I agree with this, but I think many subscribers are from accounts that are no longer active.

I appreciate all you admins here, I really do. Far more transparent than from Reddit and you do it all without making profit.
The pinned post to Lemmy World sounded like (to me) that you recognize a lot of people signed up, made communities, and then have abandoned Lemmy leaving a lot of ghost communities that you all want to clean up. Totally understandable, especially with all the legal considerations about leaving online spaces unmoderated.
It just got me thinking about how Lemmy has changed, and how I really want it to succeed. I can try and follow this suggestion, but I almost feel like for a lot of the more niche interests, Lemmy will sort of just be in a holding mode until Reddit inevitably fumbles the ball again leading to a new migration, this time with a more clear destination.
Yeah I figured go/baduk would be a hard community to start, which is one of the reasons I chose the Chiefs.
But this isn’t just the difficulty of growing a community from a small start, this is seeing a community grow then shrink. Going through many niche communities the post rate and comment rate seems down across the board, outside of the biggest communities on the site. Combatting a shrinking community seems even more difficult than growing from a small start.
It’s a legitimate fantastic movie. Never understood the hate.
Unless you are in a dry climate. Our house is cooled almost entirely off of a swamp cooler (small window unit for the bedroom) and the humidity is never noticeably high.
Gotta live in a desert for that. If not yeah swamp coolers are very limited.
On point 4, the key part that you are missing is that evaporation /takes/ energy. The standard central air works closer to how you are thinking by the evaporator above your furnace taking heat to then be dumped out by the condenser outside. This is necessary because it is a closed system that must continually reuse the refrigerant.
Sweat, and the swamp cooler you have here, are not closed systems and therefore don’t have to “dump” heat. Energy was transferred to the water molecules to cause them to evaporate. As latent heat exists (Google this if you are still confused) the heat energy has been transferred to “evaporation” energy and so the heat can be reduced without breaking any thermal laws.
Basically the water on your skin or in the swamp cooler is like a wall that heat has to break down. The heat can do this, and does get through but has been reduced by the work and is therefore less strong (lower temperature.
There was no subtraction or addition to total energy when you look at the whole process. Heat energy was transferred to kinetic energy to cause the state change of the water.
Central AC has to dump heat to reuse the refrigerant. The swamp cooler doesn’t have to dump heat but needs to be refilled often as the evaporation of water takes matter away from the system.

Bees or ants. They are capable of building infrastructure, listen to command, and hate wasps and I don’t want to side with wasps.
Thank you!!
Yeah but I’m pretty sure we’re the bigger community so it’s now really beehaw that isn’t seeing most posts and comments.
If you are on OGS send me a correspondence game (same username.) I also prefer irl but I have exhausted all of my friends and families patience with Go a long time ago lol
There are dozens of us! Dozens! Life was busy for a few months so I haven’t played much recently so I probably lost 2 ranks as it goes but I always come back to it.
Well maybe by 2030 we’ll be able to play the game.

Is a great starting resource. I also came from playing chess first and most chess enthusiasts do love go once they learn it. Once you play through those instructions your best bet is to play some 9x9 until the rules click and then go up to 13x13 and then 19x19.
There are only three rules so it’s one of those easy to learn but hard to master things. If you think it’s something you want to learn after going through that link and playing a bit message me and I can play a teaching game with you on online-go.com one teaching game with a person walking through the game usually helps a lot then you’ll be all set to destroy your partner at a game he will hopefully become obsessed with.
Kansas City Chiefs is the community I started here. But I was active on Reddit in that, Kerbal Space Program, Baduk (Go), and space and science communities.
This is what was happening to me. Good to know but yeah very weirdly laid out.
😭😭 Lol more likely I’m not good at generating good content. I was above a lurker on Reddit but not by much. I’m just trying here cuz spez pissed me off.
Yup same here. A bit smaller but all my “core” subreddits have been duplicated here and like many older redditors my favorite subs were already smaller ones. I actually think it’ll last and I’m not going back. Had they just priced out 3PA maybe but I can’t use that platform after what they let spez say. Rich lying assholes can’t keep getting away with it.
Ok what if you made the community and posted in it twice daily and now feel like you are talking to yourself?
The context I was trying to show that growing a community with continuous progress is different than taking a community that is shrinking, stopping the shrinking, and then causing positive growth.
