Why is it frowned upon here to 'steal' content from reddit?
If anything, shouldnât it be encouraged, and even automated? Iâm including even the âoldâ stuff from reddit here. Reddit shouldnât be the absolute owner of the content submitted by users.

How do you choose an instance and does that have a significant effect on your Lemmy experience?
I originally chose to make my account on lemmy.world since all the content seemed to come from there. But Iâve since learned that I can fill my feed with stuff from any instance so it feels like it doesnât actually matter if Iâm on lemmy.world or not. At the same time, Lemmy.world seems to be frequently under attack so...

Starcade - A show from 1982 where people compete against each other playing arcade games to see who gets the most points within a time limit (www.youtube.com)
I used to watch this show religiously as a kid. This is episode one. Itâs kind of weird. A guy too old to be on a show like that is competing against a little girl.
Why do most gaming laptops have vents on the bottom?
If youâre using the laptop as intended (i.e., on your lap), wouldnât those be almost entirely blocked?

Most âalternativeâ search engines to the big three (Google, Bing, Yandex aka GBY) just proxy their results from GBY. I took a look at 30 non-meta search engines with their own crawlers/indexers to find actual alternatives....
