How could we convince Reddit subs to move over to Lemmy?
  • There are already some communities with the same tooic, but without much interaction, so I was mainly refering to joining existing ones.

    However, even if that happens, one can simply go ahead and create a new community with normal mod behavior.

  • That fragmentation annoyed me too at the beginning, until somenoe tokd me something along the lines.

    "It's like different reddit subs with each hsving their own mods and rules"...

    So /c/gaming on instance A, and /c/gaming on instance B, would be like /r/gaming and /r/gamingfornoobs.

  • That is what I already do. But I feel like there isn't much going on. Tbh, I'm more of a passive than active participant. Never been a "karma whore".

    I mostly scroll through the feed and chime into topics where I feel I can contribute to.

  • Reddit took the time to get these communities going...

    Sure! But, in this case Lemmy is literally a federated copypasta of Reddit, like Madtodon is of X.

    Therefore, I think Lemmy is already a few steps ahead, due to the existing familiarity how communities/subs are supposed to be used.

    So it's not we're starting from scratch... It's just getting rid of the annoyances of Reddit.

    Take Mastodon/BlueSky as an example. People are already familiar withbthe concept of how to use it.

    I'm just sick of Reddit.

    The communities there seem much more active than the once on lemmy, which is not a surprise.

    However, I oftentimes find myself doom scrolling through reddit, just because of some nonsense BS propaganda, ads, etc .., snuck inbetween of the community posts I'm actually interested in.

    How can we convince the people over there to move away?

    Microsoft Teams is dog shit
  • Lol... It is indeed common knowledge... I was just joking.

    Using Teams as a freelancer with multiple clients who roll their own user management is a PITA.

    I had to sign into multiple browsers in private mode

  • Lemmy Developer removes comment in asklemmy@lemmy.ml for asking Russians if they are being oppressed by their government and if they support the ukraine war.
  • Nope... CPU and memory usage matter as well... if they get exhausted, you get throttling. This also has an impact on server-costs... Why run 2 instances of something that serves 4k requests/second over one instance that serves 9k/s (just an over-exaggerating example)

    A victory for Herbert Kickl’s party would make Austria the latest EU country to register surging far-right support.

    What's a good option for a secobdary phone number with suffixes?

    I'm looking for a service, that replicates the functionality of email aliases, but with phone numbers.

    I'd imagine having one number (99999) which I then could use with suffixes like 99999-1, 99999-2, ... etc for services like WhatsApp, telegram, 2FA, etc... if such thing even exists.

    When's the last time you asked a questions on StackOverflow?

    It just occured to me, that I haven't asked anything on SO for a while now. It might even be years, the last I asked for help.

    Most of the problems I come across were already faced by someone else.

    Do you guys feel the same?
