My system would achieve the same, but easier. Because it's easier to post or go to a different post than to go to a different community or create your own community. Also, with tags, you would avoid the problems with having multiple places to post the same topic. Also crossposting (when your post covers multiple topics) would be easier.
I don't see how such a risk would necessarily arise. And if it did, because switching to a different conversation (and moderator) is so easy, you'd just do so.
What stops me from tagging something "Star Trek," and then in the body of the post, pasting a link to some scam site selling dick pills, or creating dozens of bot accounts to do the same with every variation of tag? Nobody can stop me if I'm the only one who can moderate my posts.
You mention that its "easy to switch to another post" but fail to mention how that would work in practice. Currently, you can find a similar post inside a dedicated community easily, but without a community to sort post topics, how are posts displayed? Chronologically? By upvotes? By recent activity?
It sounds like you're just describing a feed like Facebook or Twitter. The former being nearly impossible to find specific posts on. Instead, you either need Groups (same as communities) or to rely on the algorithm. Also imagine either of those sites without moderation.
I think ive been here almost 3 years now and saw another post about this earlier today (asking if there are mod tools to deal with this) and someone said it was "the biggest problem Lemmy faces today," which I found quite odd as vote counts don't even matter here.
How come some 25yo person is a director at Facebook?
This reminds me of my 25-year-old coworker who was laid off recently. I once had to take him to pickup a scuba suit from Enterprise after he'd forgotten it in the trunk, and about a month later, his bicycle from police impound after he'd chained it to some random businesses door one evening and forgot to come back and get it for several days. He'd also go out late every night and then regularly fall asleep at his desk.
He's a great guy but I can't imagine how someone that age becomes director of anything let alone one at a conpany with 75k employees and a market cap of $1.6T.
In Florida its actually a misdemeanor to cover the plate with anything. A guy was recently arrested after being pulled over for this in a rental car that had a license plate frame partially obscuring the first 'S' in "Sunshine State."
I thought certain types of steroids make you red like this along with giving you a swollen belly which goes along with all the anger and irrational behavior exhibited by these fools.
I'd definitely skip this in favor of something consumer-grade. You can find used Dell Optiplexes all over the place cheap and stick a large drive inside/outside of it and use it for a couple of years.
A big old server is just going to drain your wallet on both power and parts with equal or worse performance and a lot more complexity for what 99% of home users will use it for.
It sounds like your main goal is probably a media server and an Optiplex will give you an i5 or i7 with QuickSync which works excellent for processing video. RAID isnt really necessary here because you can just download more Linux ISOs if these one are lost, though it can be great later if you buy a bunch more drives and expand into other areas where data is less replaceable.
Can't say on access behind CG-NAT, as I haven't ever dealt with it, but Tailscale might work as a free third-party option though that's just a guess.
How about this tidbit from the article you linked in the OP? I'm guessing you didn't actually read any of it past the headline because it certainly doesn't say what you seem to think it does. What an intellectually lazy thing to do.
In 2018, the World Health Organization recognized gaming disorder as a mental health condition that intrudes detrimentally into an addicted gamer’s sleep, work, education and ability to foster and maintain relationships in real life, while also impacting memory, attention span and stress management.
SOCIAL MEDIA
Social media addiction hasn’t been officially recognized, Falcione said, “but it’s pretty clear – at least within the literature – that it seems to be transposable to the extent that all the criteria for gaming disorder also apply to a social media or smartphone addiction.”
There are three main criteria, she explained. The first is that the person feels a need to use that media more and more, which can build a tolerance similar to that experienced by drug addicts. Second, she continues, “there’s a salience that it becomes the most prominent thing in your life — it’s what you think about the most, it’s what you want to do the most, and even if you’re not on your phone, you’re thinking about it, craving it and choosing it over other activities that may need your attention.” The third criteria is that its use creates internal conflict or turmoil as it interferes with relationships or obligations to work or school.
“For teens and college students, when you see those grades drop, that’s a big signal that the media use is actually becoming detrimental,” Falcione said.
You mean like OP, who's clearly having a temper tantrum calling people "fucking idiots" and telling them they need to "leave" if they don't agree with them, all the while demanding sources from everyone while providing none of their own other than a single editorial written by a college student?
