In this
houseplanet we obey the laws of thermodynamics!
My top favourite is already the top most voted so I’ll just mention a few that I think are classics that I didn’t see on the list:
Sir robin bravely ran away
Holy hand grenade
The animator having a heart attack
Thank you for translating that to English
What I don’t get is why not pretend it’s centralized and just recommend a server when you introduce someone to lemmy instead of trying to teach them?
Oh you want an alternative to Reddit, here, go to lemmy.ca since your Canadian.
So I sort either by hot or active, and view either home or all.
Home + hot is the least noisy and I use it for my feed good time, although lots of politics still comes through.
All + active shows you the most controversial stuff, pretty much your regular political dramas.
All + hot leads to random posts from communities that are obscure, can be very fun sometimes.
Honestly, imo the biggest problem is the state of the world, not the technology
Yeah… the only thing that gives me hope is the Simpsons shit posting sub, it’s just a little less active than the Reddit equivalent. I guess being a Simpson fan made you more likely to migrate.
I think we were growing and then the election cycle happened.
Kind of wish lemmy happened a decade earlier before all the constant rage.
Okay so how is there no nerdy subs for stuff like this?
There isn’t that few of us, I think we just keep getting drowned in politics.
I haven’t seen many comments not wanting people to join but more like, we are fine even if they don’t.
When I joined lemmy, I found it to be rather easy, so I never understood this barrier to entry.
I think it’s because someone just linked me to an instance, so I just went there and signed up like a regular site.
Ideally we want more users and for the fediverse to hit critical mass but idk how that can ever happen when corporate social media sites will always have a marketing budget.
So imo it’s not the difficulty, it’s like wondering why people keep paying for certain software when there are free alternatives, cause corporate software will always be more dumbed down.
People keep answering by trying to tell you to consume your way out of this.
There is only one way, organize, unionize and vote!
Wait that’s a thing?
Holy shit that a thing!? That’s awesome!!
Pretty sure Valve has already realized the correct way to be a tech monopoly is to provide a good user experience.
Before 2024 it felt like an old school forum.
After that and the election cycle, feels more like Reddit in 2018
It’s easy, every morning I get up I take a few mins to put on clothes
By up to date on clothing and fashion you mean making sure your clothed every day right?
First time I saw the news of the war in Ukraine and saw the footage of the helicopters flying in, I heard the flight of the valkyries in my head.
It was like a moment in a movie where the villain finally made their big appearance.
In this example a sugar is something that is sweet.
Another example is artificial flavours still being a flavour.
Or like artificial light being in fact light.
There is an alternative reality out there where LLMs were never marketed as AI and were marketed as random generator.
In that world, tech savvy people would embrace this tech instead of having to constantly educate people that it is in fact not intelligence.
If you think of LLMs as something with actual intelligence you’re going to be very unimpressed
Artificial sugar is still sugar.
Artificial intelligence implies there is intelligence in some shape or form.
Yeah but far easier than without it. I do agree, making something just a little harder always means fewer people using it.
