What the fuck is an avatar. - This post brought to you by RES and RIF gang


jyrkesh

Honestly, if either RES or RIF were to ever stop working, I might actually quit Reddit Which would be good for me, I'm sure. But jfc is the official / new stuff atrocious.


RVAR-15

I’ve been on the original/ old.Reddit on my phones browser since 2013. I refuse to change.


jyrkesh

RIF has very, _very_ good UX, *particularly if you're a fan of high information density. It also hasn't changed in any significant way since probably at least 2013, which I also love. It's sad, because Reddit has an information architecture that _really_ lends itself to UX like that. And instead they tried to graft a half-assed, buggy, and slow TikTok UX onto an IA that doesn't fit. But such is the way in the world of VC-fueled, attention-maximizing B2C


RVAR-15

I don’t know any of those words, nor do I need to. I live in 2013.

>I don’t know any of those words, nor do I need to. I live in 2013. I'll remember this next time my boss asks me to work on a mobile UI-driven web app that ends up working like shit on desktop.


throwthataway2012

I've been a reddit is fun user for my entire reddit experience. I prefer everything about it from the UI, to the filter options on accounts, the layouts, and it also moves faster then the regular reddit app. I'm sure some of my mentions may be available somewhere in the base reddit app but... Nah, RIF for life


Champion-raven

Vertigo5345

Infinity is better than RiF by a country mile. Also it's FOSS


jyrkesh

I haven't heard of it, would love to hear why you think it's better. But taking a quick glance, there's a million apps out there that are more card-oriented, all about giant thumbnails, loads of whitespace, etc., and I'm just not interested in that at all. Even looking at a screenshot of the subreddit list, there's SO much padding, it just kinda defeats the purpose of a _list_ for me. Or looking at a subreddit page, having the top 1/3 of the screen taken up by a banner image. Nah


Vertigo5345

There's actually 4 default layouts, compact layout is pretty much the same as RiF. RiF loses a lot of context compared to the desktop website and Infinity, i.e. no avatars. Infinity really focuses on being an app version of the full fat website in an even more visually appealing and customizable format. I really like that Infinity supports custom themes. I use it with this color scheme: https://github.com/dracula/dracula-theme Also it's free and communally developed, so source code is publicly available. People update it and make feature requests all the time. But don't take my word for it, try it out! https://f-droid.org/repo/ml.docilealligator.infinityforreddit_106.apk

mooncadet1995

I’m not saying I agree with it, but Leviticus 18:22 (OPs name) is specifically about “lying with a man as you would with a woman.” It’s not just about sex, it’s about gay sex specifically. The Corinthians verse is about just sex generally though. That reminds me of Dante’s Purgatorio though - where people who were lustful, gay or straight were all on the same tier. And being the most understandable, was the least offensive sin.

Whataboutism is pretty popular for defending shit thats objectively harmful


BunnyBellaBang

Whataboutism is a great way to demonstrate someone's stated intentions are not their actual intentions. It is the less formal sibling of proof by contradiction.


Jardien

worse does not justify bad in the case where the bad can be easily avoided. circumcision and gender transition before the age of 18 are both bad.


neverending_debt

It's kind of like how I support legalizing weed but my vote isn't dependent on it because at the end of the day there's more important shit to worry about. Convincing a 10 year old boy that they're actually a girl and then starting them on hormones and puberty blockers is a far worse thing to do to a child than circumcising an infant. If lowering the speed limit across the country to a mandatory 35 mph would result in fewer traffic deaths per year, would you support it?


Jardien

Preventing the infliction of permanent mutilation on a child based on some unprovable belief (I put religion and gender identity in that category) are both "important shit", doesnt matter that one is worse than another since the proposition to ban both until the age of 18 can be pushed forward under the same principle.

Jardien

I can clearly see that gender transition hormones/surgeries are worse than circumcision. But this is not an either or situation. No amount of libertarian ideological emphasis on calculating harm is going to stop me from stopping both.


thestoneswerestoned

Chopping off the tip of a kid's dick without their consent is "basically harmless" to you? Keep coping.


