The post volume is still much lower, but that isn’t all bad, since the toxicity and quality isn’t as bad and unlimited scroll time isn’t healthy.

RTX 3060 12GB works great on Linux using the Nvidia drivers and CUDA. No reason why it wouldn’t.

It’s the same logic they’re still using: they want to monetize Reddit more aggressively, even if that kills its appeal and they have to brutalize their own community to do it.

They fired Victoria because they were trying to aggressively monetize IAmAs in ways that were going to fuck community interests, and Victoria pushed back. Think Rampart, except companies can pay to ensure that it doesn’t become a PR fiasco, so it’s guaranteed astroturf.

Reddit has been classy ever since.

The mob boss who wants $8/mo for a lame service but won’t harm you if you don’t want it?

You’re right - having multiple copies of everything is a drawback of housing each application in its own container or VM. The standard rejoinder is that disk space is cheap. The validity of that rejoinder depends on what you’re doing and what hardware or budget you are working with.

Another problem is that old versions of these dependencies will be baked into an image that is then used for many years without updates. This ensures the application keeps working without being disrupted by an update to a shared library, but it also means things like security flaws persist. Arguably, this is mitigated by only that image having the problem, but one insecure app can be a real problem - especially when it accesses shared resources - and when the same problem applies to many applications.

Compiled code optimized for a specific system’s hardware is less relevant than it used to be - even Gentoo users do not focus on this anymore. Rolling your own container isn’t much harder than compiling with your own options.

Creating an instance is not free and requires some effort (including a little research). Discord is free and creating a server is as easy as falling off a log. I don’t like Discord, but let’s be objective about why this happens.
