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

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.

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. 😆

Yup.

I used to tell people to turn it off and back on again. Now I tell other people how to tell people to turn it off and back on again.
