Yeah, nuclear is to fossil fuels as planes are to cars, safety wise. Sure it’s a huge deal when an accident occurs, but that’s because accidents are drastically more rare.

So this person thinks too dudes bang by smashing their dicks into each other full force? At least now I see why they might be a little concerned lol

I sit in my open plan office all day, dreaming of the privacy of a cubicle

Thank you! Been here a month and a half and I still had no clue how to link communities lol

That makes so much sense! I never understood it, and it became irrelevant before I worked it out.

A tip if you’re used to old reddit and use desktop, check out old.lemmy.world. It as a dark mode like reddit enhancement suite adds to old reddit, and everything is exactly where I expect it to be based on my reddit experience. Since you’re already using a lemmy.world account, it’ll just work for you straight away.

Oh and also, you’ll see that you can list things as “all,” “local,” or “subscribed.” You can pretty much ignore local, and use all or subscribed as your main page.

Oh my God it’s beautiful!

I know there are a couple of other *.lemmy.world domains, are they actually listed anywhere? feels like they would make sense to be added into the starting guide stickied here for newbies.

I too hate it when community focused on Topic won’t shut up about Topic.

Honestly agreed. I hate that we don’t have a good open alternative to YT, but as long as you can afford it buying premium seems like a decent alternative.

Hot sorting normally has some weight put towards new posts so they show up occasionally. I think on lemmy right now the weight of new posts is just way too high.

I tend to stick to top in time period, and use hot as a smarter version of sort by new.

You wouldn’t believe the number of autopsies where they found copious amount of dihydrogen monoxide, but still listed cause of death as “unknown.” I’ve seen teachers promoting this stuff to children! WAKE UP!!!

Protip for when you do need to reference a short like that: just replace /shorts/ in the url with /v/ and it’ll be a standard youtube video, just in a vertical format.

Imo it’s because sites like reddit make communities too open. It’s common knowledge that once a sub regularly makes it to r/all, it loses all identity and joins the vague soup of r/all content which everyone upvotes with no regard for the source.

A lot of people don’t want one big page with all the biggest communities thrown together. They just want to follow what they like and nothing else.

That said, the chat room format of discord is a pretty awkward stand-in for a forum type of community.

I’ve been on Reddit since 2012, but I haven’t quite quit Reddit completely. It fills the same role as twitter now, where I go there to interact with specific communities but never scroll through the front page any more.

Imo continuing to use reddit is a lot better than using Facebook. As many issues as you may have with Reddit as a company, Meta is far worse.

6 weeks? I thought everyone left that dumpster fire 8 years ago

I’m sticking to the apple mode for now rather than switching to a beta style with some font issues to work through, but I’m looking forward to seeing it in a few more iterations!

If you survived the confusing mess that was Fate/Extra Last Encore then you’ll be fine here lol

It would be best to watch at least one of the main shows first, just to understand the lore and setting, but there won’t be any direct plot tie-ins or anything like that.

If you do want to just watch one show for the background, I’d recommend Fate/Stay Night Unlimited Blade Works if you like more shounen-y shows, or Fate/Zero if you prefer darker and grittier shows, with heavier themes. Either one works fine as an entry point.

I hear that it depends heavily on the instance you’re on. Personally I’m thinking of making a programming.dev account and seeing how that works.
