That’s some top tier memeing right there

Now, take out the bullshit that’s tracking you and sending the information back to them to sell, and we’ll be doing something great

Subscribe to all of them. It won’t be a problem.

It’s like if you followed #s of the same thing on Instagram, twitter, mastodon, bluesky, and whatever the equivalent of # is on Facebook, then a reddit sub with the same name. Different populations and user bases, but that’s a good thing.

There’s some degree of consolidation that happens, particularly when one community is on a bigger instance and would be better served by being hosted elsewhere. But there’s not really any barriers to using multiple. If you crosspost, you have better chances of it being seen anyway, and you’ll get access to any responses. If you’re wanting to comment, then the OP that crossposted is going to get your response no matter which ones it’s in.

Only drawback is that your comment in one won’t show in the others unless you copy/paste it. Which is perfectly valid if you want to, but most people would see your comment eventually anyway, so the conversation will still happen if it would have in the first place.

I kinda had issues adapting to it myself, but now I tend to prefer it when communities are spread out, because every instance has its own vibe usually. So you get different kinds of discussions than you would if there was only one community on one instance.

Some subjects end up needing a single community just to make it easier to find, but it’s pretty rare imo.

Well it is a little different because it won’t include instances your instance is defederated from.

But what you’re wanting is essentially why subscriptions are there

That being said, an instance curated feed alongside the all feed and local would be a cool option.

Using your example, literature.cafe having an admin selected feed of communities relating to writing would be awesome.

But, there aren’t actually many instances where that would be useful, since there aren’t that many focused on specific subjects.

The all feed is there for everything federated, and that doesn’t need to change. It’s a big part of how and why the fediverse is so cool. So fucking with it is a bad idea. Adding in options is nice, but the lemmy development has a roadmap that’s pretty focused on functionality and stability, so don’t expect this kind of addition soon

That’s some silliness right there.

Using lemm.ee is using lemmy because lemm.ee is lemmy software being hosted on their hardware, and the activitypub that’s part of lemmy connects everything.

If you’re going to try to be pedantic, be right

Trebuchets are for nerds, what with all that calculation and such.

Bullets go brrrrrrrrrr

This is utter bullshit.

Everyone knows that 45acp is superior to 5.56 for this use

I’ve been saying that for a couple of years now. They started fucking with third party ink at least a year ago

Look, I’m not saying there’s going to be jizz everywhere, but there’s going to be jizz enough places that it might as well be everywhere.

Watch out for ceiling fans and vacuum cleaners

LTOL for life, yo!

It’s kinda weird though. Mastodon can have a pretty high character limit, on par with a reddit comment length.

The instance my author account is on has it set to a much higher limit. Enough so that I can post a short story in two, maybe three sections.

If it’s the lowest possible character limit that’s the problem, they could definitely get around that with damn near zero effort.

Which is whatever, I get that streamlining social media reduces time costs, I’m more questioning the one they chose in terms of how much upkeep it’ll be compared to other options. Reddit is going to have a lot more bullshit to wade through.

That’s the best gif I’ve seen this year

Well, if you’ve never been hit in the face by a balled up shirt after calling out your partner’s sister’s name as you bust deep inside them, you don’t know the danger involved in jersey knit fabrics

You forgot one bottleneck. The bottleneck.

If you can get a copy of the apk, it still works fine. Might have to jump through some hoops on some Samsung devices though. They started bring dicks about old apps. But they work fine, it’s just getting it installed.

It happens

Yes, always irl for me which I had stated previously.

I’m talking about humans in meat space saying the dot out loud. Because that’s what the comment I was responding to seemed to be about.

It kinda varies for me.

.ee gets referenced less for sure. The folks I know that have used lemmy longest will do the dot ee, or double-e. Noobs tend to fumble with it, as in “lemmy with two ees at the end” and eventually go with whatever they’ve heard spoken most.

But .ml always gets the . I believe that’s because there’s no shorthand for it verbally. Mull? Mill? Mall? Too many options for most folks to bother trying.

Irl, people actually do say .world, .ml, .whatever, when the stuff before he dot is lemmy or close equivalent, and the conversation is about instances.

As in, “yeah, I had an account on .ml, but they be trippin, so I moved over to .ee”

But instances like the one I’m on just get called by what it says, or like blahaj, just by a single part.

Yeah, exactly. This isn’t news.
