It’s a shame we have so many people trying to prevent these changes by demanding that their driving has to come first.

Yes, there was a famous thread on Reddit where somebody was experiencing lots of weird stuff, asked a question like this, and it turned out to be CO poisoning

An instance is like an independent version of Reddit

Each Reddit (instance) has its own set of subreddits (called communities)

Whichever instance you’re on, you can access communities in almost any other instance

So in sum… Just sign up to an instance, subscribe to communities that interest you, and don’t overthink it!

Except the trees would survive just fine without us. It’s not really symbiotic

Much like the case of Reddit, Musk might want to reflect on who actually produces all the content he’s guarding so jealously, and ask himself what’s likely to happen to the value of his site if he makes it difficult for millions of us to write all his content for free

The first couple are widely held to be the least good. I’d suggest jump into the Night Watch set (Guards Guards etc) or the Granny Weatherwax set (Wyrd Sisters etc) - they’re widely held to be good starting points

(Edit: I appear to be fond of the phrase “widely held” today…)

Religious privilege is getting an invite to the meeting where this stuff was decided

Yes, I got ground down by the same same discourse and tropes on post after post. I got especially enraged by “Came here to say this”, which added literally nothing of value to the debate but would usually, somehow, have loads of upvotes

There’s a link to a road.cc article. Perhaps your Lemmy frontend isn’t showing it properly? I can see it on Liftoff

That’s a useful feature, but I think what the other person meant was posts on the front page. A lot of Reddit apps let you permanently/temporarily hide posts that you’d already seen, which was really useful as a way of ‘resetting’ your feed when you’ve already scrolled through it recently

I’m trying them all. As of today, Connect for Lemmy seems to be working the best
