Remember when ads were short and easy to skip? They're just getting more annoying now.

I could bear them back then, but now I can tell immediately if I accidentally use the mobile app on my phone vs my phone's web browser.

This is already possible on a per-server basis. Beehaw already does this.

It would be interesting to make it a per-community feature though.

I'm pretty new here. I'd say the concept is the same in the sense that they are each their own community run by their own moderators. However, the all powerful Admins are those in control of the instance.

One interesting example is that Beehaw has started making "Bee themed" community icons which makes it easy to tell when you're looking at one of the communities hosted on their instance.

Someone on Lemmy.world could have another community with the exact same name, you just have to pay attention to the end (and having themed icons also helps).

But it goes even a little farther than that. We can end up with Mastadon (twitter equivalent) users who are also able to comment in these communities. I don't think its working in reverse yet (at least not for Lemmy.ml accounts).

I wouldn't delete your account (in case Reddit tries to replace the deleted comments as they have been doing). But I would unsubscribe from every subreddit.

Additionally, if you have any very useful comments/posts, repost them to Lemmy and then edit them to leave some information that will redirect users to your posts in Lemmy. That way good information isn't lost and you'll help to slowly drive users towards Lemmy over time.

Wasn't there also some drama recently over Twitch trying to take away/banning sponsorships from the streamers?

I think users have also been uploading massive files of white noise to Reddit... Louis Rossmann spoke about this during a recent video:

Personally I prefer soymilk and almond milk for cereal, but I'll stick to regular milk products for most sauces/cooking.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but once an instance has been defederated with another, you will not be able to see posts from users associated with that instance, even if they post into a community that you are federated with.

Reddits privacy policy itself states that you can use GDPR or California's CCPA and has instructions for invoking it (basically just sending them an email). https://www.reddit.com/policies/privacy-policy

Now when you defederate, this results in content to be no longer shared. It didn’t reverse any previous sharing or posts, it just stops the information from flowing with the selected instance. This only impacts the site’s that are called out.

I thought I'd heard that
