Yeah I agree. Which is why the bot copying all its text here and denying them any traffic from this link aggregator site is bad.

So... basically fuck this website?

TheOctonaut , to Mildly Infuriating in Sideloading won't be enabled where I live

To make it abundantly clear, for most people on earth, and for most of human history, being poor was and is not a blocker to moving. In fact it's a great enabler. Comfortable middle income people don't move.

TheOctonaut , to Comic Strips in Dress by Pizzacakecomic

They're already deleting comments and organising "boosts". Genuinely bizarre.

rich enough to move

Just so we're clear, you're simultaneously too rich to move (like a Guatemalan farmer) and too poor to move (like a IT graduate)?

TheOctonaut , to Comic Strips in Dress by Pizzacakecomic

I have no idea how this is controversial. Why is posting your own memes/comics worse than posting someone else's content?

You can see exactly why in this very comment chain, people talking about organising followers to boost things etc

The point of a link aggregator is not to act as veiled marketing for social media accounts or cosplays. Posting your own shit is 9 times out of 10 just promotional crap. Like this. Lemmy doesn't need content that exists primarily to drive traffic elsewhere, or shit content for the sake of shit content.

TheOctonaut , to Comic Strips in Dress by Pizzacakecomic

No, it isn't. Because, crucially, you're not supposed to care who the other people are. By your definition if 'social media', my Geocities guest book was social media.

TheOctonaut , to Comic Strips in Dress by Pizzacakecomic

It really isn't. Self promotion is pretty terrible for a link aggregation site. You used to be limited in the ratio of what you could post between yours and other content. Then The Other Site decided it was social media. Now you want here to be social media too. No thanks 👍

TheOctonaut , to Comic Strips in Dress by Pizzacakecomic

This is a link aggregation website. It doesn't matter who posts the content. You're thinking of OnlyFans.

Which in this case is appropriate.

TheOctonaut , to Comic Strips in Dress by Pizzacakecomic

Yeah that's a good thing with some artists I suppose.

TheOctonaut , to Comic Strips in Dress by Pizzacakecomic

Why?

TheOctonaut , to Comic Strips in Dress by Pizzacakecomic

Why? That's her comic right there? What does that achieve other than bringing her 'other' business here?

And the ebooks automatically return themselves.

FUCK I've been wasting so many USB drives
