      -13% after hours on one day is huge. Many stock markets having emergency stops if the main index drops by 10% in a day.

      It’s referring to that after-hours part.

    Reddit has said it is working to convince logged-out users to create accounts as logged-in users, which are more lucrative for its business.

    By “convince,” they mean:

    • Popup to automatically sign in with Google
    • A button right under where you close that popup that shows a QR code to install the app
    • Bottom bar on mobile telling you to make an account
    • Clicking an upvote or downvote button instantly sending you to the account signup page, even if clicked by accident
    • Full-screen popup only on mobile to download the app if you’re accessing anything NSFW (includes posts that simply have too much vulgar language, and are considered “NSFW” in that community, as well as any account page for an account that has ever made an NSFW post)

    Yes, very convincing, heavily coercive even!

    Reddit has benefited from Google search updates and internal site improvements that have helped it gain a significant amount of new and returning users, which the social company refers to as logged-out users, over the past year and a half. Reddit has said it is working to convince logged-out users to create accounts as logged-in users, which are more lucrative for its business.

    Expect to see more login paywall bullshit from Reddit.

      The best way to increase the usage base of a social media site is to block people from accessing it. Everybody knows that.

          I was “suspended” (by the admins, from the whole site – not just banned by mods from a particular subreddit) because I accurately reported misinformation in r/conservative and the snowflake mods whined that it was “report abuse.”

          I suggested Ukraine started attacking back at Russian civil infrastructure after Russia attacked a shopping mall.

          Spez did not like that one bit, since he’s a Russia supporter.

        It’s too bad when one person on planet Earth has published a solution to a problem you have. And it’s some random commenter on Reddit from a few years ago. And under optimal conditions, the only thing to do would be to give a little thank you.

      Dollar General‽ Please. Don’t insult DG like that, dude looks no better than Dollar Tree grade

      (For non-Americans, Dollar General is a “discount” store chain, largely found in “food deserts”. Dollar Tree is a bonafide dollar store where everything (was anyways) just a dollar. Yes, the quality is about as crap as you’d expect (though sometimes they did sell good stuff if they were able to acquire it cheap enough))
