  • Is it better to eat eggs and oats cereal on separate days form eachother or together on the same day, although not together, side to side?

    Jump

  • just a preference of eating them seperately on the same day together if it is healthy vs on different days

  • I am proud that one of my posts managed to get to 100 upvotes.

  • When searching for Lemmy communities do you sort by new, old or top hour etc

    Jump

  • I feel sorting top 6 hours would make more sense for me if I were sorting posts/coments within a community itself, because I would want the newest posts, but at that point I just defualt to new anyways.

    But when searching for communities, personally i'm not for sorting it by hours or days because I want to make sure a community has an ok track record of being active, but at the same time i'm not wanting to keep a monopoly so that's why I don't go out of my way to sort the communities by top year or something like that because then we'd have another Google. I strive to strike a balence.

  • I understand that too, as there are less users then mastodon, although I found the interaction to be pretty tolerable on lemmy in the comments on some of the communities i've joined, untill you get into more niche communities.

  • if you like anime you can try Sakurajima.moe, the staff and users on that particular instance are conversaters.

  • I wouldn't use mastodon without hashtags, but they have their limitations and potential short comings.

  • That's a way to look at it.

  • What's the worst case of question dodging you have seen someone do?

    Jump

  • Say someone was accused of doing something, but there was no proof, even though they knew they did the thing except for the judge, and everyone knows they did the thing, just keep your lips sealed during all questions and claim the 5th.

  • Twitter doing this was by design, while Mastodon doesn't tend to shadow ban. I might make my guesses about why, but I don't know the actual complete reasoning as to why it seems to be better for discusion on Lemmy.

    Jump

  • I guess that's particularly what I meant. While mastodon you'd have to build up a following to get anywhere near even the amount of comments on this post right here. Unless you get lucky with one or two posts which can happen, I known an owner of a smaller Mastodon instance (with more then 300 users so not the smallest of small instances but still small.) to manage to get over 100 likes and over 50 boosts on a post, and when they did they linked to it and was like, "ha, see you can get traction on Mastodon."

  • People could advertise this as feature about using lemmy, that the probalility of getting comments are pretty high. particularly on Mastodon, because it's certainly something people are looking for, after coming from platforms like Youtube that keep hiding your posts. I think it's mostly the ease of use with the communities. Because on Mastodon, while a instance hosted may have a dedicated topic, posts aren't typically organized. and it's harder to find posts that interests you if people either use different hash tags then what you search for, and the added fact that you have to constantly search, while once you join a Lemmy community you just scroll the post feed In said community.

  • I love sorting by new, I kinda wish it was a defualt thing, while on Mastodon posts seem to automatically sort by new, yet I seem to get less interaction in comments on various posts on Mastodon.

  • Is Lemmy as a platform sustainable?

    Jump

  • I mean.. you could try merch..? not much else

  • Is Lemmy as a platform sustainable?

    Jump

  • I disagree, because with a forum, generally it was just one server right to begin with? It's just a little bit different then the fediverse in that forums didn't federate at all. Time will tell what will happen to the fediverse. I would pay close attention to Mastodon as it has the most users off all federated services. Whatever happens to to it are signs, look out for them

  • Is Lemmy as a platform sustainable?

    Jump

  • plus it's federated, not just a single site. The cost for hosting services are divided by instance so say one instance goes down, that doesn't kill the entire program, although it would erase a portion of communities from Lemmy history in such a situation. Also it would be cheaper to host a Lemmy instance as the prices of hosting the instances that build up Lemmy are divided.

  • Is Lemmy as a platform sustainable?

    Jump

  • I think it's more sustainable then Facebook ,Twitter and others. Why? Because it's federated! if one instance goes bankrupt or shuts down for whatever reason it doesn't close down the entire program. If anything, at worst a portion of Lemy communities would get erased from history. Lemmy in reality is really just an interface, with a bunch of different instances combined to provide the content. The cost is actually cheaper then other social platforms from the last 10 years+ like Facebook because in a way the cost for the "service" is divided by all the different instances hosted by volunteers,

    I hope this makes sense, if any questions do ask.

    Has Nintendo lost it's magic or is it just now waking up and making good games again - my thoughts included, but what are the views of Lemy users?
