Formerly @DudePluto@lemmy.ml - migrated to help with server load.
Migrating soon to @DudePluto@lemm.ee due to disagreements with lemmy.world’s implementation of Rule 1.
Then we just need to put ice cubes in the ocean. Plus that would help us cool the earth down
You lost a remnant of someone you cared about, so it makes sense even though it was bad for you in the long run
Reminds me of my local Rally’s switching to an “automated drive thru assistant.” The jank thing doesn’t even respond when you talk to it, just reminds you every 60 seconds that it’s ready when you are. First time I went I drove off. Went a second time thinking it might have been a fluke and I’d get actual human service. Nope. Guess I’ll be finding a new burger place for my hangovers
Hoping that one makes the transition myself. I would also love to see r/AcademicBiblical make the move. It was a great collection of resources and academic-level discussion of ancient judeo-christian religion. I mod three communities right now, and c/BiblicalStudies at !biblicalstudies@lemmy.world is the only one I made with the hopes of one day handing it off completely to someone with more expertise than me. Doesn’t have to be the reddit mods (I disagree with that idea), just someone better suited for that rigorous of a community
I can’t fathom having all these unique experiences, all these stories and love letters to genres and cultures getting lost in the vortex of time.
Something something lost like tears in the rain. (Blade Runner)
Just know that every generation before you and every generation after feels the same about their culture/experiences. C’est la vie
Humanity’s existed for hundreds of thousands of years without any kind of permanent medium, and we still do. It’s only in the very recent history of extreme archival that we’ve come to think that information should last forever.
Houses, cities, peoples, cultures, public works, countries, knowledge, technologies, languages - all that we are is ephemeral, and we’ll continue on
witty commentary on current issues
Am I the only one who doesn’t enjoy the twitter-takes? Don’t get me wrong, I actually agree with most of the takes. It’s just that it all feels like they’re trying to one-up each other with the cleverest gotcha and it makes me roll my eyes. Maybe I’m just not the target audience for a twitter/mastodon style community
I’d just log off lol
How about you use the most basic social etiquette available and be at least not a total asshole.
And how about I take this chance to remind everyone that we can all block the users we don’t want to interact with. And that maintaining a block list is a great way to ensure a decent online experience
Third party apps were only the tip of the iceberg. The bigger issue is the increasing monetization of data and recommendations across the site. This whole thing is ultimately about who will shape the internet: users or corporations. That’s why it’s silly for people to pretend there’s a neutral opinion
Yeah after getting used to the not-totally-assholes community of lemmy I’m not going back to reddit. The community there kinda sucks
Using Connect too, surprised I don’t hear more about it. It’s not perfect, but it’s pretty solid

she needs to join a Mastodon instance for sewing but a different instance for knitting
Am I missing something? I thought Mastodon worked just like lemmy where you can subscribe cross-instance
The change was so evident, even for someone like me who (used to) not keep up with reddit drama and inner workings. AMAs used to be so fun, they’d always end up on the front page. I can’t remember the last one (other than Rick Astley’s) that wasn’t a bore
It’s pretty insane the amount of work they did for free. I never even thought about the effort that went into a sub like that. Good for them
I would imagine it working just like on reddit and lemmy, where it can originally be claimed by the original poster or anyone who wants it. It’s obviously not an ideal solution, but it’s worked well enough historically. Maybe someone else would have a better idea
Is there a community for this?
