Good to hear. All the best!

Thanks for sharing about Sublinks. It still has the mouse(?) Lemmy icon BTW. Hopefully, they'll keep the Federation issues in priority. E.g. this (see pic) - I can never see what pic/video is posted on a Lemmy instance. Just this attachment icon and a 'blank'.

They just couldn’t because computers weren’t powerful enough yet

Yahoo and ISPs like AOL tried that. And were partly successful. Yahoo was the 'literally' the home page for 90% of Internet users. In India, ISPs were decentralized but it's only JIO or Airtel now, if you 24x7 service and connectivity.

Hmm. It has never failed me. You're using this, I guess?

I actually find the watch history useful as it has search in it. It's like enabling your browser history On. "What was that video/webpage? I recall the keyword but forgot the name of the video (or webpage)."

Also, I hardly visit the site except for links shared so the home page recommendations don't bother me and aren't of much use to me.

Yeah 20 something - "Sophomore at some Uni".

Don't be so hard on yourself. I didn't level out emotionally until 35. Many people at 40.

calckey dev

Is it that person whose name starts with a K? That fellow blocked my server when I had innocently mentioned that the Fedi software I use also has all the features that they're talking about. Of course, after spewing a whole gamut expletives and abusive words. Certainly didn't miss out on anything.

If I were a user of that server, I would run away - AVOID servers where the admins can't maintain their cool, remain calm and collected and take things personally - think of how they would react if you say something against a decision they make.

There's @pinetta@fedi.software - a Fediverse alternative to Pinterest - if it interests you :)

Para 3 and 4 are pretty much a summation many instances in the Fediverse...lol. Not just those using Lemmy.

For their own sake, hope they don't kill old.reddit.

Never used their official app but only used one 3rd party app, Bacon Reader. I'm not one who likes staring and posting/commenting from my mobile so didn't use that for long.

Old.Reddit with Reddit Enhancement Suite for years to make the site usable

Hello, dear friend 🤝

I'm still there for the obscure subreddits and for users that are there not because of 'engagement' but for the love of it.

Mastodon (also, Mashiro's fork) > Pleroma > Akkoma > Rebased. Quite a journey :D

Raised a few issues for Mastodon too which ClearlyClaire and Gargron responded/provided support.

Next up, it's #Kbin :D
