Definitely! Though I would say avoiding purposeful harm to their ego should be more than a nice gesture. That’s just basic respect. Trying to avoid accidental harm, sure.

You already kinda said it—this is a problem with the relationship with your boss, not with the book.

With my boss, I can just say, “Honestly, this one was a miss for me. I appreciate the recommendation, and I wanted to give it a chance, but I didn’t find much actionable substance in it. What did you get out of it?”

If you don’t feel like you can do that, have a conversation with him about how he likes to receive feedback. If the answer is “he doesn’t,” it might be time to go boss shopping. But I doubt that will be the case.

It could absolutely be implemented by Sync.

I will talk to rude people that harass the admins of a free service that way.

You fucking donkey, did you read their comment before you replied to it? They aren’t doing it just because they want to; there are legal implications.

I wonder this same thing about my company. The only rational theory I’ve heard - which is completely unconfirmed - is that they aren’t willing to sell the building because it’s still needed for the IT team and a few other purposes, but need a certain occupancy level to not be penalized on their taxes.

“MothBookkeeper is the dictator of the world, and I completely trust his decisions.”

Nevermind the logistics of that; power lives where people believe it does.

Then I could make multiple beneficial changes, such as:

• Heavily taxing the rich
• Enacting drastic climate policy
• Banning paper stickers that rip as you try to take them off
• Sending Mitch McConnell on a rocket into the sun

“Breathe if you’re a stupid dumb dumb head.”

I reject their premise.

Was this written by AI?

I’d settle for more transparency from the dev about what happens with your data when you pay. Is it still collected?

Did you try reporting it?

Did you read the article? The guy almost killed himself from having to listen to comments like this one. Asshole. Keep it to yourself.

I appreciate you honestly giving your opinion when it conflicts with the popular sentiment, and I don’t think you should be downvoted for that.

But this is such a shit take, wtf.

Well, my story isn’t particularly interesting, but I imagine it’s similar to many others’.

I used RIF. Reddit killed RIF. I wasn’t a fan of how they handled that at all, and it instantly soured me against the company. Also, their own app is terrible.

I browsed /r/RedditAlternatives for answers, and tried a few. Lemmy felt most like what I enjoyed about Reddit, and it wasn’t totally devoid of content. I figured out how instances worked, picked a random one, thinking I’d choose my favorite later, and started posting a comment here and there. I tried a bunch of apps, moved from Beehaw to lemmy.world, found communities that I liked, and… well here we are.

I’ll admit, I’ve visited Reddit a few times when Lemmy has felt stale, but mostly I’ve completely moved over without missing it. The vibe is much better, like early Reddit, despite having less content. I’ve felt compelled to contribute more often myself, which makes it more fun.

I disagree. The views during /r/place are negligible. Advertising Lemmy and stealing their users: priceless.

We can have nice design without the corporate bullshit. They aren’t the same thing.

You’re great.

Let’s just say it, the icon sucks ass.

That’s sad, but comforting in a way.

In our office, any time someone leaves their screen unlocked, we turn everything upside down in the display settings. Good way to remind people to Win + L when they get up. 😆
