A very good take on the pros and cons of this kind of thing.

Personally as someone with an account on Beehaw I don’t think I’ll mind mostly. I’ve been pretty happy with the communities they have already made and been quite impressed with content amounts.

Let’s be honest, this federated forum/link-aggregator is in its infancy. Rexxit brought it into the lime light and just kind of put a magnifying glass on these sorts of growing pains.

I’d like to point out that most of the criticism I’ve seen has come from outside the community. I don’t feel like this will be a long term thing only. It’s really an attempt at trying to preserve the community brand and feeling for its members especially while things are still young.

I still can’t believe how much of an idiot Elon has been managing this. How many drugs was he on when he submitted the bid.

and drunk!

Ah fuck yeah let’s go

See how far you can go before it says it can’t provide further detail without violating the content policy

Did you post this from Mastodon? I wish I could tell where this came from.

Basically if I understand this right, if you have an instance with a very popular community on it. It is likely that it will need some massive infrastructure scaling if it wants to handle the enormous amount of world wide traffic?

You should discuss it with your own instance admins.

The best solution is de-federating their connection to that instance but it is done for everyone on an instance so it’s not a small decision.

This is just so far as I understand, I may be very wrong on how this works.

Me, dumber than a doorknob:

Is that a challenge

I don’t think that’s a hugely surprising find. A couple of those south east Asia countries really rival the Middle East in how stuck in the Middle Ages they are with regard to women’s (let alone LGBTQ) rights.

-20 social credit.

Damn wait, we are going to need a similar joke as the r/Pyongyang sub somehow. I’ll have to think on how that translates to Lemmy.

Ah thank you for helping this uncultured American understand.

Meta verse was the corporate wet dream of taking all of Web 2.0 and making it under an umbrella of just one company. That’s why Suckhercock was pushing calling it Web 3.0 in the first place was to try and get ahead on branding and pretend like he had the next best thing. Billions later and there’s still nothing to show for it other than an even shittier Roblox clone.

I think Lemmy is going to slowly grow, but the Reddit migration was the shot in the arm for it to hit a critical enough mass that it can now grow the user base by more than a handful a month like it sounds like it was doing previously.

What is an MEP?

“They should apologize to me!!!” lmao

Known issue! These are growing pains for the software

There’s just some games you don’t play with those you love.

I’m doing my part!

Yeah I’m going to follow Christian to his next project as well. I could see him making a super polished Lemmy or Kbin app. That I would love to pay for.
