agreed. as others have stated. Transparency. But also, new software, new tech (in a way, the fediverse/activity pub), and hopefully a new beginning. Happy to be here. If not technically on the ground level (lemmy has been around for a short time before we knew reddit was going to implode), close to it!
Can’t forget homeworld 3!
Edit: I was late to the party, hw3 got pushed to 2024. So I’ll change my answer to the expense game, which comes in July.
Also, hard agree on star field, and CS2!
Edit2: armored core 6
reported, are the mods actively removing tankie content? I would suppose since it violates the rule.
Sorry, I’m new here. Isn’t Radio Sputnik Russian state media? Which could be considered propaganda, which would break rule 3?
Also, is this some of the “tankie” content that lemmy opponents have been citing? I know this is lemmy.ml and that this may be the type of content they want here, so I hope I’m not offending anyone.
This is what’s beautiful in open source. I wonder if any one has had any luck making the old.Reddit nesting style yet
Open source, so I’m sure someone can. Platform is very young - I suspect that as it gains popularity, more people will contribute to source, and we’ll eventually see more options for customization. Both at the user level and the instance level giving people more reasons to choose other instances over just population of it.
Yup, I feel like a lot of people complaining of too much centralization don’t fully understand how the federation concept works. Even if a single instance goes down, turns evil, ect - all of the content would have already propagated to all the other instances. It’s not ideal, because those instances would loose sync with each other since the initial instance went dark but we wouldn’t loose the content but commenters can still discuss within their own instance.
Again, not ideal - but at least the content would be preserved.
Hmm, I wonder if US users benefit from that? I’m sure they could tell by the IPs where the content was posted. Maybe that’s too much of a hassle though
Can’t say I’m surprised. I’m sure they’ll stop people from deleting their own content off soon too. It’s amazing how short sighted they can be burning the community that gave them the decades of free content that made Reddit popular.
Don’t know how to help but agree on how important search is. Which might be even harder to do given federation.
Also upvote for firefly user name
memmy is another ios (x-platform?) app to try that is apollo’esq, is more stable, and seems to default to using swipe as the primary method of up/down vote and commenting.
certainly, a selection bias in a way I didn’t think about. Unfortuently, that seems to be the majority… for now.
I’ve found found the same in other communities, I was surprised how many people just didn’t care or were actively shilling for Reddit.
Honestly, I brought up the issue in a top 1% subreddit by population and I got downvoted into oblivion. The few that would engage were just like “stfu”, and “lol no” and “I don’t care”
Idk, maybe it should be usage based. I feel like 60/yr is too much. I’d be fine with 19.99/yr but idk what they’re costs are. Otherwise, I do like the idea. Confession, I haven’t used it yet but I plan to signup and try the first 100 searches free.
5/mo is too much I think.
ok, so it’s not just me. Hope it gets resolved soon!
god it’s terrifying and so true. I didn’t realize how addicated I was to apollo until muscle memory just kept clicking the damn app!
how recently were you a mod on reddit? I’ve been trying to raise discussions on various communities that I follow about a possible migration and I’m receiving a lot of indifference from the userbase. However, I feel like the mod userbase feels differently given the widespread blackout (many of these communities joined the blackout but it seems like a lot of their users are unaware or unconcerned with the changes.)
my question is do you think the mods are more sympathetic to migrating platforms?
Same, at the time I made the comment I didn’t even realize they had pushed it back. Cut it a little close to release didn’t they?
