Hey, I am one of the former mods of /r/startpages (quit a few days ago since I don't use reddit at all anymore). Unfortunately I'm not sure if it's possible to send out a mass message to subscribers. I was hoping the private subreddit message would be enough to get the ball rolling over here but I guess I was wrong.
I was on /r/startpages since it's conception and know it took a long time to grow the community there as well. I do believe we'll hit a good momentum over here eventually but I am open to suggestions on growing faster.
I started a job during the pandemic that doesn't even have an office in my province so I'm not going back to the office. I'm super happy about it, I can't even picture myself being in an office anymore. I have so much more free time without having the commute and being able to do chores while on the clock
Yeah this is why I'm not a big fan of sites that have "Free Speech" as their number one thing. You can't tolerate the intolerant and freedom from hate speech is more important than unchecked free speech.
I think self promotion is alright sometimes like in the case where someone writes a really detailed technical breakdown of something. It's easier to format complex subjects on your own blog than in a thread. I totally agree if the entire purpose of someone's account is to boost their own website though
Yeah I am. I know there's a way to filter out keywords and I'd do that but I would still like to hear of any major developments. I just don't want to hear the same stories repeated over and over again
they think they're the centre of the country and ate better than everyone else,
lol this does not apply to Ottawa (Canada). We hate ourselves and know that most of the country forgets we exist. Even the leader of our province forgets we exist 90% of the time
I assume for Meta's platform they'd just get defederated very quickly from others. I think it actually could be a good thing in regards to introducing average users to the fediverse (I say this as someone who despises Meta)
Beehaw is defederating from sh.itjustwor.ks and Lemmy.world.Personally I think it's silly to be upset over it considering defederation is one of the selling points of Lemmy.
Beehaw is just going for a more curated experience which I think is completely fine. I'm sure once they have more moderators they'll consider refederating anyway.
Agreed. It's the one thing I kind of worry about with the fediverse. I don't want to lose my account and subscriptions if and when the instance I signed up for gets shut down due to lack of funds

If there's a bug in the UI that allows this to happen, there's a bug in the backend too. It looks like they're working on both though
I'm on the beehaw matrix and that is the reason. They're entirely down as a precaution until they can update

yep! Exactly like a subreddit
Nay
That's unfortunate. A lot of bots have beaten them but it still stops a lot of low quality bots

We don't want to become Voat

Have you tried DualSense controllers? What do you think of them?
Looking forward to it in 10 years when my company finally moves off 3.8!
Oh yeah now it makes sense. Not sure why I didn't understand haha
What do you mean by that?
Ublock origin is considered the best afaik. It even supports Android Firefox

We're probably still a few more special edition releases away from hearing a launch date
