I’ve been using this one a bit more during these federation backups. I can’t really adopt it as my daily driver, though. My home instance is the one I run, so I tend to favor it. lol

If my instance ever gets sync’d back up where I can interact in something approximating real-time, I may make that happen lol.

Oh, I was just lamenting that such a garbage post is contributing to the backlog because of the activities it generates (which LW has to federate out since its “owns” the community this was posted in). Basically a potshot at a low-effort, shit take of a post.

It’s a Lemmy thing. Basically latency limits the maximum number of activities that can be sent per second (they’re sent like TCP: serially, and each must be acknowledged). When LW has a LOT of activities to send out, they can get backlogged if there’s significant latency between LW and other federated servers.

That’s the gist of it, anyway.

Good lord, I can’t believe Lemmy World’s federation queue is backed up for so many other instances because of stupid shit like this.

OP, the wording of the post is very confusing. Would you mind perhaps editing the post to clarify your opinion?

Thanks!

I think the distributed nature of the Fediverse is a big part of it. Lot of moderation policies at play, on a lot of different instances and some allow some real jerks to flourish and spill out elsewhere. I have zero tolerance for any of that garbage and am very quick with my block/ban buttons, but those are only effective on my own instance or the few communities I moderate outside that.

OP, best I can suggest is to report them. Most of the communities I interact with are pretty responsive to those kinds of reports and similarly don’t tolerate it. Mods, unfortunately, can’t read every comment and often rely on reports to know when to look deeper/take action.

And don’t feel bad about blocking the jerks. There’s a lot of them, lol.

As a GIF, that scene looks like it’s cut from a horror movie lol.

Lol, yeah. I was referencing the plot (Elaine accidentally grabs her breast in the sauna and tells Jerry she think’s they’re fake).

Also, I tried to merge that exact GIF into the static image but failed miserably 😆.

Not gonna lie, you almost got me. 😆

More like a parasite since it’s competing with the rest of your body for that oxygen.

My reaction when Aisling Bea joins the cast/panel of anything:

Downvoting because I agree.

So sick of it being shoved into everything, all the hype about it, and all the drivel it spits out.

The only reason that’s the case is because OpenAI had something people ooh’d, ahh’d, clapped, and threw money at and all the other tech companies said “me too!” and threw their half-baked abominations into everything in order to suck up that sweet, sweet training data.

I think most people, even outside Lemmy, are in favor of legalization. There’s just a lot of old people in charge of the laws who are against it because of years of “Reefer Madness” propaganda crap.

Like, Ohio had a ballot initiative not long ago to legalize it recreationally and, after it passed, their legislature tried to knee-cap it (unsuccessfully, I believe).

All I can focus on is the TI-92 lol.

I wanted one so badly, but it wasn’t allowed on most tests because of it’s QWERTY keyboard. I had the TI-89 which was basically the same thing but smaller.

Not real tags, just [Tag] in the post title.

e.g. [General] Cheerios are the Best Cereal

The crux of this type of community. The popular opinion on Lemmy could be somewhere else’s unpopular opinion and vice versa.

Yeah, that’s why we added the optional guideline to tag opinions as generally unpopular or unpopular on Lemmy. Quite often, those are two very different things.
