Just got two Powerball tix for tonight, thanks! Since one ticket is 50%, two should basically guarantee I win!

Gonna go kick my boss in the balls and walk out, should be fine, right? Probably.

Worth what? There’s no cost, upgrade if your phone supports it.

It’s not like Lemmy had one shot and missed it. Reddit is almost 20 years old, your favorite communities probably weren’t poppin overnight. Lemmy is growing in daily posts and comments, give it time.

Don’t be too hard on yourself, BallShaped. It’ll be alright.

Dark Knight Rises was when I decided to start avoiding trailers as best as I can. They showed the best part of the opening scene, with the plane dragging the hull of the other plane through the air..

I remember sitting in the theater that whole scene pretty much knowing what was gonna happen. And when it did, instead of being blown away like anybody should be, I had basically no reaction.

Nuclear is carbon-free, I don’t see any problem with this. Solar and wind are not the answer to every problem, I think nuclear is part of a smart and efficient energy future.

I’m using the Test Flight beta app, curious on others’ overall experience with the platform so far. I never had an Instagram account so I’m not really sure yet what I even want from it. I’m just excited on all things Fediverse and I’m happy to be part of the growing numbers.

Any tips for content discovery? Seemed like that was the limiting factor off the bat, I like to start new platforms with the equivalent of a trending or all, didn’t seem to have that here.

Happy to take links for your favorite users that deserve a follow!

This research only says that the glasses are probably unhelpful. As far as I know it’s still accepted that blue light is stimulating and can mess with sleep, cause headaches, etc.

I’ve never seen a more succinct comparison of cats and dogs.

I’m hosting my own Lemmy instance and so far everything has been pretty smooth. However I’m noticing some issues with specific instances, communities, or comments not showing up through my own instance.

I had added instances to the allow list initially but I cleared those so that it’s wide open now. I have an account on lemm.ee and I use that periodically to compare feeds, and like I said sometimes a post or comment is missing, actually I often see a comment that looks like it’s responding to a another comment, but I cannot see the parent comment.

Initially I took my admin account and subscribed to all of the most popular communities I could find, but that seems to have left some holes.

Is there a way to force federation with more Lemmy instances?

Thank you for any direction you can provide.

This is not a hot take, people are aware of the dissonance of using Reddit to complain about Reddit. But many folks are still upset but not upset enough to leave, or would like to leave but aren’t ready for places like Lemmy yet. It still needs work and polish before the average Joe will be comfortable here.

So in the meantime I say go for it, having fuck spez be one of the main focal points of the whole canvas is incredible and sends a message. Yea most folks have heard about it by now but might be surprised users are still upset, or never really understood what the big deal was before but maybe they look into it now. Every bit of negative sentiment on Reddit about Reddit will slowly push users away. This is more than a bit of negative sentiment.

Uhhh no? I just checked, it’s in the middle far right, and if you’re looking at the whole things it’s one of the biggest single pieces that jumps out at you.

I’m so proud 🥲

I read something the other day that they’re working on a new sorting algorithm that would limit it to the top few posts from each community within a given time frame. Specifically to address this issue.

No idea on timeframe or further details, or if I even summarized it correctly lol.
