  • It's interesting cuz about half the comments were like ppl making fun of me or whatever, and about half made relevant comments. Moreover, I got a lot of down votes, and I thought the post was quite anodyne.

    One comment illustrated to me that I have been perhaps using a flawed mental model for what the www is for around 30 years.

  • Thank you for responding.

    I had never thought of this before, but it's like that Borges story (and Charlie Kaufman movie) where a guy realizes the only literal map of the empire has to be the size of the empire.

    That's interesting, as it suggests the www is an abstraction of itself. All along, I have envisioned it with a model that simply isn't accurate, and I just never noticed.

    Thank you for taking the time to respond nevertheless. BTW, the tautology you called out was an accident I alllllmost went back to fix.

    Dang I just noticed I got a lot of down votes on this post! Tough crowd!

    My point (if it can be found) stands -- the www is a publishing platform, but in its early days, the notion was that it was an archive, whereas the prevailing usage is much more fleeting. Of course, as you mentioned, there is no singular usage pattern, as everyone has an individual mental model for it.

  • Photography community for the fediverse. Where should I create it?

  • Thank you for your response.

    And riiiiight -- admin vs mod. I get it, I get it. But now I have new questions! Which features on Lemmy are the most useful ones that Reddit doesn't have?

  • I believe that 100℅. I bet you're knowledgeable about this tho: I am using an app called Voyager. It appears to show me posts from different servers(?). What is a useful mental model for conceptualizing this?

    Also, as a site admin(?), what is a tool that would be useful for you? Similarly, what is a tool that you think would bring more users to the site?

    Thank you in advance. I really like the concept of the Fediverse, but I get the sense its usability is fairly rudimentary.

  • I think this idea of contradiction for its own sake is misguided and has contributed to copious enshittification, particularly on the www.

    Obviously, "incestuous amplification" is similarly undesirable, but I'm personally opposed to the notion that a poorly informed counterpoint warrants the same audience as a well-informed point.

  • How are you getting free from tech bro influence?

    Jump

  • Well, fingers crossed.

    These companies keep getting passed around cuz companies want to extract value however they can. But like what do people even want money for? Like OK ppl have to pay for food, sure -- you need food to stay alive. Health insurance is up there, too. And then I'm sure housing costs and car insurance costs are essentially unavoidable for most people. So that's probably ~2k a month... So what all are people buying?

    (To be explicit, I ask half-rhetorically -- I'm kinda just wondering aloud, not like OMG TELL ME)

  • Touching grass is huge. I think of the end of "The Truman Show" often. All these folks are at home watching it on TV. Then, he busts out, and it goes off the air. This guy says to his wife (or something... Maybe she says it), "What else is on?* I feel like we're roughly there. All these folks are like angry and/or bigoted, etc. But it's all a fire some company is fanning for money.
