i think the mildly techy sounding waffle is the right way to set it up personally, it lulls you into a false sense of security thinking this is just some random tech nonsense and then bam, porn

yeah but then they’d be spending money to be told they might not be 100% right and perfect 100% of the time, and that’s just a waste of money
i never got into twitter, and the longer this goes on, the more glad i am about that
this is the funniest thing i have seen today
You raise a good point, but are they still boycotting Nike, Gillette, or Keurig?
systemic change is required, that’s for sure. as to the how of that? fucked if i know tbh
Pandering came out in 2016, apparently, so that’s more like seven years. But also, we all know they’re going to forget about being mad at Bud Light, move on to the next stupid culture war BS and start buying their Bud Light again within the year.
unfortunately as long as they’re still subject to the whims of global capitalism, they will never be free from perverse incentives
this is an important step forward for the fight for equality in killing civilian children overseas and forcefully turning away asylum seekers
this is their cnn trump town hall. ten bucks says traffic spikes for /r/place and then drops below pre-/r/place levels.
i have what i imagine is a fairly unusual variation: my firstname.lastname is pretty common in the english speaking world, but my last name is apparently derived from a place if you go back far enough, so i use firstname.of.lastname. subtle but different.
i’m hoping everyone’s figured out that btc is a pyramid scheme by now
Yeah, you can only hear the same electrician joke so many times before it doesn’t amp you up anymore.
whether quickly, or slowly, by attrition
That’s certainly a valid and important question, but I’m not sure how relevant it is to the question of how Lemmy increases its operating revenue. If I’m living minimalist but my issue is I can’t sustainably afford housing, food, and healthcare, there’s no way to solve that problem without solving the fundamental issue of me not making enough money. My impression is that that is the main question facing Lemmy at this moment, and so that’s what I was focused on.
I suspect most financial advisors would tell you that managing money is what you do when you have some.
As in, some kind of “contributor” badge next to your username? That’s also definitely a good way to do it. Basically, if it makes donations visible on the community level, I think it’s a benefit.
If it was just built into the base software, then every instance would have the option available by default, no? And then it would just be a question of directing the money to the right place and displaying the relevant icon on the awarded post or comment.
I’m no software engineer, though, so it’s entirely possible everything I’m saying is total bollocks. Still, worth considering if we’re thinking about the long-term health of this place, IMO.
I bet if we stole the idea of reddit gold and allowed people to award comments and posts, but 1. no premium membership and 2. make it clear that the money is going to help keep the service running, that would bring in a lot of revenue without harming the community.
if that was true then maybe the stingy fuckers would tip wait staff
