I wouldn’t now but I 100% would have when I was in college. Although I would try to get away with making fake email accounts.

I see them in traverse now. Before, it seemed to only have one or two random communities even though I’m subscribed to dozens so I thought it was just some in development discovery thing. That’s neat, thanks.

Just commented the same lol they seem to be missing complimentary features at the moment. Memmy would be good if I could figure out how to see my subscribed communities and go directly to a community. Not sure if that feature is missing or buried. Mlem was a lot worse a week ago but now the only problem I’m having is I can’t get back to a post I’ve commented on if I get a reply. If that gets fixed, I’ll be happy with Mlem. Both are probably going to be great but I came from Apollo.

Switching between Memmy and Mlem. They seem to compliment each other in missing features. Although as Mlem improves, I’ll probably stay there. I’m used to Apollo.

If the hydrogen and oxygen get redistributed in the wrong way, the room will fill with water and you drown.

This is so much better! This is coming along nicely

I used to live in a house that looks almost identical to the Baltimore one.

Anyone else struggle to not read defederate as defenestrate?

But if we just included the blockchain think of the shareholder value we could be generating. We could be decentralizing the blockchain with crypto NFTs in the cloud or whatever.

When did Trump beat Mittens Romney?

You are here in bad faith. You’re not asking a question you just want to vent.

What kind of things do you craft?

I discovered there’s giant 5 hour+ videos of entire Saturday morning cartoon blocks from all different networks from the 90s on YouTube. Complete with bumpers and vintage ads.

I have to be up early on Saturdays now because the baby doesn’t understand sleeping in so I put these on.

I guess you’re a HAM radio operator in this analogy

That’s a good point although with smart phones, I wonder how much of the teenager traffic is baked in year round now. Summer Reddit was terrible but then it just became Reddit.

How many people are less engaged in the internet at the beginning of summer because they’re on vacation or partying? I would think drops like this as the weather improves are pretty normal.

That hurts my heart

I don’t think it’s inevitable Threads will have a better user experience than non-corporate apps. Meta has different goals and will optimize the user experience to drive profits. Look at how they continuously make Facebook and Instagram worse to drive engagement.

Also, see Reddit. Apollo was one dude’s project that blows the official app out of the water. And all the other apps scrambling to support Lemmy benefit from apps like Apollo and Reddit is Fun lessons in UX. It’s early days but we’re already seeing Lemmy apps with a lot of potential.

Linux is another example. Technical issues for new users aside, there’s a lot of beautiful, easy to use desktops that blow windows 10/11 out of the water. And other less new user friendly options for power users are available as well.

The community driven approach has been demonstrated to work because it’s only goal is to give the community a good experience.

I definitely respect the dedication to playing on the original hardware. I got a retrostone a few years ago and it’s pretty fun for mobile retro gaming. I’ve got access to all the game boy iterations and NES, SNES and Sega Genesis and it looks kinda like an original game boy.

Yeah, I’ve played through Gold a bunch of times. It never really grabs me like the original one does. I play through Red about once a year.
