I was moderating, this whole thing started, and I moved over to lemmy, I don't get why people are still continuing to do loads of work on a site that hates them with an even more toxic environment than before, not really for me.

Yeah, I stayed on the sub I used to moderate, and then when the community didn't want to keep up the protest I left them, I wouldn't really be able to do a good job anyway when the app I used for it when not sitting in front of the PC wouldn't work anymore, so it wouldn't make sense anyway, so rewrote and deleted all my comments, before I did the account itself, and my alt account as well.
They could, if they cared to research that much, which many don't seem to want to do.
No worries :) Just transcribing for fun mostly, and as a substitute for having done it on "transcribers of reddit" for quite a while, and it's nice to be able to help people who may need a transcription :)
Sync is no longer working at all, only error messages, maybe they didn't revoke their keys, that might be a nasty surprise for those devs when they get the bill.
The fragmentation doesn't really matter though, as we can all read and participate in the same threads :)

How likely do you think it is that even with the heavy push anything more than a small percentage of people will switch.
Why do you think the universe needs a beginning, but there are special rules for your god because of?... magic?
You can't delete subs, only set them private, and then reddit just appoint new mods to open it up again.
It's destroying the environment with the way it works, so it's still an extremely shitty thing to promote.
But that's a theory isn't it? I haven't seen any scientific theories to gods how do we know anything about a god, much less what the nature of their being? It's just not based on anything, (therefore my allusions to magic)
I don't enjoy your tone policing.. There are ways to do that without sounding pretentious and holier than though, please keep that in mind for the next time.
I've been using it for 2 years or so, mostly for hobby programming, and I really love it, it's been great for the kinds of things that I do at least :) Feels great and logical to write, and it'more or less works the same way my mind does, the type system is really good think something like Ada, and it can be both a pretty low level, and high level langauge. YMMV, but I really like it personally.
Yeah, I was really disappointed when I read it too.
It's kind of really hard to say if I belive in something or not when you don't offer a definition, I don't believe in anything outside of the brain, consiousness and what makes me me, which could be a definition of soul, I do believe in, but again, that's just a result of my brain braining.
The content is the same, as it federates with lemmy, but the server and the code that runs kbin is completely different, it's written in php while lemmy is written in rust. Kbin also has support for microblogs (like mastodon) so it's not lemmy at all really, but it can talk with it :)
Thank you :) Corrected
Redreader still works, since it's open source, and the dev promised not to make money from it.
Wow, that's a lot of signups !
Poor moderation certinly has something to do with it.
I still find the ai program that infers your age based on your age pretty funny :p and it never really get's it completely.
That would be great yeah :)
It's destroying the environment with the way it works, so it's still an extremely shitty thing to promote.
Yeah, I am really impressed about it, at first I was thinking about what the use of it would be, kind of wouldn't make much of a difference. Then I tried it out, and it just feels like home, it's so much more compact, I really love it, and I've used it for a couple of weeks by now :)
The problem that I see at least is moderation, from what I've seen from screenshots and stuff from over there, there are a lot of bad people over there, and many of us at least joined the fediverse to get away from toxicity and people like that.
I was excited by rust, back when it used sigils instead of box and other keywords, it was an exciting language, I had some fun with it, but it wasn't ready yet, so I went having fun with some of the languages in its family (ocaml, F#) And when I went back to rust some years ago to write a little tool for myself (https://codeberg.org/sotolf/tapet-rust) to try it out, and it was really cumbersome, and ended up rather slow. I really don't like the rust syntax, and yes, that is kind of shallow, but there are so many bad choices, like a ; not being there rather than a return, it just doesn't work for me. Error handling is decent, just that it's syntactically cumbersome unless you use a package like anyerror, there are packages, so many packages, and what you wanted to make that is just a small tool now has 2 Gb + of build artifacts. I later found out about nim, and rewrote the tool in it, and got a more stable faster tool in a 3rd less code (https://codeberg.org/sotolf/tapet-nim) And the way to work in nim just fits me so much better.
