And see what you think... if it's for you, you can email admin for an invite (which can take a couple of weeks due to backlog) or find another user with invites left to invite you (I'm out at the moment)
I find Tildes is pretty good for this sort of thing, as long as you take the time to actually write something decent behind the post to show you are asking / debating in good faith and not just being an asshole.
From what he's said he's not abandoning it but I guess it won't advance much or as quickly... he's only just said so we don't really know if and how it'll impact things
Same here, currently using Avelon and pretty happy with it... Voyager dev recently announced he'll be working on it less going forward which may or may not be an issue 🤷🏻♂️
Both definitely feel like using "Apollo for Lemmy" though 👍
I still think a Usenet like service would be brilliant and it's a shame there isn't a Lemmy-like service that has that.
To clarify, what I mean is decentralised infrastructure (you go onto the news server you want) with shared content (ie the same was that every Usenet post ends up on every Usenet server, if that server carries that newsgroup) - it gives all the advantages of federalisation (don't like your server, just go to another, you lose little or nothing) without the disadvantages of unintuitive discovery and fragmentation.
There was some moderated groups, the group name usually ended in .moderated.
All it meant was somebody with the moderator role on that group had to approve every post... only thing I never understood is how one became a moderator on those groups 🤷🏻♂️
It's weird with Big Bang Theory, when it first started me and my friend circle loved it, thought it was brilliant but yes it did lose something after a few seasons.
But online everyone just seemed to hate it - could it be because we're British and it just landed better with us..?
Original Scrubs was one of the best shows ever made in my opinion - great cast and chemistry, genuinely funny whilst also bringing in the drama and tragedy of a hospital and it's patients, great writing, kept up momentum until the end (the original end not the crap that come after), great acting, one of the most faultless TV shows ever made.
Depends on the communities... quite often they consist of one or two users (or bits) reposting old or current Reddit posts.
And certainly for more niche topics the communities tend to be dead.
Quite often there is little commenting or conversation.
The communities with the most conversation seem to be about Lemmy and the Fediverse...
But yes there are a couple of decent communities in my Home feed, but the whole needs to grow to get it to a tipping point where it provides an active and diverse (in topics and conversation) community.
Take the Keane Reeves approach to having a relaxed life - don't have any arguments, to paraphrase him "Two plus two equals five? OK great, have a nice day, see you around!"
Doing these things is not easy and may take some practice on your part, but for me it boils down to the following process:
be honest with yourself and others, and own up to it, don't try to pretend it was somebody else's fault. Apologise to those impacted if you need to. Accept the consequences.
figure out what you can learn from it - not necessarily the specific details of this mistake but what you can do next time in similar circumstances to avoid making the same sort of error.
stop wishing for a better past - it won't happen, so move on.
It's own thing... and it's definitely trying to not be the same as Lemmy, Reddit etc
