I think it depends on the person. I’m usually fine with it but I know people who would be out of commission for two days after a single Doritos locos taco.

Yeah, I had never understood why people were so upset about Meta joining the fediverse but after reading that I do agree that there is a lot of damage it could cause.

Have you heard of the establishment known as Taco Bell? It should check all of your boxes.

Yeah without knowing anything else about the world, hiding and guarding seem like the best options.

Yeah I agree, Lemmy needs to be it’s own thing and not just a Reddit hate platform. But so far the experience has been great.

Up until now most of my research had said that kbin was basically Lemmy, but different. After some more research and looking through other comments you are definitely correct.

Yeah I agree with the Mastodon suggestion. Lemmy would work but Mastodon probably makes more sense.

I didn’t necessarily think about some of the overhead that your comment brought up when I made mine. I like your idea about opting out of some features on certain instances and I think that makes sense for quite a few users/communities/instance hosters.

I 100% agree! As someone from the US I always disliked that even subs which were supposed to be global would default to being US subs unless the poster specified. I too love the idea of a global community and I think that assuming where someone is from kind of takes away from that.

I mean I could be completely wrong but I think that’s where federation actually comes out on top. Look at Reddit, apparently still not even profitable. However if someone on Lemmy owns an instance and infrastructure costs get too high they can stop new communities and users from joining until they get more money through donations or whatever ways people come up with sourcing income.

Again though, this could all be completely wrong and misled but that’s what I think at least.

Bones are like 15% of our body weight I think so bone loss probably would be effective lmao

I haven’t been on Reddit to see for myself however I believe I heard someone on Lemmy say that /r/conservative was making a big deal about NOT blacking out? I have no context and no clue why I just know I’ve heard people say that.

I’ve been primarily sorting by new. While on other sites I don’t like sorting by new because you’ll see 90% low-quality posts, Lemmy is small and passionate enough that nearly all posts will be good quality.

I think this comment 100% reflects how I feel as well, and I especially agree with your roommate. I’m a decently tech savvy person as well and between learning about federation and overthinking which instance to join it took 20-30 minutes to join Lemmy. I think the people in my life who don’t enjoy stuff like this as much will need me to help set up Lemmy or they won’t join at all.

After a quick google myself, it looks like this is basically it. There wasn’t a whole lot of info but from what I could find our body needs a way to make sure we don’t do something stupid like sleep while standing up or in danger. This means it’s up to our body to let us sleep rather than letting our consciousness decide.

I can’t wait to try out CS:2, however I hope the new improvements don’t come with too much of a performance hit. With no mods and only 1-2 DLCs I’ve had CS:1 chew through RAM and crash like nobody’s business. Still super excited though!

Is there any way to clone account/community data from one instance to another now? Maybe I’m a little confused on how this works but what if an instance decides to shutdown? Are all of the posts/communities/users on it just gone forever?
