They didn’t switch to USB-C out of the goodness of their hearts. They switched because the EU passed a new law that requires that new smartphones have USB-C ports.

A lot of folks unfortunately think open-source software is much more vulnerable than closed-source software because anyone can inspect it. The great irony of it, as everyone here knows, the opposite is actually often true.

Well, now we know to never buy RGB SSDs.

TLDR: Kitchen utensils made from recycled plastic might contain fire retardants.

I think it would be best to hold off until the Lemmy developers push out an update which solves the issue of having separate communities for the same topic on multiple instances. For example, multi-community feeds or merging instances.

I think you need to try some lighter-roasted, higher-quality beans which were roasted fairly recently and only grind them a day or so before you use them. There are also different brewing methods and coffee/water ratios that you can try.

It doesn’t exactly help that there’s like 5-10 of each kind of thing.

For me, the worst part is actually the duplicate communities. Sure, it's nice that newbies can have these duplicate subs so they don't have to learn how to traverse the Lemmyverse, but it would be really nice if duplicates could be avoided. Like, maybe if Lemmy instances kept better records of communities on other instances.

He’ll move after the first big fart.

This is true. It’s also why nuclear power plants aren’t a lot more common.

In addition to few active users, there's a lot of duplication when it comes to Lemmy communities. For example, there are at least 15 Linux communities across the various Lemmy instances - and that's just general Linux communities. There are four coffee communities, four libertarian communities, three retro gaming communities, five general Windows communities, etc.

The best we can do as users is to only join communities with the most users and maybe ask moderators to delete their community if there's already one with more users and if theirs has very few, if any, posts. It would be really great if it were possible to merge communities, especially ones with few posts. I guess the ones with few users and zero posts could have the moderator tell subscribers the community will be shutting down soon and they should locate other instances with the browse.feddit.de search tool.

Though, I do have to admit that there is an advantage to having duplicate communities across instances, which is that they make it easier for new users, since it prevents them from having to figure out how to get to other communities too soon. Though, every instance should probably have a sticky or something that tells users about browse.feddit.de and browser extensions like Lemmy Link.

Why?

It's especially appropriate, since the actress who played Captain Janeway was in an episode of Cheers!

Some definitely are fascists and totalitarians, like the ones who want to ban birth control. Christofascism isn't just a left-wing boogeyman. It's real. Some Christians are ironically very unchristian.

Meesa thinks you is right!

Yeah, except when you want to do anything with other instances.

“You’re basically just a rabbit, aren’t you?”

Okay, cool. I think you'll also get a kick out of seeing Peri Gilipin and John Mahoney on Cheers playing different characters!

Shit! You’re right! Dammit! Now I gotta go back to Firefox!
