Do I understand correctly that I have to subscribe to 5 different NoStupidQuestions on 5 different instances?

  • That's a good perspective. Thank you for that. I'll try to look at it like a farmer's market from now on

    • Filter an entire instance?

    Jump

  • Yeah, that exploding heads nonsense could definitely disappear from my feed

    • Whats the lemmy demographic?

  • 19/f/California

    Internet young'ns, this is how we know it's a 40ish year old dude

    • Can we just parse the whole Reddit and upload it to a separate Lemmy instance

  • I'm not really involved or in a position to act on something like this; I'm just a user passing by. Bearing that in mind, I have a thought about this topic that your question teased out.

    Reddit has become increasingly bad over the last several years with low quality karma farming, predictable shitty overused in-jokes, Facebook style content, and spam/scam bots. The recent decisions by reddit made me realize it was time to go, but that was just the straw that broke the camel's back. All of the other terribleness that reddit had to offer were the most significant causes for me. Yes, there was absolutely some amazing, informative, high quality original and thoughtful content, and I'll definitely miss that. But here there is the opportunity to make something new. Something better.

    Reddit has some strong positives that can be inspirational in the fediverse, but we (in my opinion) shouldn't be trying to clone reddit here. Therefore, I don't think we should be setting up bots to crosspost everything here and eventually make this Reddit 2. Of course, others have their opinions which are entirely valid. Just adding some thoughts to this matter.

  • This question is basically "a/s/l?"

    And since I know that, you know at least how old I am

    • Samsung’s new 98-inch 8K TV is the projector-beating home theater upgrade I’ve been waiting for

    Jump

  • I guarantee it's loaded with ads and bloatware too. Samsung is the worst for that

  • It seems to me like there are 5 places the grocery store has tomatoes and and you need to check all 5 places before you know which place you should buy from. Then, maybe next time you're at the grocery store, a different spot will have the better tomatoes and there are also 3 other new tomato stands in the store.

    I'm definitely grateful for lemmy or kbin or mastodon or wherever the fuck I am right now as a reddit replacement, but this shit is confusing and annoying

    • California has spent billions to fight homelessness. The problem has gotten worse

  • I'd fight the homeless for free
