Speed has not been the reason to get a manual for a long time.

It still is if you listen to alt country.

Wow. “These people have killed or attempted to kill everyone who came to their island. But maybe if I tell them about Jesus they’ll be friendly!”

Related genres but I wouldn’t say it’s a subgenre. They both evolved from “string music” but took it in very different directions.

Or cheese?

I have accounts on four instances that are all still open for registration. And two did have an approval required but I got it within hours.

Because I’m not a six sigma whatever belt and all those things you listed are things that are just common sense.

It still has one eighth the users of world. World is just absolutely huge compared to the rest.

What do you think the other ones are running on? i386s in someone’s basement?

Not on Reddit or YouTube or anything else that serves ads from the same domain.

Yeah, that was my point.

This isn’t Reddit, there’s no account-wide tracking of special Internet points to worry about.

You can also just browse “subscribed” instead of all.

Views that show you multiple communities would be great. Let me see both major Steam Deck communities in one view.

It makes sense that general purpose instances would have the most users. I’m not a programmer so while I could still register there why would I pick programmer.dev?

The bigger issue I had in picking an instance was just in understanding the differences. I think it would help if instances advertised their stance on defederation, moderation, etc… to help people make a decision (or even to see that lemmy.world may be more similar to some other instances than they might think).

I’m sure I’ve made plenty of mistakes, but I’m happy enough with where my life is now. Red door it is.

I’d assume they have similar sick fantasies about murdering/torturing humans in a similar fashion.

That is a huge leap. Because of the nature of the work, most people I’ve met who work in animal agriculture just don’t see their livestock as conscious in any way, let alone at all equivalent to a human.

Ha, touché. But the difference is that Reddit was already monetized via ads, while Lemmy is not.

This is my biggest problem with it. I have no issue with Sync charging. I have an issue with Sync charging and not passing anything on to the developers of Lemmy.

I think part of it is a discovery problem. Which, I know, I don’t want some algorithm telling me what content to look at, but it’s tough to find all the stuff I’m interested in just by searching.
