Sounds like a rogue black hole

Man, I don’t know what I’d do without Aldi. Ironic that the best grocery chain in America is European, when the American Grocery Store used to be such a symbol of U.S. prosperity.
You’re not old until the music you don’t consider old becomes old.
I have mixed feelings. On one hand, Lemmy seems to be finding its groove, and I genuinely feel like I’m part of a growing community. But there’s definitely something missing, and it’s difficult to put into words.
On Reddit, I tended to frequent specific subs, and rarely doomscrolled the front page. But that’s all I find myself doing on Lemmy. Most of my feed is either politics or memes, and nuanced discussion seems rare. New communities apparently have a hard time getting off the ground, and I think it’s mostly because decentralization makes discovery a hastle.
Reddit’s whole purpose is to aggregate content from other websites, whilst providing a central access point. This is antithetical to the very concept of the Fediverse, which is all about decentralization. I find myself wishing for an easy way to aggregate Fediverse content, so that I could access Lemmy, Beehaw, Kbin, etc. all in one place, regardless of whether they’re federated. Really, all the drama surrounding instances federating/defederating is obnoxious as an end user.
The apps are certainly better, though, and in general I’m enjoying myself.
If you’re a fallacious gambler, maybe.
Remember when Nintendo was panned for the name “Wii U”, and Microsoft saw that and said “hold my beer”
There are too many lakes in Minnesota. Sometimes you’ve got to squeeze out the excess moisture to prevent mold.
The only Prime show I can even think of is The Boys, which is worth a month subscription once a year or so whenever a new season drops. With so much competition and so little content, you’d think these streaming services would start offering better incentives for long-term subscriptions. Instead, they keep raising rates. Baffling.
Many subreddits are holding polls on whether they should continue the blackout. For those who are boycotting Reddit, I would highly encourage you to go vote. Even if you plan to leave Reddit for good, a longer blackout will drive more users here.
That’s funny, I just watched a Tasting History episode that advised against death by misadventure.
