Thanks for the notice and actions taken. Mostly new user here and when I chose this community while it was primarily as a starting point, a big bonus for me was the transparency and minimalism when making decisions. Kinda like a doctor, "don't do more harm than strictly necessary". The fact that you are doing what current tooling allows you to do and are willing to re-evaluate the issue as the tooling improves, all while placing the community first, for me it feels I chose right.

Not taking a stand is an appeal to default, and because of the weight effect Meta will have thanks to money and resources, this will directly translate to letting Meta harm others.

Me encantaría opinar pero sólo veo un paywall que no he podido sacar. Y eso que estoy usando uBO.

¿Alguien tiene un ruleset para emol?

Yo decidí hacer el sfuerzo de aprender algo nuevo y empecé a dibujar. Hasta ahora puras culebras por que es fácil (son letras S con lengua, ténganme piedad) pero de a poquito, tal vez un día una culebra con alas como estas culebras aztecas y mayas.

You start with a false premise:

An example, if there are like 10+ different communities for “technology”, do I really have to subscribe to all of them just to get the same experience I would have gotten on /r/technology?

r/technology was never the only technology subreddit. There was retro, retrotechnology, who knows perhaps something like bambootechnology, cartechnology, etc. So you never had that experience. You had the same experience you would and do have here, except there it was tinted with a veil of capitalism to keep you submissive. What you are seeing now, is the normal, always has been (insert "always has been" meme). The "big pharmas" of the internet are actually the outlier.

As for the task of "clumping" those communities, I'd surmise in the "content fetching" form that would be the task of a community aggregator, like lemmy itself if eventually a "lists" feature is added, or if communities are allowed to follow each other. Or, if we keep the cross-aggregation separate from the content posting, so that it's possible to do both or either witout requiring a super VPS, maybe a webring could do it. I remember webrings from the 90s. They were cool.

Starting tomorrow we're going to be seeing a new wave of “window shopping”. It'll be interesting to see how many (and which ones) of those do end up staying after, let's say, Jul 7th.

Browsers nowadays have built-in or installable spellchecking, Chrome should be included (IIRC it's installed from their web store). Browsers on Linux and I think also Android can also use the system-wide installed spellcheckers; I don't think Windows has any such capability.

Personally I feel like while World and Rise have been a nice distraction, it's time for MonHun to return to more of its roots. Before World, inventory management and quest management was a relevant aspect of the game.

On a more meta sense, I feel the franchise is starting to get kinda.... brand-isolationist? Or too maker-branded. Like, back in XX/GU we used to have lots of crossover stuff with pretty muh any franchise in the form of not just cosmetics but also weapons. Ace Attorney. Animal Crossing. Some random JPN-exclusive boxing franchise. Dunno, maybe a Japanese car maker. World at least gave us the Witcher and XIV crossovers (BIRD UP!*). With actual plotlines, even! But Rise? We're lucky to get cosmetics. And then there's the lack of cross-save, let alone cross-play...

En Chiquicamata, no vale el truco de la canaleta con tracción orientada a la salida.
