Could potentially be hundreds though, and puts a lot of work on users to look around for the best one -> most likely the communities in bigger instances will win out.

Ideally you’d want 3-4, but 300.

How is rust more memory efficient than c or c++?

Thank you kind sir

Should be fine if we can get a setting to have no bots respond to you unless you summon them

Megathread? Why not just use !reddit@lemmy.ml ?

What does bill gates have anything to do with this

Matrix is federated, but only within itself. The realtime messages would flood the normal fediverse.

There’s only two apps right now, mlem for ios, jerboa for android. Both in early stages of development.

I doubt it, as that would allow almost every third party app to be exempt.

Oh wait, just saw the other post

Nice, wonder if it works on desktop too. I’ve had to use an extension so far.

Yeah if someone is leaving reddit, makes sense they’d want to use up any coins they have left.

It’s not really a good comparison to use the value of gold on earth for Smaug’s wealth, you have to use the value of gold in middle earth, which is likely higher.

It’s just temporary hype. Things should settle down eventually, though never all the way down to where they were. pagination, no karma or rewards, no agressive notifications, etc. all mean lemmy is a far healthier platform than Reddit.

OoO, I like #threadiverse, was never fond of how the whole fediverse is mashed together.

It’s much nicer though, lemmy is not designed to be addictive so it’s much easier to not waste time on it.

…I think you did. It’s been semi-ironically a compliment since forever

The whole imaginary network is gorgeous. I wonder if we could convince them to work here as well.

Yall need to learn a RTL language.

Biggest thing lemmy devs need right now is more devs, not money (though money doesn’t hurt). If you could find someone new and convince them to work on it (possibly with a bounty) that would probably be more helpful.

They’re fine when appropriate. It’s nauseating how they’re inserted everywhere.

That would probably require third party cookies which most people block for very valid reasons

yeah they’re tankies alright. Most of them came when r/genzedong was quarantined.

Not just the slur filter, the whole strong leftist flavor, hard moderation, and no stupid ideals of free speech lemmy had basically sent all the right wing extremists running.

This is supposed to be for Natalie Portman. Doesn’t make much sense here

Not much point, students don’t choose the textbooks.

No, p2p and federation are both different forms of decentralization

That’s not “true” decentralization, it’s just another type of it. The fediverse uses a form called federation, while scuttlebut uses p2p.

You can change your theme under settings, but I wish it was automatic

Huh, I thought websockets are far more efficient that http.

Maybe not rules, but I think it is desirable to change how people think about it through UX.

Currently the downvote button is equivalent to upvote, just a casual thing you can do. If it’s meant to have a different meaning, it should look different.

Same thing with clubhouse. Look how well that did

It’s the one the devs run and so is often treated as such, but they discourage it in order to encourage decentralization and because they don’t want too much moderation overhead.

I recently switched over since neeva shut down (though I’ve had a free account for a while). It’s amazing how good it is sometimes.

I thought the whole point of the Fediverse was to have an entire social media website to myself!

You still can if you’re technical enough. Many people run their own instance.

Mastodon has a flagship instance for normies before mozilla. Lemmy doesn’t

This feels like a strawman. It’s one thing to use some apple because you must but another to embrace it to the point of using their facial thing as your profile picture (which could be construed as indirectly endorsing it).
