Hopefully these things aren’t just replaced but one can hope
if you listen closely you can hear the beans coming our way

I’m OOTL and I think I’ll just sit this out.
I’m fully in the loop and it still just makes me think of omg sO teh r4nd0m!! memes from 2005
like, maybe we’ll revisit ragecomics next lol
because we’re taking the internet back to 2003 and that includes omg teh random posts being funny again *holds up spork*
yeah, I had some ones set up like months out, it was always fun getting those random reminders. There’s a similar bot on discord, at least
You can subscribe to kbin “magazines” just like communities from other federated lemmy instances too, so you can view them all through lemmy.world or whichever instance you’re on
and now they’re advertising stuff like subscription tiers and server shops, which makes me feel like they’re using a completely different service than I am
well, they hired thousands of devs in the last few years, only to direct their efforts to self-hosting videos, chat features, customizable snoo avatars you can sell NFTs for, etc. (you know, things people wanted)
so I can understand the loss potentially growing in recent years, given what they’ve been spending on
largest tech community in the fediverse
TIL. I assumed between lemmy.world, programming.dev, infosec.pub I’d had my tech feed basically covered
It leans very heavily towards snark and very rarely towards empathy or interacting as though there’s actually a human on the other side of the screen.
And yeah, that’s exhausting. It takes very little effort to not be mean to strangers, but it seems like an impossibility for so many people online these days.
oh, that’s really neat. thanks for the link!
yeah, agreed, I’d love something like that for the fediverse. Honestly, it feels like accessing various communities from different instances would actually feel more natural with it all being fed through the terminal for some reason.
Sorry, not an answer to your question, but what’s rtv?
Feedly is the one I use, it’s very nice having the news widget on my phone home screen that’ll periodically auto refresh with new stories
but they don’t seem to be getting updated in Lemmy.world.
I think that’s something to do with the version of Lemmy that .world is currently on, so that should hopefully be resolved relatively soon.
3 is the biggest thing about pivoting more towards Lemmy / traditional forums for me. It’s been really nice feeling like I’m not drowning in a sea of trite idiocy and unempathetic rage every time I open a comment section. It’s genuinely refreshing to feel like I’m actually engaging with normal people again.
I just use both now, honestly. I don’t really use the big subreddits because the users and quality of conversation feel like they’re actively making me dumber… but there are smaller niche communities that don’t really have a viable non-reddit alternative yet, and I’m not willing to let one greedy man force me to give up on a part of my life that I really enjoy.
