Redreader still works and is open source.

I took it to mean that if you weren't rich or beautiful, you would be censored. The censorship being a way to show that you weren't important.

Of course, that wouldn't actually be the case in real life, though it may feel that way. If we were looking through the lens from a big data company, it would be true that we're just one data point in a sea of data points, but they rely on the sea and the sea is made of me's.

One of my special interests is humor (probably because of my difficulties with it) and I like to know why things work. If you can't put it into words, that's fine. It's a fairly common response, to the point where "it isn't funny if you have to explain it" is a common saying.

Don't tell people it's not important if they ask. That just makes people feel excluded because it's clearly important to them.

Lots of people have difficulty putting into words why something is funny. It's usually not something they can easily put into words unless they have a background in comedy. I'm not overly bothered by it.

You'll want something like lib redirect or a reddit viewer from fdroid, I recommend radreader.

Rich people will say, money doesn't matter. But they haven't experienced actually not having it. It's ironic.

Attractive people say, looks don't matter, but they've always had good looks. It's ironic.

The joke plays on the way deleted comments on Reddit show up as deleted by deleted user, sounding similar to the earlier ironies: Deleted says deleted. Since that last is effectively meaningless, and entirely different underneath from the reaction-to-judgement underlying the first two, it's also humour from the non-sequitur.

So it turns a frustration with rich and attractive people telling us not to worry about money and looks, into a surreal joke comparing the pattern to deleted Reddit comments.

I think that's the opposite.

"Which doesn't matter."

-- English professor.

Remember that I am thy creature; I ought to be thy Adam, but I am rather the fallen angel, whom thou drivest from joy for no misdeed. Everywhere I see bliss, from which I alone am irrevocably excluded. I was benevolent and good; misery made me a fiend. Make me happy, and I shall again be virtuous.

May Reddit die

[email protected]

yeah totally a reddit thing. never happens here

[email protected]

You can also use the revanced patcher on the official Reddit app to remove all ads and suggested posts etc.

[email protected]

But, in my opinion, they both matter. What's your point?

[email protected]

I mean, the word 'which' doesn't matter, according to the English professor.

Sure, if you're taking the joke seriously about money, looks and [removed], I agree they all matter to some extent.

Censorship does not matter -- censored people (?)

Oh, right. Thank you for taking the time to reply with patience and clarity.
