Yeah, I just thought about my suggestion more and one thing I think that has given reddit so much staying power is the fact content sticks around so long, I’d imagine many of us here would specifically search in reddit for reviews or help with something and found a like 3 year old thread with the answer.

So… Pruning is probably a bad idea lol.

Unfortunately threadiverse searchability is pretty bad, assumedly because of the nature of the fediverse with content being copied across instances essentially I am sure its a little more difficult for an indexer to properly handle it, not to mention somehow deciding which instance to specifically link to for a certain thread. On top of that, it wouldn’t surprise me if all the corpo search engines would deprioritize most fediverse sites out of self preservation 🤷

On the “warming them up” that makes sense in theory, but usually if I’m making a rare post it’s to engage with a group of people, if I don’t see the engagement I’m probably not going to go there again to post whatever it is because what’s the point if no one sees it anyway?

In theory this is really cool, but unless you really get into a game and are willing to replay, it just feels bad as a player missing content because of a timer you didn’t know about.

That’s why you got on Lemmy? How did you even hear about this den of delusional leftists.

API apocalypse, stuck around and rediscovered my enjoyment for linux and got into selfhosting. Also become even more anti-corporate lol. I get less content, but I probably was on reddit too much before anyway lol so it’s self moderating in a way.

I grew up on forums and 4chan

Would it almost be better to prune old communities? I agree it’s off-putting to find community for an interest and seeing last activity like a year ago, doesn’t make you want to post since it seems inactive.

One thing about how reddit/lemmy works though is people subscribed (assumedly still active on Lemmy elsewhere) might still see that content vs a forum where no activity means very few visit the site.

Everything having connectivity is cool, I like automating stuff, the issue is it feeding all of your information to a company to profit off of it or worse.

I did, the funny part is instead they literally went with Romney’s plan and still got shit on forever for it.

Trying to reason and play politics with facists doesn’t work, and its long past time they learn that.

Did you know the Democrats actively prop up republican nutjobs (financially supporting their campaigns) because they think it’s easier to win against them? One of those nutjobs was Donald Trump.

You can’t make this shit up

Blaming the voters for rightly seeing the dems won’t fight for them either isn’t helping the situation.

We wouldn’t be in this mess if the democratic party hadn’t made excuse after excuse. We’ve been betrayed over and over and that takes its toll on people.

I still hold my nose and vote D because they’re the lesser of two evils clearly, but I can understand why so many are tuned out.

I strongly relate to your experience, I am currently employed and basically doing my old job + learning devops/coding for our internal site.

I too have set up my own home NAS (proxmox with two computers running as nodes) with LXCs and a VM for HA. Have moved out of the cloud as much as possible and trying to cut ties to the major corporations wanting to profit off our data.

I am a leftist, nearly Marxist and work at a fucking financial institution that I hate because I have to make an income to help support us.

I wish so much I could work somewhere that aligned with my values, and want to quit so badly but I can’t leave us without my income for long and the job market sucks and it feels like learning coding/dev ops is a waste of time because of LLMs even though the evidence that they’re able to do the things claimed is non-existent (they’re helpful for sure but companies are seriously massively over-inflating their current capabilities and making stupid decisions because of it).

I want off this corporate bullshit ride.

If you think we got to this point only because of Republicans… You haven’t been paying attention.

No they’re not the same exactly, but democratic inaction is nearly as bad as it allows this kind of shit to happen.

I don’t disagree with that portion, but the actual software is good. Don’t get me wrong theres a LOT of shitty design decisions with Teslas, but again a lot of manufacturers seriously struggle with infotainment systems not being complete shit.

Red roses too?

Sadly we literally have done that over time and yet here we are.

Do you have a “call police” button in your car now?

Have you ever actually used one? Been inside one?

I’ve heard tesla drivers complain about a lot of things but the infotainment console is far above what other manufacturers do. Thats not because it’s great, it’s because other manufacturers are just worse. 🤷

That’s crazy, glad you’re okay, I never got a fever but was extremely congested, headaches constantly and never ending runny nose/cough/sneezing

Its definitely one of those things you’re told growing up

I’d imagine many of us didn’t go in, my wife and I both got it and it lasted a little over a week for the worst symptoms. Never got bad enough to warrant going to a dr tho.

This but just JF instead of Navidrome

Homie It’s a well known fact that Clinton was buddy buddy with Epstien and Trump, there’s been pictures for decades of them together, him on the flight logs, etc etc.

Its like you think only the latest dump of info is real?
