  • Sounds like good advice, stick with what I'm on for now (lemmy.world) and see what smaller instances appeal to me as I explore. I'll probably end up doing this.

    I'm also realizing from your post that the All feed is different from instance to instance? I thought it's basically everything from all federated Lemmy instances.

  • Then I hope the answers are enlightening to us both! Takeaways so far are just choose a smaller instance and see if you can find one that specializes in your specific interests. But making sure it's an instance that will be well and reliably run is the part I can't figure out yet.

  • Yeah, since I've joined lemmy.world has been down quite a few times so I can see the problem of too many people jumping onto one instance. Just figuring out how to find out if a smaller instance is both reliable and stable as you say... Not sure what metrics I can look at or if such metrics exist

  • I do feel like looking for a small instance is better from what I've read so far, but this is the first time I've heard control over my feed being different by instance, outside of instances defederating.

  • You're giving me 4 Chan flashbacks.

    Still not a meme

  • You're confused, and therefore, according to the post, gay.

  • And now I get it. They got me

  • I imagine this having practical usage in maybe keeping things like sensors working in a plumbing or caving kinda context considering the low power currently created. Awesome!

  • I love it when my students outsmart my questions like this, honestly shows good intelligence and problem solving. Also encourages me to write my questions/prompts with more precision.

  • I love Into the Breach as well, but it keeps kicking my ass XD

  • FTL: Faster Than Light, a pixel sci fi rouge like where you manage a ship and crew jumping point to point on a mission through space. I keep coming back to it and it's always fun. There's an amazing mod community that I'll just starting to explore as well

    I rarely hear people talk about it but whenever I do, it's nothing but love.

  • A little extra and they'll pump higher quality sewage in.

  • Joined during the pandemic lockdowns to keep myself sane, was a pretty intense raider for a while, even doing ultimates, but since going back to the office I mainly just do Roulettes and some Deep Dungeons, occasionally doing Extremes and trying out the Savages.

  • My partner changed from Viera male to Lalafell female, making super cute portraits for every job, specifically to farm comms and yup, it works.

  • I first encountered him through the "This Week In Tech" podcast where he's a frequent guest. I'm not sure what he is off the top of my head either but he's brilliant

  • Can't wait for the boost app! I'm new to Lemmy and using desktop only until Boost is ready.

  • For me, I was looking at the "All" tab on a different Lemmy instance as I was figuring things out and noticed basically everything was coming from Lemmy.world, so I created an account there to be my main one, for now at least.

  • It's so common there's even a term for it now, "enshittification"

    To quote the article that describes it:

    "Here is how platforms die: First, they are good to their users; then they abuse their users to make things better for their business customers; finally, they abuse those business customers to claw back all the value for themselves. Then, they die."

    Source: https://www.wired.com/story/tiktok-platforms-cory-doctorow/ The source is about TikTok but the author has gone on to describe how this applies to basically every modern tech company in various interviews.
