Because duplicate. That’s how I see it. Didn’t even want to dupe the post, let’s see if this one dupes as well. If yes, then I might post only take comments for… a few minutes.

Y U NO POSTS RAGE NOW?!?

Moderation will probably be done by AI in the future. It’s probably just a bit too expensive still.

Making waves just because you feel it’s your right to do so can work, but it doesn’t have to, and you can’t complain if it doesn’t. Nobody wants to have some narrative forced upon them, regardless the content.

Stick to the politics communities to post about politics, humor for humor, etc.

If that would be wrong, why would we have such things as “communities” (in the Lemmy sense) anyways?

Goddess Terrace Cafe might fit.

Was nationalism ever awesome? From an outside perspective it was quite disturbing and worrying.

Don’t know what you’re comparing us with, but we’re just not that into that whole normative narrative kind of thing.

I’m other words: it’s fine, even if we’d be like that.

They’re monkeys, give em some slack.

We need more instances, not bigger ones. Sync should try to promote smaller ones, or even host their own.

It’s not impossible to ruin, just a lot harder.

My thinking was: Setting up the software and keeping it running when a horde of users storm it (exhausting CPU and IO) are different things. Software (in general) sometimes behaves very strange at scale. I haven’t seen the source of Lemmy, and given that it’s written in Rust makes me feel positive about it, but strange things will(!) happen, and then you need professionals.

Given all their automations, I reckon they could pull it off.

Put up a yearly donation drive (like Wikipedia) but unlike Wikipedia do:

1. a competition between the various instances, on which collects the most donations
2. not shift the page content when displaying the donation banner!

Ideally the donations will be handled through a non-profit org dedicated to this particular purpose. If the donation level is high enough, developers can be hired to further improve the source code. Currently the funds are managed through OpenCollective, but with enough growth this may not be feasible any longer.

This will most likely lead to heated debates as this will build a somewhat centralized organization, which necessarily comes with power concentration.

No game no life, season 2. To be released: apparently never

Raeliana. I’ve read the manhwa and I love the couple. It’s refreshingly different from most of the romance mold.

I’ll wait until it finishes to binge it all in one go. I’ve read the manga anyways, so the content won’t surprise me.

I use it because it’s the best shot we have to build a real alternative to Reddit. It feels a bit like Reddit at 2008 or so.

But I have the feeling that I might just stay for the community.
