Having been to both, I can assure you the rides at Cedar Point are much, much better. Disney World is a theme park with a full experience, such as themed attractions and cosplayers. It’s great for young kids.

Cedar Point has the awesome coasters that thrill -seeking adults will want. It’s more like Universal Studios or Six Flags

While being decentralized certainly creates a barrier, most of the details behind PageRank (and the other algorithms in use by Google) are pretty well documented. If it doesn’t already, throwing in Lemmy as a keyword should soon bring up a Lemmy intense (probably Lemmy.ml or Lemmy.World) as a top result. As people click those links, the results will go higher.

The bigger challenge is that the content you are trying to find isn’t here yet. Those results on the old site were built over years of massive user engagement. Lemmy has barely had a month since people started joining en masse, and it’s still a fraction of what we lost.

TL;DR: Just keep using it and spread the word. The rest will happen naturally

Look at all of the related “risks” and add them up. I’m sure that drowning is a small number, but then add in all of the deaths from scalding, acid rain, poisons (that contain water), etc etc and it eventually gets to be a very big number. Probably in the millions

I boil with salt and a bit of vinegar in the pot. When I’m done, there is a noticeable white coating on the pot, presumably calcium from the egg shells.

So yes, it gets washed.

You mean Musk? Because it seems that whatever insanity that Musk does, Spez wants to copy verbatim

And these are the people who stayed…

True, but Lemmy.world and feddit.cl (OP’s instance) do not block it.

Most are on LemmyNSFW. Note that they won’t show up if you aren’t logged in, so you’ll want to use LemmyVerse to find them and subscribe from your home instance

FWIW, when I see that, it’s usually when I hit back from going into a comment. Reloading the page usually fixes it.

Running Firefox on Android, standard mobile web interface.

Honestly, Spez probably does want that. AI won’t destroy shareholder value when you screw it over. It will also fill in some gaps left by the real people leaving.

It’s complete Dead Internet, but none of that is really a concern for them.

This isn’t just a matter of law, but of technology. Part of the point of these large language models is the massive corpus of raw data. It’s not supposed to mimic a specific person or work, but rather imitate ALL of them. Ideally, you wouldn’t even be able to pinpoint anyone or anything in particular.

(If you’re asking about a different type of AI, then disregard)

True, but getting quiet puts a point on exactly how personal their question was.

Another good one is to horrify them- get quiet and uncomfortable, and say something about how the doctors think you’re infertile.

Assuming these are people you just met, of course.

This really needs to be higher.

Running a Mastodon or Lemmy server is surprisingly cheap. With some specific tweaks and rules (esp. hosting images and video elsewhere), it can get even cheaper.

If your only goal is to break even, then it’s amazingly easy. Roughly 1 of every 20 users contributing $1/month. Adjust the numbers as you see fit.

Or a single, non-datamined ad at the top of the page.

I think every city/location sub is like this. It’s the only one not governed by interest, but of location.

I’m trying to seed my own, but it’s a Sisyphean task. And I know the only way to really get it going is to mention Lemmy IRL.

(Not OP)

I miss the Reddit that was destroyed in June. I don’t miss the Reddit of now, and won’t be going back. But OP is completely right on all of it. Unfortunately, we were all left scrambling for a replacement, and Lemmy has non-trivial barriers to entry for most “normal” people. Sure, those of us that are tech-savvy got through it (and are still dealing with the major bugs and deficiencies), but so much of the old experience just isn’t here.

It’s not the existence of shitposts and memes like 196; it’s the lack of other content. r/HomeImprovement is often cited in articles about the blackout and how big/important it is. Conversely, !homeimprovement@lemmy.world is still just a fraction of the old Reddit community, and discussions are limited and (generally) disappointing. Similar stories about Woodworking, AMA, etc. LegalAdvice (for better or for worse) was one of the biggest subs on Reddit, has just 57 subs on Lemmy. The sub for my IRL city (1 million+ population), which was one of the best sources of local information, might as well not exist here.

There’s no way to moderate that content into existence, and there’s only so much you can contribute to that content to get it started.

It’s not a drop-in replacement by any means. It lacks all sorts of features, details, and community that I lost last month.

However, it does (mostly) hold the same place in my life. And having said that, I realize how pointless it really is if none of that really matters

There’s plenty of good business reasons not to want to deal with these requests. Even if the first ones would be easier to just turn over, the 1000th, or millionth gets overwhelming

Isn’t there some sort of statute of limitations here? 12 years is an awfully long time

Child Sexual Abuse Material, basically the current term for child porn. Nepenthe@kbin.social is completely right on all of it. There is a missing detail that loli (along with a few other questionable/objectionable subs) were banned from LemmyNSFW, and went to a different one that promised to be less restrictive, and is widely defederated because of it.

(Side note: While it can be difficult/impossible to draw the line based on appearances, these were clearly and obviously meant to be depictions of children, and often very young children)
