I’m in Europe and I have never in my life seen a gas station that dispenses every fuel through just one hose.

Every fuel has its own hose and “pistol”. Each “pump” has two or three or four hoses.

Vimes’ theory of boots!

The reason that the rich were so rich, Vimes reasoned, was because they managed to spend less money. Take boots, for example. … A really good pair of leather boots cost fifty dollars. But an affordable pair of boots, which were sort of OK for a season or two and then leaked like hell when the cardboard gave out, cost about ten dollars. … But the thing was that good boots lasted for years and years. A man who could afford fifty dollars had a pair of boots that’d still be keeping his feet dry in ten years’ time, while a poor man who could only afford cheap boots would have spent a hundred dollars on boots in the same time and would still have wet feet.

YNAB = you need a budget

YNAB is a web app and mobile app. It’s beauty is that it helps you look FORWARD, instead of tracking your PAST spending.

It’s not much use to see that you spent too much last month, again. Instead, YNAB helps you know what your average expenses are and lets you set aside meaningful amounts for each kind of expense = that’s what we call a BUDGET.

Yes, it has a cost. Yes, it’s ironic to spend money on a tool to save money. But here’s the thing: it really works! For me, it’s easily worth the cost.

because Reddit no longer matters

Oh, this arrogance is amusing. It stems from the phrasing of “no longer”, as if to say that this platform has already been the downfall of Reddit when it so very clearly has not. It might, one day, but that is still in the distant future.

You wish for your comment to be true, when it is merely wishful thinking. Certainly, all of us here want that to be true eventually, but let’s not fool ourselves: Reddit is still unimpressed and practically untouched by the protests and these competing sites. Just look at what we have here: a string of early alpha versions, hastily churned out by a few brave volunteers. Do not get me wrong: I praise their work, as it is indeed impressive, but it is but a drop in the water against the Snoo behemoth.

The influx of users from Reddit is significant, but only from the perspective of the Fediverse. From the perspective of Reddit, it is nothing. They say good riddance to annoying users; and it is exactly these users that come here instead. Those that remain on Reddit, may likely be those that “we don’t want them here” while the influx is exactly the kind of users that we do want.

There is a fine truth in your statement, although maybe different than you meant it: Reddit does not and should not matter for users in the fediverse. In that sense, what Reddit does and is, really does not matter. Fediverse users should ignore Reddit as a whole, not even regarding it as the enemy. In that sense, Reddit does not matter. In much the same way that gas prices don’t matter to an ant.
