Requiring ink to scan a document—yet another insult from the printer industry
  • The Epson EcoTank got me through med school without any problems. I printed thousands of pages of colored materials, such as anatomy, pathology, and histology pictures, without needing to buy a single book. It was one of the absolute best purchases I've ever made.

  • What's a good book for a complete beginner to learn about socialism?
  • There is this book called "why Marx was right" wrtten by Terry Eagleton. He is a professor of economics from uk. It is an easy to follow explanation of Marxism in general and quite simple to understand. I definitely recommend it.

  • There will be an even bigger influx of redditrors after June 30th. I think we should prepare better this time.

    Preparing Lemmy for a migration influx of Reddit users after June 30th requires some planning and consideration. Here are some steps I think we should do in orther to make things a bit more smoothly this time.

    1. Scalability and Performance: Assess the current infrastructure and ensure it can handle increased traffic. Consider scaling up servers, optimizing code, and implementing caching mechanisms. Monitor the system for potential bottlenecks or performance issues, and address them proactively.

    2. Community Engagement:

      Create a welcoming and inclusive environment for new users. Clearly communicate the community guidelines, code of conduct, and expectations to ensure a positive experience. Assign dedicated moderators to handle increased user activity, enforce rules, and facilitate discussions.

    3. User Onboarding:

      Simplify the registration and account creation process. Offer multiple login options (e.g., email, social media accounts) to accommodate different user preferences. Provide clear instructions and resources to help new users navigate the platform, including a comprehensive FAQ, user guides, and tutorials.

    4. Data Migration:

      Develop a data migration plan to transfer relevant communities, discussions, and user accounts from Reddit to Lemmy. Coordinate with Reddit's API and ensure compliance with their terms of service and data usage policies.

    5. Communication Channels:

      Set up dedicated communication channels to address user questions, feedback, and concerns during the migration process. Consider creating a dedicated forum or subreddit where users can discuss the migration, provide suggestions, and receive updates from the administrators.

    6. Feature Enhancement: (important)

      Identify key features or functionalities that Reddit users value and ensure they are available or can be easily replicated on Lemmy. Actively seek feedback from the community and prioritize feature development based on user needs and preferences.

    7. Promotion:

      Develop a marketing strategy to raise awareness about Lemmy and its unique value proposition for Reddit users. Leverage social media platforms, online communities, and relevant subreddits to reach out to potential users and invite them to join Lemmy.

    8. Continuous Improvement:

      Regularly evaluate the performance and user experience on Lemmy, and make iterative improvements based on user feedback and analytics data. Stay up to date with the evolving needs of the migrated user base and adapt the platform accordingly.

    Looking forward to see the new users and creating a thriving and exciting community together with you all.
