Nothing happened How dare you fool me like this?!?

C - for fast Charging 🤦

I've been waiting. Finally.

Though it still lacks the mod actions and reports don't have the name of the reporter.

If it means my code won't panic out of nowhere and cause a disaster for me, I am willing to "take a vacation" for my program to finish compiling.

Wdym not discoverable. Lemmy instances have been indexed for years

Assuming most people use Google, when searching for "lemmy", it is the third search before some guy named lemmy and when searching for "join lemmy" (logically) it's the first. So we can conclude that people don't use it because most of the people link to lemmy.world and not to join-lemmy.org. Most likely not everyone searches for "join lemmy" anyways since most people come from Reddit.

I use rust btw.

I mean, all cmake does is run some commands for you. You not understanding cmake errors (mostly) means you don't understand the errors given to you by the C/C++ compiler.

That's extra work to be done when we already have a join-lemmy.org website by the official devs that does what you want. People changing the link in their comments from lemmy.world to join-lemmy.org is not hard, is it?

The reason is simply because this is not the kind of social media people have been using for years. Just like how they "learned" how the centralized web works, they also should learn how the decentralized web works. I'm all for the fediverse to grow but I also don't want ignorant people that don't want to learn anything about the tech they'll be using in here.

Quality over quantity or quantity over quality? Choose.

Why? That's really ineffective and just looks bad imo. That's just a solution to people linking instances to join instead of leading people to join-lemmy.org.

A default option is bad imo. We want a decentralized platform. Distribution will keep the fediverse alive and well. Maybe a dynamic "default" option would be one solution. One that just changes the default option to a different somewhat known instance once the current default option reaches a certain user count. For this to work, you'd need to lead people to join-lemmy.org.

That's what join-lemmy.org does. It asks 2 questions:

• What theme they are the most interested in
• What language they mainly use on the web

I never said "people who don't understand", I said "people who don't want to understand". I am satisfied as long as a newbie knows what the fediverse is, why it is here and what instances are. They are the basics, aren't they?

There's also no fix for the "onboarding problem". That "problem" is federation itself.

Naturally. This is the fediverse, if newbies don't want to understand how it works even a little bit, they shouldn't be here.

And lemmy.world won't shrink. I said "for the time being", not forever. If LW keeps growing rapidly without giving other instances a chance, then it won't be any different than Reddit.

If LW admins really care about the fediverse, they probably should close their registrations for the time being, otherwise every newbie will start joining LW because it is the biggest instance out there.
