First past the post. It's not new

Biden was the better choice between two garbage candidates because no one voted in the primaries. This was literally his platform, and most who did vote wanted that.

Obama couldn't even get Merrick Garland on the bench... This country is ill

So if these kids can work, they can vote, right?

I've found it has the weirdest active communities. The best poison control first line is through a facebook group.

It's great for 'boomer knowledge'. Geo trackers, foraging, mushroom growing, 80's japanese guitars, tree ID, etc.

Marketplace has taken away some of the sketchiness of Craigslist.

Facebook and Meta and Zucc are evil, but facebook is still a useful tool

Facebook is nowhere near as dead as you think it is. It is still the best place for local groups and many niche hobbyist groups. I really don't want reddit to be another version of that, 1 crappy social site is enough. Also you're missing a key differentiating factor: facebook has actual paid content moderators.

I don't think reddit will die, at least not right away (remember, digg shut down finally in 2018).

Best case scenario is they hemorrhage users, fail ipo, and then join the fediverse. I say this because joining will create a bridge for new users to come here.
Worst case scenario is they become like twitter. which is possible.
My money is on them trying to sell to Microsoft or Google for ai training, and keeping their api private.

It's been archived, but I can't find an easy way to browse it. So far I've just been using the web archives plugin and finding a archived version of a page

I've gotten it to give boiler plate for converting one library to another for certain embedded protocols for different platforms. It creates entry level code, but nothing that's too hard to clean up or to get the gist of how a library works.

This would go against Dem's #1 policy: self-sabotage.

3rd party, on a national scale, is guaranteed to fail in fptp. The only one who wins in fptp is the least hated (of 2) candidate. 3rd party votes just suck votes that could be voted against that most hated candidate

I've never heard of either, After reading about them, are there any down sides?

WSB and other trading subs also come to mind. I wonder how much actual market manipulation happens there.
