  • The fediverse is ran by volunteers. Engagement is organic and isn’t trying to sell you something. Everything you see is there because someone thought it was worth sharing

  • Really anything is better than the default UI. The default Lemmy-ui is functional but not elegant.

  • I can’t tell you how to on-boarding process is these days but the UX of using Lemmy via Voyager is even better than using Reddit. In fact Reddit killing Apollo (the app Voyager is based off of) is the whole reason I’m here

  • I believe that in the age of AI many leftists have evolved and many now believe that copyright is now necessary to protect human creativity, expression, and culture from Generative AI. A pragmatic shift rather than a ideological shift

  • On mastodon I follow a lot of hashtags and so I will mute foreign language accounts so they don’t show up in my home feed. Thankfully I’ve never had to block an entire instance but I chalk that up to troublesome instances already being defederated from my instance

  • Sorry, I used to post a lot more on sports communities when I was on Reddit but haven’t really felt the urge to sense moving to Lemmy. It didn’t help that the game wasn’t very good last night either. We are here. I’m pretty active on the fantasy football community. But there is just a handful of us playing there. Feel free to join us at !fantasyfootball@lemmy.world. I’m going to start our offseason mega thread now that the superbowl is done

  • Thank you, I couldn’t remember the latest community address when typing out my reply

  • It’s hard to figure out why some communities show up and others don’t on the search. It’s definitely a good idea to subscribe to !newcommunities@lemmy.world and other communities like it to make sure you don’t miss them when they come up. I think someone was working on a better search for Lemmy but it seems to be abandoned

  • How is that different to my life right now?

  • I’m the same way. I’ll have a few drinks but never to excess. Not to pass judgement on those who choose to enjoy without inhibition but I just don’t find enjoyment in not having my wits about me.

  • We did have a Luka to the Lakers over on !nba@lemmy.world

    Just saying.

    I’m exclusively on the fediverse, I don’t feel disconnected from pop culture at all. There is a lot of politics and meta discussion, I’ll give you that

  • The iPhone 13 mini is the perfect iPhone in my opinion. I just replaced the battery in mine and am ready to use it another 3 years

  • Haven’t tried self hosting Pixelfed. Just mostly been trying it out on the main instance. I’m really shocked that it’s a mess to deploy with docker if it’s on PHP/Laravel.

    I hate PHP these days for dev purposes but I think laravel ought to be able to scale enough to run most Pixelfed instances. Facebook ran PHP when it was much larger than Pixelfed.

  • She’s a hydro homie 💦💦😮‍💨

  • I pay for a YouTube premium family plan. It’s probably a rip off but my kids enjoy content on YouTube more than any other platform but YouTube is not safe for children with ads enabled (and YouTube kids is a joke)

    Soggy cereal made a video about how YouTube ads are unsafe a few weeks ago and that was exactly my experience before I started paying for yt premium, look that up if you are curious

  • The Pixelfed app isn’t very good right now compared to instagram was when it wasn’t terrible. Hope that Dan hires an actual UX designer to update the app with his kickstarter money. And that he can integrate loops with it as well.

  • Instance admins have to take on the responsibility and liability of running a website, I don’t think most would also want to leave it unmoderated as well. For the most part if you aren’t on beehaw, hexbear, or ml/grad. Most instances are fairly “free speech” according to your definition. I don’t think I’ve ever had a comment removed.

    If you still don’t think that lemm.ee or .world is “free speech” enough for you, you are free to host your own unmoderated instance. Don’t expect anyone to federate with you though if your free speech is hateful or inflammatory though.

  • I appreciate you taking time out to write that. I enjoyed reading it, I think what the parent comment was trying to offer as criticism is that it ended sort of abruptly. I was hoping for a couple more paragraphs on either examples of modern sites or platforms that don’t overly rely on js or a way for end users to use these sites loading only the bare minimum js.

    I could just google that information but I was enjoying your point of view. Anyway that’s just my 2 cents

  • He would wish that he did. He hates his kids
