Why of all the alternatives to reddit did the rif dev had to go with the shittyest one, i heard that the admins over there are even worse than they where back at reddit. I used riff almost since i started to interact with reddit and it was a beautifull app. Why didnt they go for a lemmy app? Why that horrible place of tildes...? I dont know but its probably safe to blame the beans.

Edit: Lots of Tildes lovers over here, arent yah? Look if you like the platform then more power to yah but my criticisms come from the moderation of that platform, its very sketchy and ban happy from what i heard, and imho a platform is limited by their moderators, and the jannies in tildes are the type that make you go "reddit moment" .

Tildes is not a Reddit alternative, it's got its own thing going. talklittle has been a member there for quite some time and so it makes sense. It's not for everyone, but I appreciate it.

I'm curious, how would you characterize it's "thing"? I poked around a little and read a few comment threads. It looks like the social media version of npr lol. Very dry, matter of fact sorta vibe. I may have just picked some bad threads too

Uhh.. Sounds pretty good to me? No constant spam and repeat jokes. What are you looking for?

[–] [email protected] -1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Maybe not the experience of comunicating to a teacher like im in elementary school or trying to get across to some jerryathic bureocrat? Im exagerating of course but what i mean its that how you describe it sounds sanitaced and restrictive, not fun in my opinion.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

If Tildes is elementary school teacher, kbin/Lemmy is the elementary school class.

Both have a place, one has more noice, but also more content and the other less activity, though pretty worthwhile stuff for what it has.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Well, more power to ya for that. But i believe that the folks over at Tildes moderation are the school class trying to pass as a teacher, or more likelly some guy trying to build an echochamber for themselves with a bunch of yes men and that doesnt lead to worthwhile discussion and just to a circlejerk, and if you whant one of those then you are better off listening to relaxing dolphin sounds, asmr or reiki on your favorite media platform since those are more reasuring, make you feel more safe and relaxed and probably would help you sleep better.

Everyone is a mod there

I don't know what you've been talking about there since I can't agree with that experience but get off your high horse if you can with that stick up your ass.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

Up yours then asshole. Being all rude just for defending wortless tildes. Why arent you there right now then? Seing as you love it so much than you cant take critisism of it without being rude and atacking me, and why havent you been banned from there if this is how you react to a discusion, by atacking those you are arguing with? Well then just get over it punk.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Dude... Check out your own tone. I get you don't like it and while you didn't personally attack me you're just incredibly rude and no one but those that all ready think like you can agree with your comment.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

Dude... you started it with the horse and the stick. Now i cant take you seriously.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Sure thing, that's one way to deflect.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

And this is what i meant when i was telling you about why i prefer the free nature of something like lemmy rather that a restrictive echochameber like tildes, you can call me an ashole that takes drugs on top of a horse and i can call you a jerkish snowflake without any of us getting banned, and while yes the discusion did devolve into a monkey slap fight, whe can choose when to disengage and even if whe whant to block the other user. This choise is owrs and not of some power tripping jannie. If whe where having a discucion like this over at tilde whe both would have been banned by now for being rude. So my conclusion is fuck em (lol).

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Well how you go about doing this is not really constructive nor that coherent.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Well then, thats what happens when you lose credibility by insulting oneself, so now all i can offer you afther that is another monkey slap, so accept it if you whant or just move on, atleast before some asshat barges in and tells us to kiss or get a room. Im not even that butthurt abbout your horse riding up butt stick response, just disapointed.
