I know the description calls this a “sci-fi black comedy”, but needing to watch an ad in its entirety before being allowed to enter your home feels like a perfectly cyberpunk satire to me....
New recruits are getting spoiled (sh.itjust.works)
Is there a book/saga that you finished and cannot forget to the point where it gets harder to read other books?

Community Boundaries and the All feed
It recently struck me recently that a number of users mostly scroll the All feed. This came up in a conversation where people were discussing how their main usage of lemmy was to scroll All and then rely entirely on blocking to refine their feed....
