Reddit is removing the Direct Message feature, and all active conversations will be archived so you won’t be able to continue ongoing conversations. Reddit also deleted all bad reviews for their app awhile ago. Its rating went from 3.4 to 4.5 stars overnight.

      For me on voyager, the link directs to a comment below on that post left by Rubisco, which links to an article about restricting communication to encourage people to purchase things, which I assume the OP considered worthy of posting here.

        The link worked (on Jerboa) for me, mate. Not sure why they caught hell here. Maybe folk didn’t bother to actually click through? Idk.

        I bet if one makes a post specifically for Valente’s piece it will climb fast. I figured most of lemmy had already seen it, then it quickly got upvoted and commented. -shrugs-

        edit: Wow, was I wrong or what?

          Much like on Reddit, standard practice is skimming the headline, looking at the thumbnail and then voting and occasionally commenting. A rare percentage of the time something looks interesting enough to earn a click through.

          I wish I could say I was above such behaviour but I have certainly been guilty of it myself.
