We already have the same problem here. Some of our major communities have belligerent mods on problematic instances.

We’re not solving that problem, we’re just making it easier to hide from it via defederation.

If federation works the way it’s claimed to, then if we migrate even the bad parts of reddit here it should be fine.

Lemmy is turning into an elitist cesspool.

Lots of edgelords here like “I don’t want the reddit plebs here” as though they weren’t happily one of them a couple years ago.

Let them come over. Put the idea of federation to the test. Isn’t that one of the major features of federation, if there are a bunch of shitty people you can just degenerate or use a different community?
If federation does what it claims then it’ll only be an improvement.

I agree with people saying not to force people here if they don’t wanna be (not that we could), but the people saying that folks still on reddit are there because they inherently prefer the reddit application UX is crazy. They prefer the content in reddit. And they have a point.

Folks here are way more insufferable than reddit. Just the other day there was a post being like “why do reddit users hate Lemmy?” And linked a reddit post about it. But the comments on the reddit post were considered, nuanced, and polite; while the comments on the Lemmy post were a bunch of neckbeards crying about how terrible reddit users are.

TLDR y’all need to look in the mirror.

Why did you even bring up AI? IDEs have been able to generate equality functions for decades without AI.

It’s kinda neat to have this defined directly in the language so that compilers can implement it, but creating equality function is so low effort that this doesn’t really seem like a big deal.

Like, you define the members in a class, then you tell your IDE to generate getters, constructor, equals, hashcode, etc all in like 5 seconds.
I like it, it’s nice when the language itself defines reasonable defaults for things, but realistically you’re saving yourself a few seconds of effort.

I mean, if your IDE does it for you, is it really that much better that it’s shorter?

Honestly, in my experience since I fully moved to Lemmy:

Almost any subreddit is more mature than any Lemmy channel.
This isn’t just number of users (but that’s a huge problem that has been mentioned here a lot), it means that the chance you’ll run into a mod who is a tinpot despot is pretty high, and there is nothing you can do about it if you’re not willing to sit alone in a ghost town alternate community.

Almost everyone in the linked Reddit post seems to be supportive of Lemmy, or even Lemmy users. Even the people who tried it and stopped seem generally warm to the idea and just think it needs polish.

I’d say that this comment section is way more vitriolic than that one lol

Interesting.

So that means match any string that is made entirely of a single repeating sequence, where repititon is possible.

Empty input Or input of exactly 1 character Or input of at least 2 characters, followed by at least 1 something (idk what \1 matches)

Did I get it (almost)?

There are lots of reasons to want alternatives to social media mega-corps, and the people with those reasons have varied likes and hobbies.
Even amongst the people who care about privacy, decentralization, etc, people still have varied interests. All you have to do is look at the popularity of Tiktok content about privacy, security, programming, etc.

Dude is a basement dweller, and just assumed that was the norm for everyone who shared an interest with him.

I have my own thoughts about hurdles that loops will face, but “fediverse is for snobs” isn’t it.

Where?

Lamest flex in history

Because the constraints make it interesting
I want the length limits.

Yeah, the fediverse would be much better place without narcissistic gatekeeps like you here to bring the mood down all the time.

What an absolute neckbeard take

I’m interested, and I hope it’s successful.

I’m not sure how they’re going to attract creators, when Tiktok already has the same features, has a larger audience, and pays… But I hope they can because I’d love to dump Tiktok for something open source.

I wonder how their FYP will work, because honestly that’s a huge part of what makes Tiktok good.

It’s hard to find a very of any variety that isn’t a raving douche

Yeah I knew they weren’t plants but it made the analogy easier to pretend they were 😅
They have plant-ey vibes

They were all like “let’s get the Calvin cycle up in this house, lets light it up!” And so they did, and the atmosphere caught fire

Very cool!

It reminds me of my fav, The Oxygen Catastrophy, where basically a plant did something new and caused the earth to freeze. In this case, by converting methane to carbon dioxide, a much weaker greenhouse gas.

I like it!
I kind of feel like “locomotive” itself is a niche so this is more like a collapse of a niche rather than a mass extinction, but I love the analogies
