We might have to accept we're on the "losing" side, e.g. Lemmy will never have the numbers our subreddits had. We'll have smaller communities and less content, but hopefully better conversation.

I've been hearing this since 2010. Nothing is going to change.
EA Sports 2024 is going to come out, it's going to have 40,000 mixed reviews.
WE made the content. The community. No doubt the majority of level-headed folk would have accepted ad requirements in 3rd party apps. Hosting isn't free, something needs to be monetized.
But that's not what it's about. It's about locking down content from the new wave of AI models and charging for it. Charging for content we created freely to be shared.
I'm looking for baking, woodworking, and diablo4. Point em out of you know em
Waving a Nazi flag should be a flight to Dachau and experiencing a full 12 months the --exact-- same way it used to be.
Arbeit macht frei.
Ah, in less than 48 hours we've come full circle.
What beautiful dawns await us.
Tbh, it's probably good for multiple devs to go different ways. We don't know which, if any, reddit replacement can take hold. I love rif and the developer behind it, I hope their journey goes well.
I'm in! Unless rif goes to lif, in which case cheers all around :)
Someone literally hacked my account and bot posting for cryptocurrency. I requested account recovery from Twitter and it all just went to hell after that. The process was bizarre. Repeated instructions for steps I already finished, the entire process starting from scratch, no replies.
So my account is out there now, doing who knows what. Congrats, it's a bot.
Let go of that thought. Reddit is (probably) here to stay. Lemmy will have less users, less communities, and tbh, probably less quality content. That's okay. Grow your seeds.
I remember when I was hanging out with some of the gays (I keep them as friends to keep up appearances). Before, I was always the alpha. I could swing by any bar and leave with the hottest lib in my F150. By the end of the night she'd be screaming for her daddy and fully supportive of Trump. I loved converting libs to MAGA-wearing breeders.
But then I hung around the gays, and something inside of me just fundamentally flipped: I love penis inexplicably and wearing the latest Hillary 2024 fair-trade organic cotton shirts I got for volunteering. I've never seen such a marvelous transformation!
Across the Spiderverse for $7 is money well, well spent.
I always wanted a Tesla. I'm now in a position I could buy one comfortably, but now I have a spine and won't.
This is phenomenal for a month or two worth of work. There are some dummy skilled engineers out there that got pissed off and acted on their anger - I love it.
I think it's because when it is illegal it's ultra illegal and ultra terrible. Even then I question how much of it is already pretty sus.
I graduated at 27 and got an internship in SF. Life changed.
To be fair, platforms like this will originate in that shape for the significant future. Reddit did as well. I'm not white, but work as a software engineer.
Anyone that bothers you based on your hardware is an actual 🤡
The flux of users is probably more than what the servers can handle. It will take time to smooth it out.
It's pretty bad. Given time and the open source nature of it, multiple view clients should arrive in short order. Have you checked out https://wefwef.app/ ? It's a web app (so can be loaded into any browser, mobile or desktop), and it's attempting to emulate Apollo I think.
Steam Decking fallout 3 atm, with D4 occasionally spaced in. Next is n ew Vegas and fo4.
To be fair, 2 of those games are legit some of the GOATs. I've been gaming since my mom played Mario with me in the early 90s, and those two games are something else.
I remember buying the Minecraft alpha for $10, and there wasn't that much to do, but it was strangely addicting.

I'm gonna hold that is was immensely more fun around A10-12, but to be fair I haven't tried the latest release.
I'm having issue figuring out how it works interacting from one side to other. I know lemmy.world can interact with mastodon instance via whatever activity pubsub thing they have, but for instance, can I log into the mastodon app with my lemmyworld account? I know I can post there somehow, but all the web mentions of it are like, pasting the url links in proper order like I'm in the pre-dial-up age or something.
A much more cohesive unification is needed.
Thinking about a steam deck just for Diablo 4. I'd pick up fallout 4 and borderlands 3 / Tina and possibly elden ring / sekiro too. Any thoughts?
Patriot moment
Or, for the time being, this platform never takes off and reddit's moat temporarily prevails. Eventually Reddit will die, but no one can predict when.

The great thing is, now you're 100% empowered to move forward and host the responsibility yourself. Demanding volunteers shoulder potential liability (when you yourself admit you can't understand how there's any in the first place) is juvenile.
The moment a volunteer is hit with a DMCA notice or any threat of legal action, you think they have any interest in going through the court system? You can do it first.
