I couldn't give less of a shit what people who are still on Reddit think of me. They lost whatever argument they might make by still being on Reddit. I hope they enjoy Google scraping their stupid comments for money.

Not arguing the uselessness of opinions about mods, especially on reddit. That said...

You do realize that google, and everyone else, scrape the hell out of lemmy right? This shit is 100% public and the nature of federation means that even if some instances officially have some rules against scraping, it just has to be federated to an instance that doesn't. Only reason the fediverse isn't talked about more in terms of use as training data is that it has significantly less content, not because it isn't being used.

Not OP.

Steve Huffman is a pissy piggy boy because he killed the API (just to sell this now exclusive data for cheap), like his hero Muskie did. Many of us ended up here not because of our data being sold, but because he gated how we can use the platform, besides other weird decisions. There's no monopoly on hoarding Lemmy's data, it belongs to everyone, and everyone can scrap it. What irks me and others is that he claimed it as his property, what is probably right by their EULA, but hasn't been done in years Reddit existed.

I realize that Google didn't pay Lemmy creators millions for the "privilege."

Reddit got paid for YOUR words.

/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'

~ **8. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.
