Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

They would have run it into the ground with mismanagement and a new chat application would become the popular choice within a year, while Microslop's new acquisition fades into obscurity, eventually to be depreciated and shut down my Microslop themselves.

As has happened multiple times already in history.

Only before microslop would have found yet more ways like charging for additional characters past a 250 word limit and connecting to a chat for more than an hour :'). I seriously miss groups/social. When microslop/xbox actually had that false sense of caring for their communities
