    Reddit is the most new-user-unfriendly site I have ever been to. You’ve got to farm an unknown amount of karma before you can post or comment in subreddits. There’s a reason I’m at Lemmy now. Fuck Reddit. (Also, 4chan is a toilet. The occasional nuggets of good stuff aren’t worth trawling through pages of shitposts for.)

    Rule of thumb: the more something is advertised, the more shit it is for one reason or another, and you’ll do well to avoid it altogether. When I’m advising people on contractors, my number 1 rule is: if they’re on TV, they’re criminals, I promise you.

    I don’t know about the rest of the images, but the last one is definitely photoshopped. Check out the reflection on the floor.

      The second picture on the house seems suspicious as well.

      By exception, advertising is forbidden at the following locations:

      On the walls of buildings except when these walls are blind or have at least one opening with a unit area of less than 0,50 m²

      Within 100 meters and in the field of visibility of buildings with an aesthetic, historic or picturesque character

        Or woodworking. Or drones. Or… basically any sport, including basket and soccer/football. Or Maine coons. Or tiny houses. Or off-grid cabins. Or…

    What’s behind the fake building front?

    And damn it’s ugly in terms of city and building front and feel. Such a strong color. I wonder how it looks IRL.

      Behind the front is a building that looks a lot like what you’re seeing.That’s a common practice to make the construction work less visible. Of course, it’s less useful when there’s a giant red banner in the middle of it.

    I’m not sure about infuriating. Maybe more like pathetic. Can that even make economic sense if you’re an ad-driven business yourself?

    Wow, I’ve never seen them actually pull ads for membership. Site must be struggling for real users. Bot takeover isn’t working out, shouldn’t have banned the top users for petty bullshit.

    The archive of past posts and problem solving is the greatest value of the site.

      raises hand

      Literally in the top 1% of karma users in 2023. Banned in 2024 for…

      checks notes

      …posting a comment that my bike was stolen when I was 7.

      Reddit claims the ban was done by a human. However I just cannot see a human looking at the post I got banned for, and saying “This guy deserves to get banned”.

      My best theory, based on the timeline, is that they offered me a presale enter IPO offering before it went public. At the time I was on cancer treatment, and had $0 income, with my two sisters and mom paying for my apartment.

      I had no ability to buy an IPO.

      3 days after it went public, I still didn’t own stock, and was banned. Because I said my bike was stolen 30+ years earlier.

      They’ve done it before in the USA. My guess is that they want to push their non-English offerings, which is something they’ve only focused on recently.
