I guess some of that has come over here based on your comment scores, but at least your comments aren’t being removed 🤷♀️ I haven’t been downvoting anything here based on disagreement cause a) I think discouraging people from sharing their opinions here will kill the site, even if you don’t like their opinions and b) I think it’s wrong anyway.
And I have 8gb in my work laptop. C’est la vie
Fair enough, just stating how it works at my org
We’re in the surface ecosystem where I work and the performance is abysmal. Granted we’re at 8gb ram on our standard models so not much to go off but it’s a super heavy application for what it’s doing
Completely agree. Back in the day I used to just scroll through /r/all and constantly stumble across cool stuff, now it’s devoid of any decent content. Whenever I read any of those millions of aita posts they’d always be clear fiction, and then full of comments as if they were absolutely true. The general quality of content on that site is at absolute rock bottom.
I am glad Lemmy has a small barrier to entry. It’s easy enough that you don’t need any sort of technical knowledge to sign up and use but it requires a little more effort than most social media, which hopefully acts as something of a filter. Reddit now kind of reminds me of usenets “eternal September”.
From discussion I’ve heard by my gen z friends I’m pretty sure apple could sell almost anything and people will buy it and claim it’s the best thing ever. Airpods are treated as jewelery at this point. I will say their phones are decent products but they’re way too locked down for me to ever own one. Great for my parents etc who want something simple
Wait it’s a panel? I thought it was some weird seethrough glass but I guess I didn’t think very hard about how that would work.
Part of me, and I think everyone else here, wants some level of vindication in the form of Reddit taking a hit. Likely most of the current users won’t notice any big changes and most of it will be back to the content they’re used to in a few months. But as someone else here pointed out it’s likely Reddit will survive as Facebook has, shitty recycled content from other platforms and zero decent discussion. Which again, 90% of their current user base won’t notice or care about. I’m just glad we’ve got a new place where the discussion seems to be a bit more on par with old Reddit
I knew it was over when my feed was plastered with various subreddits for food delivery workers
Forgive my ignorance but if you federate an instance, does that instance have to federate you back? In order for you to comment/upvote/see posts etc?
I agree entirely. Just because I might not agree with someone on their politics doesn’t mean we can’t have a civil discussion, especially regarding apolitical topics
