That’s good(?) to know. I asked because I didn’t get those results, I got stupid food, Harris/Trump stuff, kids dancing and obvious ads. Who knows with algorithm stuff how they decide to start.
Out of curiosity do you see similar results without the VPN? A well known VPN provider might already be flagged to show certain types of content.
Of course that’s all secondary since this is a problem with most of these services (and not just short form content). I don’t see a situation where we can ensure people don’t see this sort of content. Plus it would be impossible to properly categorize “good” vs “bad”. I think you’ve just got to make sure that the opposing content is available and that friends/family can help direct people. People who found their way in need to find their way out, but they can have help.
So the community (users) can move, but I just realized that when an instance shuts down the community (posts) limps on, preventing the community (posts) from actually dying and the community (users) from moving on.
For instance, if you asked me, a lemmy.world user about [email protected] I would see, https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected]
But if you ask a sh.itjust.works user they see, https://sh.itjust.works/c/[email protected]
And lemmy.ml users see, https://lemmy.ml/c/[email protected]
We all see different versions of the same community (posts).
I think https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/4619 would fix this.
Re Concentration I’m not concerned that it is as of yet a problem. However I do think it is also a larger problem for Mastodon and other user-centric platforms than it is to Lemmy and other community-cetric platforms.
If a Mastodon user wants to leave their server there are migration pains. If your server makes a controversial change, you may have to migrate. As a follower if something goes wrong I have to remember that I was following Ada & Bob, but maybe Bob now goes by Bobby.
However as a Lemmy user I can just abandon my server and be done with it. If my server makes a controversial change, I can just leave. As a community follower can watch as Star Trek Memes becomes Risa, or Risa becomes Ten Forward. The names changed completely but it’s easy to find my community again.
I use flat case most of the time, but I also try to stick to single word files so there is no case to get in the way.
I think for documents I might share like a PDF I’d use Pascal case.
In a classroom or teaching setting I will sometimes use Kebab case as I find it is the least confusing and makes it extra clear where the word division is. Similarly I avoid Dot notation since it’s confusing for folks coming from a Windows world.
And I would avoid Screaming because that’s just too loud anywhere.

Gen 1 Aurora Beam has a niche.

Sure Reddit and Lemmy are different technical stacks, but neither is doing anything particularly unique or complicated.
If Reddit wanted to federate it could. It would take some work but it would be an achievable task in a reasonable amount of time.
Perhaps scaling or stability issues. I’m not sure the Fediverse is ready to handle the number of actions a site like Reddit handles. Then again I’m not super well versed on that part of the Lemmy software, so maybe it would be fine.
Sure that reveals your distro, but also consider what is in the logs you’re sharing. If you’re asking for help you probably also already said that you’re running Debian. Or the logs are full of apt logs already, querying a well known Debian mirror.
You’re right that PC is a fine default, but think about the whole picture as well.
Sure but if someone paid you $12m a year to throw a ball around, would you take it?
If another team offered you $13m would you change teams?
If everyone else is getting paid $12m, can I just pay you $50k?
Also if the entire NBA colluded to reduce everyones pay by $1m per year, every year, would that be fair and reasonable?
Is the problem account making or data having persistence/backups?
Or is the issue having an account on service A, service A dieing and then when you create an account on service B you have to start over again, so we need to improve account portability?
I guess I also wonder… Is that a real problem for Lemmy? For Mastodon where you follow users sure, but does anyone care about their Lemmy account?
And what’s stopping that from happening now?
I assumed, perhaps incorrectly, that servers die because they are difficult to maintain. This is perhaps especially true for kbin/mbin based servers.
I suppose for enough money some might be willing to maintain, but I’m not sure it’s that simple.
Is there a solution to make the whole ecosystem mature and professional?
Certainly having everyone on one instance isn’t the way to go.
That’s what I find so interesting about this result.
For example Apple is paid ~$20 billion, or arguably charges that amount, to be the default search engine. That’s REAL money when compared to the Reddit deal.
Sure, but if the argument is that Google is paying to be a monopoly then they’re going to have to stop payment.
Google allegedly paid $60 million for access to Reddit for AI purposes. Reddit then disallowed access to all other providers, unless they can promise they won’t use the data for AI purposes.
Technically Reddit is the one disallowing access, but if the argument is that Google is paying for special access I don’t see why I wouldn’t extend to AI.
Reddit now needs to either argue their data is some special intellectual property worth $60 million or is at a price point more accessible and it sure as shit won’t be $60 million.
The funny thing is that this probably screws Reddit more than anyone. Obviously fuck 'em but funny either way.
Luckily they didn’t say Hardcore mode, so you can just respawn.
As far as I know. You could probably get fancy moving to dev mode and then install whatever, but I’m plenty happy with Debian.
Oh you’re right. I saw the 9/11 and missed the year, 2022.
