a good reason not to use it other than preference

So why is that your preference? You didn’t really say.

Why not to everyone’s front door?

It would be a different AI though. So you can do that with people…

Your have to be rich yourself to get away with reading the rich.

I don’t remember seeing a guy running for Congress that promised he’d prevent huge corporations from running rough shod over everything.

What we need is ranked voting so someone like that might have a chance on the ballot.

The free will myth is especially damaging, as it steers people away from pragmatic solutions and towards blame and punitive policies.

I think I’m you just mean T. What’s an LGB surgury?

It would be nice if lemmy had the same level of niche communities as Reddit. That requires large total numbers I think.

One of the comments on the Verge article, that I agree with:

There’s nothing wrong with the mods being volunteers. Reddit just needs to respect them (and the other users) more. In fact if the mods were paid employees there’d just be even less standing in the way of these administration deuchebag moves. And I think that if they were paid hires there’d be less assurance that the mods were truly interested in the subject matter of their subs - I’m just hypothesizing there. Anyway I don’t think the volunteer model wasn’t working. It’s the admin layer outside the mods that’s broken.
