Posting that article on “how to destroy a decentralized network” in the comments, over and over
Well as long as there’s still people who think that federating with Threads wouldn’t be disastrous, people are going to have to post things that explains why it would and presumably that specific one is a good one 🤷
Those of us who don’t think it would be disastrous have read the article.
Reading isn’t always understanding, I guess 🤷
Disagreement isn’t misunderstanding.
True, but not being worried at all after reading about it happening several times before in extremely similar situations isn’t disagreement.
It’s misunderstanding or burying your head in the sand at best, doing PR work for the ones about to do it again at worst.
which article?
Others haven’t. Better safe than sorry.

“How do I swipe left on swiping”
I’m guilty of that…
Plenty of tropes available to fill up the card:
Lemmy is becoming reddit, reeeeee!
Elon Musk Hate.
Are we still doing X?
My breakup letter to reddit.
The reposting memes and not making their own is just fucking annoying.
Don’t forget “Lemmy feels higher quality than reddit” followed by several hot posts that are compressed and re-reposted memes with pixel densities low enough to count.
And the “I’m glad Lemmy doesn’t have the reddit hivemind” followed by posts with whole threads of comments straight out of reddit “AmericaBad” thought train.
Pretty much, all of these things can be summed up by “suddenly acting better than reddit while acting identically”, I guess.
The ancient memes are great though. Like be honest, you laughed at the stupid 2001 meme
+++ Goldfish memory here, actually have zero issue with the vintage meming.
- well actually this is well documented on GitHub
- Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using an URL instead of its name
- if you were around when Digg…
- lemming
- Lenny
- Margot Robbie
- GDPR
- security incidents
Margot Robbie?
Academy Award nominated character actress @MargotRobbie@lemmy.world!
The only real celebrity on Lemmy.
(Sometimes I get mistaken for you.)
Like what, she really on Lemmy?
It ain’t much, but it’s honest work.
Yeah, right 😂, like it’s really you 😂.
Two wolves
Did you really… forget the beans already??
damn that was annoying for a few days
You’re in memes. What did you expect?
last week beans shitpost was the only thing showing up on c/all
And not pooping
That was last week, beans are dead old man, get over it already.
That’s not meta, that’s just a meme
Beans? I was here for strategies on how not to poop for three days
hey don’t act like its a bad thing, i was getting tired of my home page being beans and only beans
Yeah me as well, it went on for way too long IMO. It was funny the first day or so, but afterwards… not so much.
Ok, I must ask, what are beans?
Legumes
And here i am just posting stolen memes and pictures of life like a sucker
Lemmy devs are/aren’t tankies
What does the
mlstand for in lemmy.ml? I don’t think the instance is based out of Mali…How familiar are you with TLDs?
Yes, I’m aware. My point is why did they pick .ml, specifically?
It’s one of the few free TLDs.
You know, if that’s truly the only reason and it turns out I’m wrong I’ll gladly eat that L, and it would be a relief. I’ve just heard some iffy things specifically about it all.
EDIT: it’s stuff like this that I’m talking about.
It stans for Marxist-Leninist.
Just wanted to make sure we were on the same page!
br, .co.in, and ml tlds must be pretty cheap for people because I see them all the time on threat feeds. ML is indeed the Malaysia tld
Edit: Mali not Malaysia lmao. I also looked it up, turns out the company that owned the tld gives em out for free
A quick Google gave me Mali, which is why I said as such.
But frankly I do not believe it is about being cheap, I do indeed think it’s as the other comment said - Marxist-Leninist.
Not sure why you would favor political reasoning for site that’s not even sorta politically based over economic reasoning (despite it being a free service) but that’s alright you’re allowed to have your own opinions
The devs are communists by political orientation and .ml is selected for a specific reason, not cuz it’s cheap or free. lemmygrad.ml is also their instance, but lemmy.ml was made to accomodate to a crowd that may not share their political views.
Excellent explanation, I wasn’t aware of lemmygrad, thank you for the clarification
You sure are smart if you know it better than the developers THEMSELVES who said they picked .ml for no particular reason.
It’s stuff like this that makes me think so.
I’m not going to click a random link you sent me, esp. considering what’s been going on.
Good try tho lmao
Marxism-Leninism
Source? Or just a haha funny?
No, it’s true. Ask the devs or anyone at lemmygrad.ml, this is the reason why .ml was picked as a TLD. They don’t hide that they’re communists, look at their avatars on GH.
ML domains are also free, for the record - but that makes sense. Thanks again for clarifyin
My brain jumped to “machine learning” initially. I never considered the alternative until explicitly pointed out.
Mali, one of the cheaper TLDs
Also know for having one of the highest malware count for a TLD. I migrated from it a few years ago because of that.
I would assume it is because you can get free (though super bare bones) .ml TLD, though you do have to pay a little if you want some TLD comforts.
Yeah, that’s the exact situation. I personally chose to pay $5-10 per year and use a less sketchy domain for my stuff.
huh… i thought it stood for mainline cus its thr instance the main devs run
lol although enshittification doesn’t really apply to Lemmy, so it isn’t meta
I believe they are taking about the meta discussions, where I have seen this term frequently.
Of course, it is used in the context of Lemmy’s peers and not Lemmy itself.
Where is “Petition to defederate from X because Y?”
Jerboa’s last update fixed alot for me. It is pretty annoying to open the app and see a bunch of post about lemmy. Kind of like opening Minds and half the posts are people circle-jerking to the fact that they are on Minds. Like, cool, I’m here too… now why am I here? Post something interesting.
The free space in the middle can just be “BEANS”
And “How do I block an entire instance”
Please 🙏
Connect and Voyager (formerly wefwef) both support this now.
Ooo wefwef finally renamed itself
Icon contest also underway at !voyagerapp@lemmy.world
Wait is Jerboa crap or something? I would switch but no one has given me a good reason to
[This comment has been deleted by an automated system]
I think it’s quite alright for an alpha. Pretty modern codebase too, if I’m not mistaken
There’s Thunder (slick UI), Liftoff (best if you have multiple accounts), and connect (customizable). They are all pretty different so I’d just look at each of them and see what works for you.
I just installed Liftoff, and for an early access app, it’s pretty decent
