Absolutely. The ‘hive mind’ here is so narrow minded and shallow that it’s super easy to predict 3/4 of the comments on any given article. Probably because the all the comments are from the same 5 people.

I think about people on reddit complaining about reposts as I scroll past 50 posts of the same article posted to different instances by the same person.

It’s also because there’s sooo much dross and very little content.

N.R.O.R.A.I.R.T.N.? I think you missed the joke.

What do you do with all the time you save by writing ‘u’ instead of ‘you’? You must live a life of leisure and be early for every event!

Both. Odd that you would ask without trying it yourself.

If you mime tightening a bolt, your thumb moves to the right. And vise versa.

Lefty righty, loosie tighty.

Far out man

I think they mean they just took a huge bong rip and suddenly became the smartest person in the room.

Treadles were the first source of power in the industrial revolution. Coal came way later.

Looking at that graph and extrapolating from your comment, you’re saying the industrial revolution started in 1900?

There’s that guy that did that. He said it wasn’t a very good sandwich.

*as this is a youtuber thread, he has a channel. It’s okay. https://youtube.com/@htme?si=qfrFo68rA3Wi4cTL

I’m that level of user that will block the ever loving shit out of everything but not do much to make it better. The problem is that once you’ve blocked everything you have pretty much zero interest in there isn’t much left on lemmy. Still better than reddit though.

Sounds like you found your million dollar idea! Now its as easy as cashing all your cheques! Congratulations!

Yes, but I’m talking about mass adoption. Very few users care, they want to scroll through and see stuff they like. They don’t want to curate and host and delve into the intricacies. Until such time as someone makes lemmy palatable, the masses won’t eat it.

Therein lies the complication.

Sailing. Boating. Sewing. Those are they tops ones I miss from reddit that had active users. Instead we have 7000 communities for linux and pervy anime.

Probably one complication is that the trucks need to be able to drive while the bed is up in normal operation. They have to move forward while dumping to spread the load.

Lemmy won’t catch on until there are groups of communities you can ban at once. Sports, Linux, German, pervy anime… It’s a very rare user who will put up with the absolute dreck of the initial feed and manually block communities until they have a feed that’s marginally personalized.

Then there’s the fact that any communities that are specific to peoples interests are completely empty.
