In this case it has tighter moderation than twitch. the latter's devolved into what is basically a soft core porn site for teenage boys to form parasocial relationships on

Allowing e-whores to grow on the platform was a mistake.

Reddit devs are probably the least competent of any modern social media platform. Any talent goes to an actual site, leaving the typical "redditors" () to work for reddit.

Naturally, this leads pretty much any technical project to be doomed from inception.

> nothing our societal safety net or your future self can provide for protection from your present self.

That's generally the case of rural living as a whole. Internet? fat chance before starlink. have fun with dialup or horrendous phone. This alone limits your financial flexibility greatly. Thank god Starlink exists now.

Have a heart attack? Have fun being dead or getting over it on your own by the time an ambulance shows up!

Ditto for pretty much anything. House fire? tough tits, the fire department will show up an hour later to make sure there's no embers.

Legislation? Unless your state/province is mostly rural (which it pretty much never is), Urbanites are the golden goose. 90% of legislation is made with them in mind.

This has lead rural communities to be entirely self reliant, for good reason. they don't have society to rely on. They, more than pretty much any urbanite, have actual reason to have guns. Taking them away isn't going to change the fact that nobody gives a shit about them on a systemic level lol, and if anything will probably make them resent urbanites more for taking their shit away.

Yes. Suicide doesn't infringe on other people's rights, and in fact, everyone should have the right to it, like you see in actually free countries like Canada.

Using suicide as a safety metric is both misleading and generally in bad faith - it's usually a far better representation of mental health (generally loneliness/depression) or overall quality of life.
