Here is what to do, use a script to delete everything from the sub and then delete the sub. If thry dont care about you, dont let them take yoyr sub and contiue making money.
I do think the question of who owns community content is nuanced. I put this comment here, you might say that means I own it and should be able to withdraw it - but it also doesn’t mean much of anything by itself, it needs your content to make sense. So who owns the discourse we are having? Me or you? Or whoever runs the server it is stored on - who must have some legal right to reproduce our content in order to provide the community space? Or the community as a whole? The combined content on Reddit represents an incredibly valuable store of information and learning - who does that belong to? Who should get to benefit from it?
Yeah, good advice for sure. I did in both bathrooms when we first moved in. I have a list of things I do for every new place I move into. Most of it should be done by the owner, but I know from experience, most don’t care or think of it.
I would imagine that we would’ve reached our limit on visual technology. The next step would be to integrate our other senses, like a haptic vest to feel the action in movies or something like that.
Good to see, but as with all posts like this, it’s important to note that the really important number is “Active Users” That number has gone up significantly as well, just not as fast as number of accounts.
From the docs: “Lemmy also shows counts of active users for your site, and its communities. These are counted within the last day, week, month, and half year, and are cached on starting up lemmy, and every hour.
An active user is someone who has posted or commented on our instance or community within the last given time frame. For site counts, only local users are counted. For community counts, federated users are included.”
I don’t know how to phrase this, but Reddit was getting filled with… Normal people? Nongeeks? The socially adept?
I’m sooo glad to be back with silly peeps. I missed that sense of critical self awareness haha. And I’ve been able to express some controversial opinions without getting locked and banned, which is mellowing as fuck.
I believe reddit was simply filled with all kinds of people. There is an array of subs to choose from with different interests and activity levels. I find it silly that people on reddit consider themselves “non-normal” and “geeky”. I don’t think you’re that special.
Good time to appreciate the lack of dominant centrality here compared to mastodon.
Mastodon’s flagship instance run by the BDFL, mastodon.social, has ~10 times the monthly active users of the next biggest instance.
Here, there isn’t really a flagship instance, as the devs don’t want their instance to be anything more than the one they happen to run, and it’s not the biggest, and the biggest is independent of the lemmy dev team and isn’t even that much bigger than the others.
That might also be a response to what users were asking for. Signing up for a server confused the shit out of everyone. It was to the point where Mastodon’s confusing onboarding process was frequently being covered by major media outlets across the globe.
Instead of continuing to iterate on sever selection experience, they just started to say “fuck it” and started dumping everyone into .social.
Which is the only way they’re ever going to work. It’s a major barrier to sign ups. If the fediverse is actually going to take off one of the Lemmy sites will have to become the dominant one
If the tools for discovering and subscribing to communities could be improved so it becomes dead easy to subscribe to communities on any instance from any instance, that might not need to happen.
Right now the process of having to search for each community and subscribe is too clunky. And if someone posts a link to another community it often comes up in a format that takes you to the other instance, where you have no account so can’t subscribe. We need a way to share links to other communities that incorporates an easy “subscribe” button that talks to your own instance.
It would be nice to have some index or search result page that lists communities on all instances, with a subscribe button next to each.
If these things can be smoothed out, it won’t matter too much which instance you have your account on, so that will be less of an obstacle to new users.
Also, you have to be 18+ for getting a contraception appointment. I guess teens in the US are also having sex like teens in other parts of the world and would very much need access to contraceptives, right?
Nobody de-federated. People saw that there was a the_Donald community on sh.itjust.works + a lot of people from said server defending it (“just ignore it bro”). That triggered probably bad memories ala spez defending t_D because of “VaLuABlE DiSCuSsIoN”, while they brigaded and harrased countless people during their time on Reddit. Some people got a little bit carried away and demanded de-federation and a couple of trolls throw gazoline in the fire.
This is one of the personal fears I have about society’s where ‘the mob’ decides. Most people haven’t had their fate decided by a mob before and so might not know what this means or how it pans out most of the time.
I believe it is imperative that we have something in place to avoid mob actions - not a central authority per say but possibly a collective code we all believe in and abide by. We could perhaps establish what is (un)acceptable on a fediversal (universal) scale and what is (un)acceptable on a local instances (instances decide this themselves obv.)
In the future we might need Lemmy/ActivityPub to be able to define posts/accounts/communities that are accessible across the Fediverse and those that are only accessible to users of that instance.
Hence we wouldn’t have the problem where for instance: members of one instance think pictures of furries is not NSFW content but members from other instances think it is
A few people already keyed in on this but just to make it abundantly clear:
“Peasant food”.
So that means:
Whatever meat/protein and veg is on sale. Don’t neglect the frozen food aisle. Most (all?) of that is flash frozen and, honestly, fresher than if you were to buy it in the produce section. Some veg handles this better than other (frozen spinach makes me vomit, Frozen peas are amazing) but it is cheap and nutritious
Something cheap as filler (I grew up with rice so I eat a lot of rice)
Whatever spice is cheap. You can never go wrong with buying the big bag of mexican seasoning at the supermarket. Usually cheap because “mexican” and usually has a good blend that comes in a range of spice levels. Just taste it to get a feel for how much salt is in there so you can add salt accordingly while cooking.
Cook the filler as you would. Oven or pan the protein. Season generously.
Cooking shows/youtube make us think this is a lot more complicated than it really is. But if you learn a few basic cooking techniques (“stir fry” is love, “stir fry” is life) then you are basically set and can be That Guy who stands in the aisle at the supermarket figuring out what he is making next week based on what is available.
