That’s a really important distinction, thanks for clarifying

You can always block those instances for yourself in your settings

Edit: Sorry, sounds like your instance doesn’t have that yet but is getting an upgrade soon that will enable that feature

Yeah, that’s annoyed me too. This is being discussed and will likely be added sooner rather than later

I have several of those

These are some really good thoughts and topics to discuss at this stage in the Fediverse. We must be looking big-picture right now as we move forward. Thanks for pushing the envelope!

Spatial computing has gone too far

I should have thought of this sooner dangit

I found this on the web for, “no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no”

Pumpkin seeds, almonds, cashews, spinach, and black beans are among the best

this is oddly convincing

We can’t force people to join, but we can emphasize the negatives of Reddit and the ways Lemmy solves those. Things like:

• Lemmy does not collect personal data and share it with third parties like Reddit does
• Lemmy does not violate your privacy with tracking or ads like Reddit does
• Lemmy’s code and algorithms can be viewed and reviewed by anyone at any time as-is, unlike Reddit
• Lemmy is 100% self-funded and moderated by its own users across the world. Reddit and your data is governed by a single money-driven corporation with controversial leadership

People that value those things are the ones that will consider moving over. You might say that you’ve read over Reddit’s terms and conditions, and then present the Lemmy community as a private and safe alternative if anyone wishes to join?

Thanks a ton!

For those that don’t know, @[email protected] is a huge contributor to the Lemmy codebase and discussion on GitHub, probably aware of most problems before we are. Silence here likely means our admin is contributing to all of Lemmy or taking a much deserved break
