I guess what I was trying to say is that I am not willing to take up the risk of self-hosting my code or expend the effort to make sure this is well functioning and safe.

I agree, I am not sure if I am ready to make the move myself, but I have ADHD and this post may be just the motivation I need. I am using GitHub as glorified private git server, so the move shouldn't be too difficult. Any recommendations are welcome (thinking of codeberg at the moment)!

Aside from price, I have aspirations of open sourcing stuff this year so some issue tracking and CI/CD features would be appreciated (thought not necessary).

Edit: It seems codeberg is non-commercial, but there is a host for forgejo that seems interesting (https://gna.org/).

(I started a rant about self hosting, then realized it's completely irrelevant but I had already written it, so continue at your own risk)

IMO self hosting is not an option unless you are a sysadmin or somehow have a tonne of relevant experience.

I used to self-host GitLab, one weekend after about a month of being off my hobby projects I tried to login and the service wasn't available. At first, I panicked, I didn't know when my last backup was, but it was a while. In the end, my host was performing scheduled maintenance and a few hours after GitLab was running again, but that incident was enough to scare me away from ever self-hosting anything valuable ever again.

yes! I mean pathological demand avoidance, I literally forgot there is another meaning to the acronym 🤣

Been using Eternity for quite some time. I like it, it's clean and modern, but I get a lot of bugs. Last week I couldn't see posts, then, I couldn't comment or save posts, and then posts were loading but I was seeing posts in communities I wasn't subscribed to. Sometimes logging out and logging in again helps.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streisand_effect

The Streisand effect is an unintended consequence of attempts to hide, remove, or censor information, where the effort instead backfires by increasing awareness of that information. It is named after American singer and actress Barbra Streisand, whose attempt to suppress the California Coastal Records Project's photograph of her cliff-top residence in Malibu, California, taken to document California coastal erosion, inadvertently drew greater attention to the photograph in 2003.

(I needed a lesson myself)

While I cannot think of a better decentralization example, the lack of source code makes me worry this solution would not satisfy the open source software (OSS) criteria.

Not true, I could set up a WordPress blog and start writing reviews. As long as it stays a niche thing I share with a couple of friends online, that "review platform" won't be gamed or flooded by fake reviews.

My point being that closed "publishing" instances can be reliable.

I feel you. There would be times when I would prefer ordering a delivery to serving a plate of food I have already cooked.

Been struggling with eating disorder for the past few years, and the last year I have been trying (without success) to keep a healthy diet. Ordering delivery online is the biggest issue for me.

Buying groceries that I know I am going to throw has helped a lot. The shame of throwing rotten veggies has motivated me many a time to start cooking whatever is left before it's rotten, I view it as trigger to cook. Also, not having groceries can be a barrier to cooking.

I have trouble accounting for all the effort required to prepare a dish. Tasks like washing the dishes, buying groceries, cutting vegetable, etc take time and energy. If I don't plan for those, I will get tired at some point and completely give up cooking.

When everything seems too hard, I try to do something small. Usually, this is washing a couple of spoons or glasses. Sometimes this is enough to trigger my fixation and get buttload of work done. Because, this is not consistent my trick is doing often with zero expectations so I don't get discouraged.

Now, I am trying to constantly build excitement for cooking. It's a new experiment, but the idea is that if I have triggers around me that will remind me I want to cook, it make it easier for me to cook. I have installed a mirror on my living room (I don't like my shape right now, and that feels motivating somehow), and next I will pick some posters to hang around the house.

Thanks for the question, I hope I am able help even the tiniest bit.

omg, I am terrified of this happening to me. I have been looking for a specialist since March. It's so fucking hard to trust someone when most people are pretty much ignorant of ADHD.

Fuck, I am getting older.

I created my account during high school, now I am 25.

To be honest, I am grateful for the journey. I found Reddit when I needed it, I was spending too much time on 9gag and wanted to find something more productive to waste my time on. Reddit was, and still is, more than that.

TwoXChromosomes and gonewildstories are two subs that literally redefined my person.

I haven't deleted my account, nor do I plan to. But, I haven't used Reddit since my birthday on June 12th. I have been into the idea of the fediverse long before I first read about it, and I am here for the long run.

First of all, this post got me a bit worried about your mental health, is it possible you are under a lot of stress lately?

You are expressing something that I have been thinking too lately. Third parties, aka recruiters in this case, cannot be impartial if they are paid by one of the parties involved.

If you have an issue with your employer, you don't go to the HR, you get a lawyer. A person fully representing your interest, equipped with the knowledge to actually do that.

I think the same should be the case for employment seeking. It's not that you cannot build a network of colleagues, keep up with market trends, navigate legalities, and identify whatever new bullshit benefit companies are offering. But, delegating this job to a person/entity that specialises in it would most of the time be better.

Last but not least, I don't think the term recruiter is appropriate, and I believe transitional recruiters are not going to be willing to help you.

Best wishes on your effort!! Please keep us to date, I am interested to see where this leads!!

It's time people from the north start giving climate immigration visas.

I mean look at the curves of that beach!!

stares in "12% of Greek voters choosing blatant facist parties"

I was in the village of Lungern in Switzerland for the day, it was impossible to find anything vegetarian to eat.

For personal machines, I use rivers.

At work we use superheroes.

For hobby projects, cute 4 letter words (it's a challenge), for example bubu and alia.

General popularity is not a good metric IMO. If I like a community, then it shouldn't matter if a million people like or it's only me and my cousin. If the community likes the content, I want to see it.

It's trust between the members of a community.

However, weighted sorting is not a solution too, upvotes counts are not linear. Maybe, quantile sort?

yes! yes! yes! I have the same problem.

My suggestion is to add a view with subscriptions ordered by the selected criterion (i.e. new/active/hot/top) and below each community there is vertical list with posts from that community sorted.

This would allow see what's up with the communities we follow and then jump in those communities if we find anything interesting.

Accepting the ability of self-indentification is one of the few exceptions I would be willing to make.

I cannot support it logically, but I truly want to believe in it.
