Honestly? It feels a bit mid for me. I keep reflexively opening the app, and there’s still a lot of smaller communities I peek at. I try to keep time-burning scrolling here, but it doesn’t feel the same.

I’m afraid of seeing season 2 of Altered Carbon cause the first one was so awesome

I also wonder/hope if specialized Lemmy apps can paper over friction issues like these. For example i know that RedReader prefers viewing the cache of pages if recent

That’s a crow right? Or maybe a raven? I love them and I haven’t stuck to my new years resolution to befriend them with peanuts

That’s in insane amount of users and so glad they’ve picked an instance that will eventually refederate

What’s 3PA?

I was so worried that your story was going to go shittymorph

we did it reddit

I think it might be too noisy

It may not be forever, and this reddit pause will hopefully be the kickstart for the fediverse of reddit-likes :)

Afaik kbin.social’s DDOS protection through cloudflare is messing with federation. I don’t believe it will be permanent but I don’t have a source on that.

I’m hoping that most third party apps will adapt to lemmy, providing a friction in our favor.

I get really annoyed about the acrid pushback because of Lemmy’s creators, and I usually deflect to unaffiliated server hosts or if it’s really strong, mention kbin since we all connect freely.

It’s just so important to me that the migration goes to a federated platform and not another central one.

I want the more the merrier as long as we can moderate the more toxic tendencies, but at this moment I’m also pleased that much of the folks and vibes are much like reddit when i first joined

Here’s hoping that the Lemmy API proxy can expedite a transition to allow these apps to stay useful after June 30th. It would be a beautiful sight to have diversity of clients here, and especially supporting the fediverse answer to Reddit instead of the centralized competition.

I would even be happy to see kbin growth because we on Lemmy don’t lose out 😅

The even better experience is seeing people try out federated versions of what they love, re-decentralizing the internet 🥰

I’m sitting in this cafe and pumped up kicks is like an auditory Einstein/Marilyn Monroe where out of focus it’s just a bright and chill song but in focus is so grotesque

I’ll start: my personally favorite sci fi that that I wish more people knew about is Orphan Black. It features Tatiana Maslany really showing off her acting prowess. Basically, she plays a street rat who encounters an identical but well off version of herself who jumps in front of a train. In discovering this apparent twin’s life, she realizes there’s yet more of her and that they’re being killed off.

The cast, both Tatiana and not-Tatiana, are really good at embodying their characters and the world is neat at showing something that could actually be happening under our noses this second.

Edit: here’s a low spoiler example

I’ve said before, there’s a preference for filtering of normies from primarily Mastodon servers that i don’t see on other fediverse servers like Lemmy and i hope that means we’ll be able to effectively capture the Digg moment.

It would be amazing to see a pro-user regression from the progressing venture capitalist changes to Reddit

I subscribe to r/tech and r/technology but it would be nice for there to be multi server communities. Matrix found a way to do it
