Stealing isn’t OK, but I always found it a bit disjointed how making “mistakes” (minor or large) at self-checkouts basically has zero recourse. They really do need to be reworked

Yes. God tier meme. I have never been a part of the Reddit lotr memes community, but now you have my sword!
Amazing work mlem team! Using it right now and the profile page is indeed gorgeous!
Honestly this community seems to generate even more useful content than r/piracy did for me. Already I’ve learned about 5 great replacements for rargbto, the beauties of torrent aggregator desktop clients, and awesome debrid streaming for iOS via WebDAV. Great stuff
This isn’t “one or the other” IMO. There’s room for niche instances hyper-focused on a generalized topic like “math,” “comp sci,” “sports,” etc.
But then there should also be a massive generalized instance (hopefully 2 at least so the competition keeps admins in check) that has a little bit of everything and acts as a Reddit replacement. We can have our cake and eat it too.
No one has solved a way to make hosting massive amounts of videos cheap, and this is unlikely to happen anytime soon due to the large amount of data storage and bandwidth required.
So no, even if YouTube somehow becomes even more tyrannical than it is it’s unlikely we’ll ever see it decentralized and federated the way Lemmy is in a usable way anytime soon.
I definitely do find this a little disappointing as I think the Lemmy community is too small at the moment to create unnecessary divides and schisms. Success in my mind is predicated on many communities from Reddit coming to servers and forming a common denominator community that achieves critical mass.
It’s clear to me that some of the communities on the 2 you are defederating from you instance have become more popular and are already the defacto “place to be” for certain subreddits.
All that said, I’m happy that my main server (infosec.pub) has not unfederated from those 2 instances so I am able to still participate on those 2 servers AND interact here on my “main” account. This lets me get the best of both worlds. It’s very exciting to see the Lemmy model working in that regard!
I been hitting new more lately — honestly such solid content showing up on “new” on Lemmy compared to the trash on Reddit
Would love to checkout the code for this thanks for the suggestion
Seems to be working, within 24 hours that community becomes available. Can I do the same for https://lemmy.ml/c/aviation
Hits a 404 now on the link (sh.itjust.works link above), does anyone have a TLDR?
