I joined Lemmy back in 2020 and have been using it as [email protected] until somewhere in 2023 when I switched to lemmy.world. I’m interested in systemd/Linux, FOSS, and Selfhosting.

  • At some point they l announce that paying for a Reddit premium account allows you to be unbanned and free to do whatever you want.

    What other reasons or ideas can you think of, that mass banning users, (some with years of age and contributions, some of them mods.) could be the first step in a plan to capitalize.

    To me it seems like it’s a consequence of both cost cutting moderators and lowering the threshold for bans to make the plaform more appealing to large companies advertising.



  • …definitely takes some getting used to when you come from a non-memory safe language…

    I actually think it’s more like the opposite. The compiler takes the normal rules you apply to avoid issues with a non-memory safe language like C/C++ and enforces them explicitly where memory safe languages don’t have those rules at all. I think lifetimes are much more confusing if you’ve never dealt with a user after free and usually let GC deal with it.

    Also yes the compiler warnings and errors are amazing, the difference between rustc and gcc is night and day.





















  • I see.
