  • AFAIK all of them are fake warning signs but, as you said, some of them reference real stuff.

    I didn't add any indication that they are fake because I assumed it was implied by posting in science fiction communities. If not, I will add a warning.

  • There is an example from the x-post on !comics@lemmy.ml:

    This hits home. I have a kitten on my lap right now that my daughter found on the side of the road yesterday... we think she's about 6-8 weeks old. (...)

    EDIT: And another one:

    Totally true lmao. Its how I got my cat Chevy. He was found as a kitten by my Uncle on the tire of my Grandfathers Chevy. Years later the same Uncle found another kitten on the axle of his car, he named it Axle. He also named Chevy. He is definitely creative with naming cats.

  • I was talking about reporting a user account as a whole, not a specific comment or post.

    But I din't make it clear enough, so I will edit to avoid confusing people. Thanks!

  • twitch raids

    INDEED, THANKS! I was sure this couldn't really be something new but I couldn't figure out any references.

    Twitch raids are (almost, as you said) the perfect example.

    a community should be able to indicate that they're open to raids or not.

    And another option would be to allow Raid Requests in sub...

    Good food for thought, thanks.

  • maybe lemmy is different

    My (100% speculative) theory is that lemmy/fediverse is too disperse for its size, a lot of very small communities with the exception of a very small number of successful ones.

    If that's the case, this could help with the "nucleation" of mid size communities in the short term.

    I also find the experiment interesting and fun by itself. As said in the post, I don't think anyone should post more that they like just for the sake of growth.

    Thanks for the feedback!

  • but going past that (...) gets real obnoxious with how it saturates "all".

    I agree. My current strategy is to have list of 10-to-20-ish small communities I think can succeed and try to post to them every day or two.

    I took a look and one of your communities is (since a couple of days ago) on that list: !gameart@sopuli.xyz

    See you there!

  • Of course I could be wrong, but I don't agree.

    When people go to a community in which its last post was 2 weeks ago, it's much less likely that they interact with that community (posting or commenting) than if the community has multiple posts per day. And that also affects the possibility that they come back in the next days. If you set the proper environment for enough users to interact and come back then, when the "campaign" ends, the level can be much greater than when it started.

    I'm not saying that just posting a lot in a community for a few days guarantees it will grow after that, that's not how communities work. What I'm saying is that it can work with different degrees of success. And, if done properly, it can be fun to try.

  • Personally, I can't separate the feeling of self from my vision, so "I" am directly behind my eyeballs and I can't change it.

    My experience is very similar, and I tend to explain it as "I (feel I) am my frontal cortex", which it's conveniently positioned there.

    Can you move?

    If I close my eyes, I don't feel I can move in the sense of "going to a different place", but I feel like I have an "internal orientation" which (almost always) aligns with where I'm looking at. But with the eyes shut I can change that orientation and point it in different directions.

    I don't know if this will make sense to anyone... it's very hard to explain these sensations with words.

  • Just to confirm I understand: you are talking about Power Query VS Power Bi for dealing with huge datasets, right?

    Because, in my case, with 16Mb, I don't see the need for anything specially powerful. My problem is not performace, but convenience.

    Thanks for the input.