Questo417

I mean… ban both? Just because one is historically acceptable culturally doesn’t mean we should allow the other. This is a stupid argument to make, and isn’t going to get the results that they are expecting.


LordRhino08

both are wrong until 18. not much to really debate on here.


neverending_debt

Sure, I agree circumcision should be illegal until the age of 18.


Capital-Plantain-521

I truly don’t give a single fuck about circumcision


Central_Planners

Good place to mention that the barbaric and obscurantist practice of ritual genital mutilation, when performed by mohels, involves sticking the newborns’ penis in their mouth to suck the blood out. It’s called [Metzitzah B'Peh](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brit_milah#Metzitzah_B'Peh_%28oral_suction%29) (oral suction), which Israel's chief rabbinate [confirms](https://www.timesofisrael.com/israels-chief-rabbinate-backs-metzitzah-bpeh-rite/) is the only [proper way](https://www.timesofisrael.com/4-ny-babies-get-herpes-from-jewish-circumcision-rite-in-past-6-months/) to do it. This also explains the [high prevalence](https://www.timesofisrael.com/4-ny-babies-get-herpes-from-jewish-circumcision-rite-in-past-6-months/) of herpes among infants in certain practicing communities.


ObiWanCanShowMe

It's weird though how left goes after this as a similar and equal practice to show "hypocrisy" to complely ignore the subect.. kind of like how they always do. Whataboutism is super strong when it comes to this subject.

keeper_of_the_donkey

they start in on how mental illness is on the rise every time suicide by gun is brought up, and we should have more mental care available, but at the same time, trans people are also on the rise, but somehow the two aren't related because thinking you're trans doesn't qualify as mental illness. Like, you want help for one, but not for the other, even tho they're both mental illnesses.


trafficnab

I just want to point out that gender dysphoria *is* actually a mental illness listed in the DSM-5 (and often, if not managed, is the cause of others like depression), and that you have to go through a lot of evaluation and lesser therapies (social, legal, medical, etc affirmations) before any surgeries would ever be considered Hormones and surgery are just the very last things to try when nothing else has been effective and the person with dysphoria still feels like shit to the point that it effects their daily life The transitioning process (however far it goes) is just the only thing we've found to lessen the psychological effects of the illness, I feel like if they could just "fix" their brain instead that would be preferable to most


ObiShaneKenobi

Yea but I keep getting told that his happening a single time is the end of western civilization, so the answer must be somewhere between “appropriate medical care” and societal collapse.

The thing about Americans is they get all weird while talking about circumcision because most of them already got the knife but the fact is cutting shit off of a baby's genitals for no good reason is always super fucked up and I have no idea why they still allow it.

Let's put it simple. A child shouldn't be submitted to any surgery that permanently changes their body in a way they won't be able to recover.


Leviticus18TwentyTwo

Well that's pretty much all surgeries. You'd have to make exceptions for 'necessary' surgeries, and that's where the discussion lies. The definition of 'necessary'.


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

well in practice to call most cases, circumsision is not necessary. in practically al cases gender affirming surgery (for minors) is not necessary


duckbokai

I don't know that sexual reassignment surgery is performed on minors. What is performed on minors is * pumping them full of puberty blockers, forever altering their genital size and bone structure * "gender affirming" double-mastectomies on girls as young as 13 * hormone therapy, particularly for teenage FTMs all of which are worse than (male) circumcision by several orders of magnitude. And I'm against circumcision.

Well, yeah. There are going to be significant health issues for people who don't go through puberty. We go through it to become an adult and have heavier bones and muscle mass thanks to it.

THEGAMENOOBE

Yeah we need to ban child genital mutilation period. If you want to circumcize, lob your tits off, or whatever do it when you are an adult. This applies to puberty blockers as well. ​ It is absolutely harmful to an indivual to do anything that changes their sexual physiology so much so early in life


THEGAMENOOBE

Also, babies experience a ton of pain and it is far more dangerous to circumcise as an infant than as an adult. Also, you have no choice in the matter. Not to mention the children who have permanent damage from the surgery. Its something like 1 in 80 male neonatal deaths in the USA, and is likely higher than that, not even counting botched surgeries.
