I remember being a small child posting to forums I had no business posting to, asking obnoxious questions about building websites or talking in IRC.

I remember always expecting a response that wasn’t very happy with me. You have to start somewhere right?

Nope and never did.

This is awesome. Choice is always king! Competition means better products. This is going to be fun.

Yeah, I definitely agree that open communities was/is a mistake. If a server is that large, it should be admin only. They can always run polls to gauge interest before making new communities.

Communities are the biggest problem. One solution would be to make community names more like a federation signature that only allows one community to have that exact name. Example: if lemmy.world has a community called !AITA, and you try to make a community on beehaw with the same !AITA name, it would not allow it and say “sorry that community name has already been registered by another instance”.

Of course, the major issue with this idea is that one could defederate with lemmy.world, in this example, and make the community name anyway, then refederate. Who would keep the name? That’s why I don’t think this solution is ideal, but it’s fun to share ideas and something to think about.

Why wait? Can’t you just deploy now and upgrade when .18 hits?

Ha! Love it when people post troubleshooting in real time. I have both undetermined and english selected, so I don’t think that’s it.

I’ve seen you pop up twice now in the verse and I had to stop and tell you your username is awesome!!

Hi from the west coast best coast!

I used to occasionally watch reruns on Fox when I was a kid, but I never have taken the time to watch it fully like this. It’s fun trying to predict what year the episodes came out by the pop culture references :)

Right now, I think Season 4 came out in 1994. Haven’t looked it up and won’t until I finish watching the season.

I just watched Mr. Plow!!! Loved the story between Homer and Barney and found it hilarious that Marge wanted Homer to keep the jacket on in bed

Thoughts so far? :)

Happy to say I haven’t come across them yet

Are you talking about, subscribing? Subscribe to all of the communities you want and then sort by subscribed on your home page. If you want to folow a community that isn’t on your instance, copy and paste the link to that community in your instance’s search box and subscribe to it from there.

I’m totally with you. I feel as lemmy develops, we’ll start to get more QoL. I’ve been having the same issue with not being able to post comments on random posts, and I have my own self hosted instance. I think it has something to do with the instance the content is hosted on being overloaded? Not sure how the backend works, truly.

What would also be kinda neat, is if I could eventually transfer my instance over to a kbin instance. I quite like the idea of being able to track my thoughts and experiences via microblogging, and I’m not sure if I want to have a seperate mastodon account for that.

Homer’s Triple Bypass. Got it. I’m making a list of episodes to pay extra attention to, as recommended by ya’all here on lemmy. Great recommendations so far.

haha I’m gonna have to remember this one when I get to season 8. Thanks for sharing!!

I’m all for this bit. How dare they misconstrue the vast complexities of a xylophone?

Very well written! Was easy to follow and love the order the events were told. Great job including quotes at the end there too. Makes me wonder why Ruud isn’t joining in on the conversation…

Feels like thats what a lot of people are experiencing right now. Super fun stuff!

Tbh I haven’t watched much either. I just hopped on Disney+ this morning, hit play on the first episode available, and I haven’t turned it off since. I like that this show has a lot of heart and family values, something I don’t really see in TV today without being completely on the nose.

Mine was good! Spent the week working my first few shifts with my new raise in effect. Felt good to be doing the same job but making more money! This weekend I was pulling my hair out trying to get my Lemmy instance set up but I got it done and have been spending my Sunday enjoying it! Overall, pretty successful week. Can’t wait for my next paycheck.

I used to enjoy a smooth vodka lemonade, but more recently, I’ve just been enjoying either a Corona Extra or Blue Moon beer. I find that with hard liquor I just always wake up sick no matter how little I drink.
