One day we may need to have ads to pay the bills if we have another massive Reddit exodus. What are your thoughts on creating an alternate one that says something like “your data not tracked or sold”?

Thanks for making this, and especially using an excellent design in a shareable meme format that pitches Lemmy simply to users.

Thx.

I'm hostile to ads, fully and openly and I'd rather pay than be forced to look at ads. But that's just my personal opinion and I would not want to impose it on anyone. At least, I think that's also what freedom should mean: the freedom for anyone to disagree with me and me with anyone ;)

The first version of the file had no mention of ads (I simply deleted it by mistake ;) and you can get the SVG here.

Merci Bien

Tout le plaisir est pour moi.
You're welcome. Even more so than you are perfectly right! Lemmy being ad-free is so f. good. While I was making that silly image, in a hurry in the middle of another job, I had a line about ads (I hate ads) but somehow managed to delete it :/

Ca pourrait presque être le nom d'une philosophie à laquelle je pourrais adhérer, ça ;)

Im brand new here and digging it. The lack of ads is a big part of that. That and the chiller vibe. I do wish it had gifs/videos. Not just images & text

Welcome! There are a few gifs, posted one on !lego@lemm.ee yesterday

[–] SSGGambit@lemm.ee 2 points 10 months ago

Thank you!

Ah! That’s the fist I’ve seen. Glad to know that it supports the format. I hadn’t seen any and was beginning to wonder.

Reddit users will tell you they used their revanced version of their old client and there are no apps

[–] guaraguaito@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 10 months ago

Some might — but the type of people I’m trying to attract just use the mobile app

no ads public modlogs, chiller mods
