Man, when I joined this was a brand new instance with only few users. That wasn't even that long ago.

"Signups: no" can also just mean that your sign-up will be checked manually, like on older instances like beehaw and sopuli
Oh damn, I remember people saying that everybody interested in Lemmy already joined by now. I'm really curious how things will look one week from now
Anyone can host a server that'll talk to the others seamlessly (like Lemmy), but it doesn't talk to Lemmy
astroturfed strawmanned groups such as extinction rebellion
What's wrong with XR?
None of this has anything to do with Mastodon's source code though, I don't know why you keep bringing up open source
Demon core but somehow even cooler (and cancer-inducing)
Moving to a different closed source platform feels pointless at this point, but maybe Lemmy is spoiling me
Last time I saw it, someone said it was fake. Here's a source I found for that: some guy made it up for his self-help book
Okay yeah I thought I remembered her being a woman but somehow everyone here is talking about 'him'
there are reasons why people are or are trying to immigrate here in droves
If you compare yourself to third-world countries you always come out looking good. "America Bad" can definitely get circlejerky though, no denying that
Lemmy is developed using EU funds and many of the biggest instances are in the EU
I remember when Reddit did a new event every April fools, Place #2 definitely felt uninspired
There's plenty of places where you don't need a car so it's not exactly a pipe dream. I've never owned a car, just get everywhere by bike and public transit.
I mean, they are related. There's a common causation (higher temperatures). There's plenty of spurious correlations but this specific example isn't it
I assumed that was about mastodon.social not defederating and Eugene Rochko saying not to worry about Threads
Most people on All don't check what comm a post is from before upvoting. That's why on Reddit all subs that regularly hit r/all are basically the same. I'm fine with the Twitter news here, but upvotes don't work as quality control.
the person did not see the implication of praising/complementing someones genitals that were the problem
Wasn't that the point of the comment? They got asked if they'd date a trans guy and responded that it wouldn't work out because what they're attracted to is exactly what makes the trans guy dysphoric
Edit: the post the comments were under was a bit weird about trans though, I'd be fine with that not existing here
a cesspool disguising as irony
See also: various still-existing places such as PoliticalCompassMemes
Only 4 more days to go for me. It's crazy how much lemmy.world has grown since those early days
This is a great answer, you (or someone else) should make sure the devs see this! Maybe as a Github issue
However sharks have a huge PR issue and Spielberg regrets how Jaws is a big source of that
I can't imagine being that unlucky with your instances, maybe you're running into bugs or the less intuitive parts of Lemmy (like how links to posts and communities don't work how you'd expect them to)
Maybe communities should come with default tags. That would make it a lot easier.
... did you use GPT-4 to write parts of this comment?
Looks vaguely like the Condesce's clothes I guess. Fuchsia+black and a ♓︎ shape.

@db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com noticed the same here: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/87753
When someone shares a personal story about his wife's struggle with cancer and the top reply is "I also choose this guy's dead wife"
I'm terrible with stuff like Discord but I have no issue with forums, somehow
How about the people who stumble across the comm's posts on All but aren't subscribed? On Reddit you could also talk about the original user base from before a sub started hitting r/all but !technology@lemmy.world doesn't really have an 'original' user base.
Several of the niche subs I'm on on Reddit didn't even get one post a day, lol. I guess there's niche and niche
You're about one step away from eugenics lol
Maybe they could even integrate with Mastodon's hashtags
I don't want to get an addon just because people occasionally use Fahrenheit
One for people who view the movie as “their kind of movie” and one for people who don’t.
You can look for specific reviewers who tend to like the same kinds of movies as you, then see what they think. Or, look at the reviews instead of the score. I tend to look at an average review, a positive review and a negative review, to see if I care about any of the bad parts they bring up.
So you can go outside and calm down from therandom internet argument, good call
When you think about it, having volunteer mods on a commercial platform is kind of a weird concept
Many instances have a tech community, I wonder if any of them are like that. !technology@beehaw.org !technology@lemmy.ml !tech@kbin.social !technews@radiation.party
That would be cool, never thought about that. Straight up not allowing voting from All/when you're not subbed could also be interesting as an experiment. But yeah, here plenty of people are just interested in Twitter news.
These aren't mods talking, it's admins. They manage and pay for the server 196 is hosted on, that's a pretty big endeavor
