  • Similar to Mastodon, the different instances can represent single individuals, a small group of friends, a shared common interest, or host anything. It allows a “local” feed but can also connect to any part of the federated network. An instance might even choose to not broadcast to the larger federation at all.

    These instances also spread out the workload of any single server by decentralizing the network, which allows Lemmy to grow without falling into a capitalist growth method.














  • I greatly benefit from being hard of hearing and a wife that understands that we don’t both have to suffer. For both of our kids, she’s let me sleep without my hearing aids (and thus, not waking up with every little sound). As they get older, I’m solely responsible for them at night (she wakes me, and I go take care of them), but I still benefit from true silence at night, and only woken when it’s important.

    The other, unspoken, part of my question is the fact that our lives are busy AF, and our time is absurdly limited. My free time ends up being chores, or doing things that I’ve either neglected or that have piled up in the interim (so many things to do around the house, both fun and not)… it’s so rare to find time to do nothing
