Super cool and great find. I always wanted one of these
I think it can encourage unintended behaviors like karma farming.
I’ve seen similar trends in some FPS games in which during immediate game play your kill to death ratio is hidden to keep people engaged with the main loop instead of getting worked up over their stats.
Super cool. Its out of scope for my field but the tool is great
Totally agree on 8 and even 11 appears to be busy despite their intent for the contrary. That being said I feel like 10 will go down in history with XP and 7 as being simple and usable. I could have blinders on though because I’ve been using it for like a decade now.
“Quick! Lets go to war on it!”
Or maybe we should hold ISPs accountable for the $400 Billion they pocketed instead of laying fiber in the late 90s.

Idk, this isn’t simply about making and selling a widgit or service. It’s an interesting other in which the vast majority of the product and service is created and run by the same users. Reddit just creates a space but people don’t really care about the space generally. They care about what happens in the space that the users create and moderate. The users can just find another hangout which could eliminate the need for the space.
Sweet build but also, you have a fantastic kitchen
Not an argument for returning to office but rather pointing out the lack of boundaries that can come with it
Corporate jargon has infected my brain
Yeah totally agree and I also work from home and won’t go back.
It’s just that the other side of the coin for me has been a lack of boundaries when for all intents and purposes we should all be working less.
Feels like 3 things in our current discourse:
The reality is that there was/is no reddit alternative and right now we’re all in this transitory phase where we’re all looking for a new home. We’ll all just have to wait for the dust to settle. Lemmy isn’t perfect but is improving and additionally other alternatives like kbin and tildes are in the works.
To your larger point, much of what you’re feeling is the abrupt break in habits. I’ve been using the gap to develop more positives ones, and it’s been great.
My proposed solution to this issue is a way to group subscribed channels. Like if I sub to x number of Games communities I wish I could drop them all in a folder labeled Games so I could browse all of those posts in one spot.
UI would be like Communities -> Subscribed (All) -> “Individual” folder hierarchy containing w/e you want.
GIVE ME BACK MY DAMN 3.5MM HEADPHONE JACK ON MY PHONE!!!
Yeah once I discovered the general lean of that instance, I made a decision to make my account over at Beehaw given the more inclusive policies and structure. I’d direct more users to either sign up there or consider creating a new instance.
To your point, they are entitled to their leanings and I welcome that (also follow some of their communities), but overall I don’t think it’s a great first representation of whats possible on Lemmy.
This is the fallout from the technology industry shrinking and coming to terms with itself. See the crash of the Silicon Bank recently as an example. Basically as the positive outlook toward these kind of businesses and pursuits continues to mellow out we’ll see these companies look inward to squeeze as much money out of their products as possible.
