This has to be either the best response in the thread or on the podium at least. Fresh Christ of Bel Air that is disgusting to think about
A shitty old Saturn
I've heard murmurs of how gnarly paper mills smell, but how would you describe it personally? Paper doesn't intuitively seem like something that would smell like shit
I am surprised you cleaned it out instead of like, burning it to ash with thermite
Reddit was the bandaid that let people actually find anything on search engines and now it's getting gutted for the same reason search engines were. I think the fediverse's complete aversion to advertising and business in general is going to be what insulates them from whatever the hell is happening to commercial social media
I'd left a thermos of ramen in my locker for an entire school year in middle school. First year of me having depression lmao
It smelled like if you concentrated the juice in a dumpster. Absolutely satanic sensation
The subs for games like Street Fighter, the sub for fight sticks, the kind of semi-niche gaming communities that snowballed because of Reddit's ubiquity
I agree in theory, lemmy becoming a capable scroll-when-bored service in general is gonna be the thing that increases the user base and retention. But hosting videos is dummy expensive and the fediverse is idealogically opposed to the advertising that would pay for that.
Offloading videos to YouTube or something similar and embedding them would be just fine for me, I like the idea of videos being on YouTube instead of being kind of orphaned in that liminal, unsearchable twilight zone of Social Media Video Hosting anyway
To make myself clear I'd rather be confused about lemmy servers than ever, ever use Discord as a wiki
I'm normier than the listed demographics and find the Fediverse and it's associated jargon to be inline with 4 dimensional crochet in terms of ease of use
I'm kind of expecting Threads to be stillborn but that might just be the post Google Plus in me
From what I understand I can subscribe and engage with just about any compatible fediverse website thing in a sort of generic reddit/Twitter environment, right? I don't think I really have to make this choice, just kind of poke around and curate my home page while the app developers work on ease of use and the fediverse itself works on communication and tutorials for people like me (people who fall up stairs)
Edit: I am transitioning away from reddit the vibe sucks and the ads are a joke
