To anyone looking to donate here is a financial thread made by the admins for this month where they outline where money is going and how much is spent roughly each month (it is a few days old however and donations have increased since then so i would keep that in mind)

From what i understand the karma system was meant to be a way to encourage people to be active early on to drive even more traffic to the site but as it went on it definitely devolved into a popularity contest like you said
The karma system had its advantages in that early on it encouraged people to be active and make the site seem more alive from what ive heard but as it went on it ike you said just devolved into an popularity contest
same here im accually interacting with people instead of just lurking i think the community aspect helps but for me its also thw fact theres less users around so the chances of accually having a decent conversation is higher
Thanks for the detailed explanation i accually didnt know about the man command makes sense though
As for apt and apt-upgrade i didnt accually know apt-upgrade existed but that is good to know as for the shell im not that intimidated by it ive used command prompt plenty of times in windows and when trying other different distros one question i remember getting nvidia drivers installed being somewhat dificult on linux is this still the case or has something changed?
Mainly familiarity to windows and discord not having audio for screensharing im probably not going to switch fully but i dont see the harm in having it on a separate drive on my machine to use
it isnt currently possible to migrate users from an instance to another but there is an issue on github about it so maybe it will get implemented at some point as for posts from a deleted instance im not sure maybe someone else can answer that
I like the idea and think it would be a really good addition and as alyaza said this has been thought aout on the discord it would definitely be nice to see people helping each other instead of controversy like most social media is filled with
i rarely buy physical books as i like reading during breaks or when im waiting on something and its not always feasible to have a book with me i buy books when they are available for a price that will not bankrupt me as a book thats 10 dollars is around 50 ron wich in my opinion is far too much especially as i need money for other things otherwise i simply pirate them
not that big a shock if you consider the amount of work it is to moderate that kind of thing reddit has shittons of money to make sure illegal things are not on the site unlike instances here that run on donations
perhaps in the future but from talk in the discord the admins dont want too many comunities to avoid fragmentation if operating systems ever gets too big and there is a need to seperate it more then it will be done
For me its not so much that its a gimmick or whatever but that it just looks stupid on your face imagine being in public and seeing someone with a flight recorder strapped to their face i like VR technology and i think as it evolves itl change how we interact with media but this is just not it

I read during my breaks or when i have nothing to do pretty much anywhere its why i personally prefer digital books over physical ones
This looks amazing but im going to go rip out my corneas now thank you very much
Same here accually having convesations with people has been pretty fun and ive yet to see anything not civil for now wich is a plus
