  • op asked about the r/linux community which was not mentioned in either of your comments

  • Lemmy.world is the second largest Lemmy instance, and less than a third of all users. If someone doesn't like their rules it is trivial for a person to move to an instance who's ruleset better aligns with their wishes.

  • It's entirely possible in the future, since ActivityPub accounts can be "forwarded". It's a little clunky but look at Mastodon.

  • The fact that this is being upvoted so much I think demonstrates a big misunderstanding of how the fediverse works.

    Nobody owns Lemmy and if a instance does something shitty it costs hardly anything to change instances. Nobody owns the lemmy software, and other softwares like mbin/piefed exist too with the same content.

  • There is only one Twitter whereas anyone can start "a Lemmy" (instance). I am using a different instance than you, for example. So if mine enshittifies I can go somewhere else and still have access to the broader network.

  • It would be weird if a Lemmy instance tried to make itself addictive. Like congrats your users request way more content and it costs 10x more to operate now yay

  • +1 for Fedora. I recommend Kinoite as it is very similar to windows and very hard to break due to it's "immutability".

    Bazzite is very similar to Fedora Kinoite but made to be easy for gaming.

  • I'm having trouble following, you're suggesting that the Linux subreddit continues to exist because of some corporate conspiracy to keep users on commercial media platforms?

  • I love those machines. Diet cherry decaf vanilla etc etc etc....

  • The revised Trill makeup in DS9 made that show literally unwatchable!

    EDIT: In earnest, I do find the hoop-jumping process of trying to find some canon explanations/connections a lot of fun, as long as nobody takes them too seriously (hard mode).

  • Honeypot thread - admins take note

  • 99% of online Tankies promote fascist positions, but pretend to be "left" so as to present as more palatable to left-leaning "normies" dissatisfied with the state of democracy.

  • sick comeback bro that must go over really well in your middle school

  • Yeah you're right, "atomic" is not the same thing as "immutable", but they are related terms and OP appeared to be using them interchangeably so 🤷‍♀️

  • I didn't say bricking, I was responding to the bit you wrote about immutability being "a fad".

    A good thread to mention Lemmy in - a Daily Show segment about social media companies, most of the commenters don't seem to realize that nonprofit social media exists!

    Colm Meaney wanted to play O'Brien as American. “Rick Berman sat me down and said, ‘The whole notion of this show is that it’s multiracial’… I reluctantly started to play him Irish"
