The BuyItForLife subreddit is trying to figure out what to do with the changes hitting Reddit and some really interesting points about possible attempts to advertise products that aren’t really BIFL. Would be great if we could encourage them to come here. Edit to add link that won’t let Reddit track you: https://teddit.adminforge.de/r/BuyItForLife/comments/14dnxaf/post_blackout_reddit_and_the_future_of/
I’d love to see BIFL here.
It’s a shame so many people are poopooing moving to the Threadiverse. From the replies I am reading to people suggesting coming here, it seems like people think it’s more convenient to implicated than it actually is and are straight up misinformed about how the Fediverse works.
Looks like some of us need to get active on Reddit again to correct this.
I’d love it if we could filter out products that are truly BIFL, i.e. products that are solid for 10+ years rather than ones that are great for a year or two. If I’m buying for longevity then I don’t want to get something that’ll break or degrade in a short amount of time.