The thing about the rust pushing people (They are funnily enough mostly people that haven't really used it for much yet, but went into the hype) is not that they are exited about a language, sure I can get that, it's the way they are pushing it, they talk down about other languages, demand people rewriting things in a language they are exited about, I don't like the slow compilation and the huge stuff. It's just not me. Don't get me wrong I know it's a good language, just too low level for what I (and most people really) need and it getting pushed for places where it's not really suited, I don't really think it's a good thing. There is also this push for cleverness in their libraries and code, and cleverness in code is always a red flag to me. So it's not you rust, it's me.
So the monero web page is lying?
Proof of Work
Monero uses randomx, an ASIC-resistant and CPU-friendly POW algorithm created by Monero community members, designed to make the use of mining-specific hardware unfeasible. Monero previously used CryptoNight and variations of this algorithm. More info in the GitHub repo.
Or are you just lying trying to make a point without having a clue about what you're talking about?
About 6 weeks for a mvp from what I understood, but that was around a week ago, so around 6 weeks
What is the purpose then? To me it just seems like a solution looking for a problem, and that's not a good way to make solutions.
Private? It's in a public ledger right, I think monero does some scrambling, but most crypto is a lot less private than paying in cash.
Yeah, I've been curious about tildes, but I don't know anyone on there, so I can't register to try it :p
I was using python for quite a bit, but don't like how cumbersome their types are, I really fell in love with nim when I was looking for alternatives, it's an underdog, but personally I really like the langauge.
For me it depends on the size, for small stuff like 1000-2000 lines of code that mainly I just work on alone, something like python is okay, if it is something longer, I miss types a lot.
The thing is nim is more than just a typed python, it just works really well, I've had a lot of fun with it the two or so years that I've used it.
But then again, I have a lot of fun testing out different languages, and don't care about marketability, since I'm just programming as a hobby, and not as my profession, right now I'm playing around with picolisp, and it's pretty fun :)
Aww, the hype got to ya... yeah, seeing it again and again, at least don't do like everyone else who are starting to shill for the language without even having tried it. I'm just tired of rust activism, so tired.
maybe, at least it's something to consider :) Now nothing wrong with liking the language if you do though :) just talking about my misgivings with it.
You're right that the theory is not about God, but explains the origins of the universe.
How so? I don't see what you mean here, it doesn't explain anything, it just builds a level of assumptions on top of something, basically explaining something with an untested hypothesis.
what I said about God is what I think is a logical conclusion.
If you Agree to the premises I guess, but I don't, so it explains nothing.
If something has a beginning, then it must have been kickstarted somehow.
Then who kickstarted god? Or does he/she/it for some reason get special treatment here? (This is special pleading)
What kickstarted it is by definition its creator.
If I kick a stone down a hill I did not create the stone even though I set it in motion.
And this applies to our universe, in my opinion.
Hmm, I don't see how you evade an infinite regression here, unless you break your own rules and give one link in the chain an "eternal always existing" modifier. We don't know that anything eternal exist, or even that our universe isn't eternal (extisting eternally as a singularity before spreading or a part of a bigger multiverse that we cannot perceive)
It is merely a statement that they must exist.
It is just assuming that something must exist, since you're building your logic on very shaky premises that we cannot prove.
An effect must have a cause.
Must it? Or have we just never seen the contrary (black swan fallacy) Who caused god? like I said before you can't get away from that without special pleading.
I apologize for sounding pretentious earlier, that was not my intention, but I can see how it came off as such. And apologize for misunderstanding your intentions as well.
Water under the bridge :) No worries :)
Also I notice you have some downvotes. Just want to clarify that it is not me.
No worries, I don't care about the votes, interactions are worth way more than someone clicking an arrow :)
I think they want one that can interact with the whole fediverse, so lemmy, kbin, mastodon, peertube, friendica, hubzilla, pleroma, akkoma, calckkey, misskey etc.

I'm clearly a master of SEO.
When I google for "cold dark place filled with sadness and despair" right now (with the quotes), google gives me exactly one result - my Linux kernel github repository.
I will call my new hobby "Reverse Emo Googlewhacking".
You're welcome.
