Having been to both, I can assure you the rides at Cedar Point are much, much better. Disney World is a theme park with a full experience, such as themed attractions and cosplayers. It’s great for young kids.

Cedar Point has the awesome coasters that thrill -seeking adults will want. It’s more like Universal Studios or Six Flags

FWIW, when I see that, it’s usually when I hit back from going into a comment. Reloading the page usually fixes it.

There’s plenty of good business reasons not to want to deal with these requests. Even if the first ones would be easier to just turn over, the 1000th, or millionth gets overwhelming

Isn’t there some sort of statute of limitations here? 12 years is an awfully long time

Possibly. I’m not entirely sure how to interpret that part.

One plausible scenario is that they brought in a consultant, who said their data would be worth $XXXX on the open market. A common element of MBA thinking is that any potential profits are something you are entitled to, regardless of the consequences. It’s also pretty clear they don’t have a mature management team, or a viable path to realize those profits. But they had to stop someone else from getting it, so there was a rushed decision. I don’t quite know how it coincided with killing 3rd party apps, though, unless it was just more really incompetent management.

I experienced the same thing! (Except my home instance is FMHY, not LW)

It is the same experience as trying to view NSFW subs on another instance that I’m not logged into. I already know there’s a filter that won’t show NSFW if you aren’t logged in, which explains those. I even checked, and didn’t see this as having anything marked NSFW.

I’m going to chalk it up as a Lemmy bug.

There is, and it’s not completely dead

Reddit isn’t just trying to balance the budget - they are specifically scrambling to make things work (or at least, look like they will work) for an IPO, which is a beast in and of itself.

I don’t use callbacks, and I don’t leave messages, because no company has ever actually called me back. It’s a great idea, but IME they never execute it.

There’s a wide spectrum of responses people can have to a breakup. Anger to the point of violence is naturally low in most modern societies, but it does exist.

When you have that breakup moment in person, you force a lot of emotions to flood them all at once. Often, they thought things were going well. This creates a strong sense of rejection, hurts their self-esteem, and puts them immediately on the defensive. It can also trigger a fight-or-flight response, and manifest as anger.

Ghosting flattens the curve. Over the course of days or weeks, the ghostee more gradually recognizes and comes to terms with the fact that the ghoster is no longer interested in them. This often happens without there being a flashpoint moment to set them off.

It’s still rude, but I absolutely see the value in it

Face to face is not only unnecessary, but often counter-productive. You aren’t likely to just already be at the same place, so one or both of you must travel to the agreed upon meeting place, just to deliver the bad news. It also often forces an unwanted and pointless conversation, and draws out what may be a painful subject for both people. And this assumes that it goes well- others have mentioned the risk of violence, extreme emotional distress, etc.

I (generally) oppose ghosting, but it can be done remotely.

As the fediverse grows, I’m sure you’ll start to see instances that shadow-ban others. An easy way would be firewall rules, but there are others.

In the meantime, you can use a 3rd party tool https://fba.ryona.agency/?domain=lemmygrad.ml
