I could still find the information I needed when it was a serious query, and I could still find sound and sensitive viewpoints on many topics. But, opening a horrible post just to see a horribly distasteful comment as the first response just kept reminding me not to take life so seriously.
What if there are a couple large archive mirrors and the posts on other servers have a life expectancy maybe based on time, but also engagement? Crucial posts could be stickied, but I don't see the need for everyone to hold onto everything forever. Even in the event of a catastrophic loss of the archives, the communities could still live on and rebuild.
What does it take to facilitate this? Do individuals have the ability to help it along, or does it take more resources? I'm new to this but would like to learn.
I can see the purpose of this. I can take a dump in the one on the left while I whizz into the one on the right. That way I don't have to worry about pee splashing up on me when I drop a turd. Well done!
I really hope platforms like Lemmy and Mastodon take off. Just the idea of no single person with control over how we all communicate and share ideas gives me hope for the future.
That's good. To be honest, I felt more at home on Reddit than I have anywhere. Something about the sense of humor that made the other Redditors really feel like friends. That being said, I am extremely excited about this idea of a federated community that cannot be exclusively owned by anyone.
Thank you! I have created a community called !mindmatter. I believe this is the link: https://lemmy.world/c/mindmatter How can I promote this community? Or, will the posts simply show up in Lemmy.world?
For me, that was part of the charm.

Is this metaphorical or ironical?
I have really bad allergies.
Reddit experimenting with blocking user comments and posts. Trials ad-only service.
Does that make it a meter or some universally accepted bullshit?
Imagine raising your children in the privacy of your own home instead of exploiting them to the world.

Yep. Feels like home all over again. :-)
