Keep embracing digital only, assholes… This is what you’re signing up for.

Fuck Reddit, but shouldn’t be so excited for external validation. We’re doing a good thing building this community, we know that without them signing off.

En-what-iffication everyone?

OP, derogatory term. Maybe you aren’t aware?

“Matt the cat, who’s also a bat with a hat, sat on a mat with a bat in a flat about which a fat user named Pat with a fresh tat (who just shat) now has a chat.”

-Pat

This is growth for the sake if it? “Chance we getting many of them”?

No outside and lick some public benches, you’ll have a great chance of getting splinters in your tongue and many of them diseases! Go! you need more! Go!

This was being discussed actively months ago. People would say the full embrace, extend… then, but now there’s a somewhat fair assumption that most who are actually on Lemmy might have the reference by now.

All you have to do is say, "what does EEE mean? " without the second half of your statement - no need to get angry.

Ate the stories of the lead developer being not so cool, true? Nice promises up front that turn to shit on behalf of pleasing investors?

More pale and more bald, they’re not going to let him take his makeup and combover assembly tab into jail

Huh…

Woman chooses to die in favor of the comfort of stupidity.

That TL,DR is missing the actual reason… Extended pandemic profiteering to “get even” with consumers for staying inside for half a week and not shopping at their fullest potential.

Capitalists are quoted as saying, “we will be made whole, and then some, and you’ll apologize for what you did to us.”

Thanks.

We need a basic set of criteria to vet new small instances as minimally viable, what are they?

Just spitballing a few…

• At least federated with large instances X, Y and Z…
• X or above uptime percentage
• no more than X ratio of users to posts
• clearly stated content standards and a functional nazi/fascist/misinformation moderation effort

What do you think the list should be?

OP, curious if you suspect the admins are genuine and didn’t know this was occurring?

Or, did they create these bot accounts themselves, get called out on it, remove quickly to alleviate suspicion and now they’ll wait for the right moment to recreate them all?

Something like this needs to be incorporated by devs at the UX onboarding level if you want success.

During mass migration times, you need to really hold new users hands to curate a path towards community ideals. Needs to be as easy as clicking boxes to attempt to create accounts on multiple instances and then app defaults to the local option to start, or something similar.

You’ll only get a few crumbs here and there from dedicated people if it’s that manual of a process.
