This blog has long been a go-to resource for me for Jungian theory. There’s a lot of good stuff here to go beyond the 4 letters and learn about cognitive functions and function stacks.
Why YSK: you can recreate the old Reddit experience by using this frontend for those who have always used old.reddit. It also gives a nostalgic feel, is more efficent, and loads faster than the Lemmy interface....
I’m very curious: does single Lemmy instance have the ability to horizontally scale to multiple machines? You can only get so big of a machine. You did mention a second container, so that would suggest that the Lemmy software is able to do so, but I’m curious if I’m reading that right.
Even if he actually thought that, why the fuck would you say that right now when a large amount of your community is revolting against you? Comments like these are only further destabilizing a bad situation. If I was on the board, and even if I fully supported the changes, I would have him removed for adding more fuel to the fire.
It could be a suck-up investment play. The problem with hoping a narc like Elon invests in you is that the second you’re not useful to them, they will dispense with you like a dirty cumsock. See: all the people who tried to suck up to Donald Trump and ended up with damaged reputations.
Reddit seems to be in a bad way financially. Their investors have written them down. They’re still making losses. They’re laying people off. They’re implementing these absurd API changes. They need to make a lot of changes to monetize something that’s hard to monetize, and I think that this is a sign of much worse things to come for them and their users. Despite their success at online relevancy, they’re actually a bad business and I wouldn’t be surprised if at some point they got bought out by private equity and picked apart.
The sad part is that it didn’t need to be this way. I think in trying to get hyper-growth and relevancy among normies, they ended up investing too much into areas that would help them do that. If they had stayed content to remind a simple forum, I think they could have been a sustainable business. But the VCs demand to have a unicorn, I guess.
I decided to take a peek at Reddit to see what kind of activity is happening, a good handful of the subreddits I am subscribed to are still super active with posts and commenters....
Wow, I didn’t realize the Reddit to Digg migration was so drawn out. Do we know how big the initial migration to Reddit actually was in terms of user count? It seems like Lemmy/Kbin are seeded with a few tens of thousands of users, and I wonder how it compares.
I mean there's Reddit ofc, as well as Twitter in its entirety, Discord is implementing some dumb updates, there are issues with Tumblr as well as everything to do with Meta, and I'm sure there are plenty more (and I haven't even touched other digital media, for example the Sims). Why is it all happening in the span of about a...
So basic usability question here. If I end up looking at a post on a different Lemmy server (say, over at beehaw) and want to comment/vote on it, how can I quickly open it up on my home Lemmy server?...
What are some quality YouTube channels that you recommend?

Took a peek on Reddit, it really boggles my mind how oblivious and obedient people are.

Why does it feel like we're at a point where every social media + other digital media are making shitty decisions and falling apart?
