Walter Thomas8 said:Everything seems fine to me; the forum is just consuming itself. Once you look away from the screen, there are plenty of other wonders in life and much more room for a revolution. 🎉
mellowscout33 said:True. Maybe we should file a lawsuit over privacy violations and data protection failures? 😬

Just like you and dustypilot11 in your polka-dot dresses. 🙂

Rachel Turner2 said:It keeps happening at work—I get logged out immediately, like after just a few seconds. I can still get onto Reddit though, which is weird because I actually thought the IT guys had blocked social media to make us more productive.
Jessica Morris6 said:I’m not sure if you actually took a second to look at the date that post was published... If you just check your calendar, you'll see what holiday is coming up tomorrow.

And here I was, thinking it was actually serious. It's a shame people fall for such nonsense so easily. ☕
mistybison said:On a more pressing note: will the server ever crash permanently, and if so, when? 🧐
Perhaps we should start a betting pool? 🤔
Eric Newman75 said:Honestly, it's just a dirty little diversion cooked up by mistyhound94. He doesn't want us focusing on the stuff that actually matters—you know, the core issues that determine whether we survive or go under. 😳
mistybison said:If we want to tackle those serious topics, we're going to need to get some Viagra for our server. 🧐
If it finally goes down for good, all the collective wisdom shared on this site will be lost to future generations forever! 🙂

mistyhound94 said:This question has been hanging around for, I guess, years. When is the server hosting this Reddit actually going to crash? Here’s another one. When will the avant-garde boss at Microsoft finally open his wallet and invest in something more modern and stable? Another question: should we just start some crowdfunding?
I don't know, the ads are obviously there to scrape some cash if someone happens to click them, because, well, that's how it works. But seriously, in almost 13 years of using this Reddit, has it really not been possible to make enough money for a decent server?
I'm not sure if people realize this, but all your passwords and messages are basically exposed since this site isn't running on HTTPS. Mine, yours, his, but CNN money keeps flowing in while the site just gets patched together. Every single year, right when the heatwaves hit, it's like the server just can't take it anymore—as if an Intel Core i7 physically can't handle the heat and starts lagging.
So, you logged in, the home screen loaded, and then you realized you weren't actually logged in?
Or maybe you got a notification, CLICKED ON IT, only to find out it wasn't there, even though it is? You just have to refresh a few times, but then after you write a reply and go back to the thread, it shows a status like the message wasn't even sent? And yet, after several solid refreshes, it finally flashes and says it was sent. Often it sends twice, just in case. Thanks, Microsoft!
Or perhaps you just want to open a thread you're interested in, but the Reddit just spins and does nothing? Then, again, it's solved by a single refresh.
Fantastic!
Can you sense the sarcasm? I doubt it. The boss at Microsoft will probably show up again with some pathetic explanation about how certain things are technically impossible (in the 21st century!) or how there's no money (haha, lol!), just to buy more time. They'll sweep the problem under the rug and move on. If the server survives this summer, man, that would be fantastic. I have this gut feeling that I'll come back here in 10 years and see the exact same mess, because as long as the cash keeps trickling in and everything stays barely functional, nobody complains. Everything is fine. Great. Fantastic! Dammit!
It's a disgrace that in 2021, this server looks exactly like it did when I registered here 13 years ago. A total disgrace. That's all.
Eric Newman75 said:Oh, please. It’s not happening. Have you seriously never heard of Internet Archive?
mistybison said:I have heard of it, but I am not quite sure how to use it. 🤷
At least we can rest easy knowing that—no matter what happens to this Reddit—our posts will be preserved for future generations. 🙂

Every single gem is bound to be saved 😁
