post this.
Yeah this is the best spot atm in the instance, its a catchall community for programming things in the instance. The ios dev community is currently going through the community request process and then this can be crossposted into there
I dont get why subreddit mods work or worked for free for a company that makes money from what they do ……
Because some of them find value in building a community, because humans are quite social.
You can make money doing it, you just have to have extremely loose morals.
Thank you for fighting a good fight. You’re far better than 98% of the boot-consuming power trippers that folded the moment it looked like they might lose their paper throne. Welcome home.

Is there a Mastodon alternative?
Yea, go to another Mastodon instance
This is the way
So say we all.
This is the saying.
Firefish
There are so many I lost count:
- Pleroma
- Misskey
- Friendica
- Firefish
- Akkoma
And perhaps many more. Heck, even Kbin has microblogging support.
Smile, you’re already on
Candid Camerait!Mastodon and Lemmy don’t have great interoperability. They use the ActivityPub protocol in ways that are not compatible with each other.
I’m surprised they gave a shit for /r/iOSProgramming since it’s not as popular. It’s more niche but yeah sad to hear. Glad I got rid of reddit after the API shutdown.
They don’t “give a shit” about what sub it is, they just have automated things that do this.
This is outrageous, it’s unfair!
