I all fairness, Hitler didn't get the opportunity to add atomic bombs to his playbook. He tried.

That was genuinely interesting to watch. Dead end orphaned articles make me sad now.

Hmmm… Maybe you’re in the comedy scene and hear the arguments. I have just heard it talked about on podcasts and I’ve never heard them say it’s about stealing material. You’re right, that makes no sense.

It does make sense that you don’t want your act spoiled. So if you have some good heckling material to show that you’re funny, share that.

Nah, she knew what she married.

I always hear comedians release their heckling stuff on YouTube cause releasing their actual material spoils their act for them.

He started it off by saying Kanye caused him to lose a huge part of his career. Then went on to say he quit because of Kanye. That was my first clue something was off about this dude.

I DONT GET ANY OF THIS

Me-first politics is so convincing to so many people. And so easy to manipulate to benefit the powerful.

In America, Republicans I know would call Trump’s tax a great achievement because they got $50 a month in tax breaks. Meanwhile corporations and the mega wealthy were the only ones really benefiting from it.

I wonder how long till everyone was dead. And what would be the last living species.

We definitely have different use cases. I’m looking for the exact same thing I had on Reddit, but on a platform controlled by people that won’t sell our user experience for share prices.

Doesn’t mean I want the Nazis and homophobes here as well. But the content I enjoyed on Reddit is what I would want here. Not just fun memes and news stories, but niche communities and the great comments you’d get from Reddit.

Sounds like you didn’t like what you had on Reddit and are looking for something different.

Pennsylvania moved far to the right in 2024. He’s probably just trying to keep his job. Primary him with an liberal and we’ll end up with a republican in PA. Same thing happened with Joe Manchin.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. There’s some articles that go into how much of a hindrance he was to the actual creative process of Rick and Morty, which I found surprising and disappointing.

Part of what makes Reddit so great is the huge community of content creators. Both the posts and comments. Lemmy has slowly been catching up, but still is far off.

Defederating from large instances will just result in lower quality content for those instances. I would hope there’d be a better solution, but I’m not smart enough to think of one.

Maybe the secret is to let each instance control their own sorting algorithm. They keep getting the content from the large instances, but control how it gets brought to the front page. My guess is this would be no small task, but that would definitely make it difficult to game the algorithm.

I’ve been here a while, and don’t have any desire to check out other instances. I just know that if Lemmy.world goes under, or its management starts fucking around, there are plenty of places I can go.

Leaving Reddit was not as simple.

I love it, but I fear for the day Lemmy becomes so popular that it is worthwhile for the corporate bots to begin gaming Lemmy’s algorithm to dominate front pages. I don’t think Lemmy is prepared to defend against this.

Man, my view of them in 2019 is sooo much different than my view of them today.

If they’re coming from Reddit, they probably expect a little negging.

It brings May flowers

I never played it. I didn’t think there was driving. Or that it was made for kids
