Power Bot 'Em was a gem, I will say

Dropout, New Smosh and even most of the video essay YouTubers that are on Nebula would like to have a word with you

Fair point

Every day the call of the high seas gets stronger.

I think a surefire way to help with this would be to have a rule that any instance that becomes the largest one on Lemmy should lock itself instantly. That way, we’ll only surpass the current max number of users on a single instance until it’s completely spread out

Nomadic identity is so cool! That’s the one big thing ATProto has over ActivityHub atm (at least partially0, and hopefully platforms like Piefed will also follow suit on implementing it.

No peaceful end of term, maybe. They might have to find out January 6th doesn’t just come once, and it doesn’t always have to be at the Capitol.

For the last one, another alternative would be “You’re so resilient, it would take a moon sized meteorite to take you down for good.”

I’ve heard people mention Wafrn as a Tumblr alternative, but haven’t checked it out myself.

Heil five!

!sillydrawingrequests@sopuli.xyz is one of my favourites so far

Inb4 they start making tiktoks about ignoring the calming music

Even if it’s just links, taking the time to find them yourself and post them is a useful step, since relevant doesn’t always mean insightful or interesting.

Also, you’re not completely tied to links. Make/ask for recommendations, life pro tips, etc.

This is such a well written piece, it’s closer to a serious article than a blogpost

I was right there as well. I saw creators I trust putting out stuff talking about the state of social media today (Technology Connections on YouTube in particular) and that was around when I started diving back into bluesky, then after a little more reading around, mastodon and lemmy. Never looked back after that.

If only Lemmy were ready for c/antimeme (and the confusingly adjacent c/bonehurtingjuice)

Oh, that’s really cool! Thanks

Considering what brought me here, I’ll take finicky over maliciously designed any day. :)

Ah, I see. Thanks!

I think decades of minimalist, ‘intuitive’ interfaces that abstract what’s going on in the background have made us too lazy to go beyond the bare minimum to switch platforms in general.

A common criticism I saw of the fediverse was the fact that you have to decide on an instance. As if any significant part of your life doesn’t require a certain amount of research before making a decision. We all just buy the car that the dealership tells us to buy, of course.
