I've often seen it adjusted for things like Reddit as such:

90% of users only view

9% of users vote

1% of users comment

Interestingly enough, old.reddit users are in the single digit percentages:

Even if they weren't hostile towards old.reddit (the ads are far less invasive and effective), they could make a strong argument for not wanting to support a dwindling, tiny userbase.

Depends on your exit node.

Also if you change the front page to be US-specific it'll force a login.

As usual, people in the US get the shaft when it comes to privacy things.

Oh no! The police aren't busy with more serious laws so they focus on the only laws people are breaking at the moment!

Why does this mean they suck, exactly? If you want to drive fast, drive on roads designed for fast driving.

Looks like everyone misread my comment. I guess I'll delete it before the algorithm punishes me further.

That's exactly how it worked for my agency.

They were dragging new hires in and ordering them to sign away the union without knowing anything about them.

Too true, but when you see a kid crying about their spilled ice cream, do you go "Haha, cry harder dipshit!" Ice cream doesn't matter, right?

Or should you just be kind to others as your starting point?

$10 says they still think AI is great at counting things.

Because they have some meaning (and arguably, value) beyond "a number we choose to be a meme."

The minute enough people knew what 6 7 was, it lost the only value it had: being an inside joke and using it to exclude others not in the know.

Serious question:

Have you ever wondered why you enjoy being shitty to other people?
