GlenRambo , to fediverse in What the fediverse needs is....CIRCLES!

I like the idea. In regards to lemmy and its instances (so I guess a smaller Scale to what your suggesting … Though I still don’t fully get the fediverse).

I did something similar when picking a Lemmy instance. What was the instance that had defederated others the least. There was a git page somewhere that listed them all.

On the flip side I’ve heard a notion that no one single instance should become the “main” instance. Probably with your suggestion new users would gravitate to the big circle. Thus making it the “default”. But maybe it’s different when looking outside of lemmy instances to the wider fediverse.

Lost_My_Mind OP ,

I see things differently. I think there should be a few general use instances. The general use instances I think should be the “main” instances.

Then there should be specialty instances. Like a star trek instance, with several communities, each covering a different topic.

Or a baseball instance, with several instances, one for each team.

Or a H Jon Benjamin instance, with several communities, one for each project he’s worked on. Maybe even have some peertube videos on stuff he’s done.

Each general use instance, I can’t imagine needing more than 10 of those would have a large amount of people.

Each specific subject instance would have lower population. But thats ok, because their main role isn’t to host users. It’s to host content. Whereas the general instances would mostly hoat content and be a link aggregator.

Of coarse…none of that is how it’s being applied so far. Right now it’s an unorganized mess.

Why on earth does the YouTube splash screen on mobile sometimes randomly turn white??? At 2am??

I think you need to be at least somewhat technical

lud ,

You don’t have to have a technical background though. Anyone from any background could learn it if they wanted too. A technical background obviously helps though.

darius , to linux in "Deploying" images rather than installing from the official ISO?

I have the exact same workflow except I have two images: one for legacy/MBR and another for EFI/GPT – once I read your post I was glad to see I’m not alone haha!

This is a bigger problem

fross , to showerthoughts in Jesus could have been an antique meme à la Chuck Norris that got waaaay out of hand

We know that this is from a series of texts that built on each other - many “facts” and feats attributed to Jesus were earlier attributed to Mithras and others.

The same “miracles” and other stuff get reused and applied to new prophets or supposed gods as they roll in.

LordCrom , to fediverse in Comparison of platforms compatible with Lemmy+Mastodon ? (Mbin, Piefed, FediLab, etc.)

Can we just bring back IRC?

pop ,

LordCrom ,

Bring back what? It’s still around. I use Matrix channels for some topics that are bridged from IRC.

Asclepiaz , to lemmyshitpost in Could an American please prove me wrong?

I think I can name two countries pictured on that map.

WhiskyTangoFoxtrot ,

I’d name them “George” and “Fluffy”.

CeruleanRuin , to asklemmy in What's some really unpopular opinion you have?

Nobody should own dogs. They were bred as slave animals in a time before we understood that they were just as sentient as any other being, with pain receptors and emotions just as real as our own. And we have bred them to be miserable when we are not there giving them attention. Their apparent affection is an illusion, a food-gathering instinct honed by countless generations of selective and cruel in-breeding directed by humans who want to pretend that these animals actually love them, when they’re really just pretending because they are rewarded for it.

Also, if you own a dog and let it bark for any length of time, ever, or let it wander unrestrained where it might bite or harass a stranger, or let it take shits and don’t immediately clean that up, you deserve to be put in a cage.

Penta , to lemmyshitpost in shit happened

Please put an NSFW tag on this. I was on the train and when I read this I had to start furiously masturbating. Everyone else gave me strange looks and were saying things like “what the fuck” and “call the police”. I dropped my phone and everyone around me saw this post. Now there is a whole train of men masturbating together at this post. This is your fault, you could have prevented this if you had just tagged this post NSFW.

TriflingToad , to lemmyshitpost in shit happened

is it possible for mods to NSFW someone elses post
