  • I’m fully aware of that thanks, I was responding to:

    The moment you get actual content creators to move off twitter and provide their content on mastodon, I’m deleting it too.

    And saying from the perspective of a content creator, that’s an issue that’s hard to overlook. So mastodon won’t get to that point of having all the content creators if there isn’t something to help them share their content. I don’t know what the solution would be, maybe a separate feed with an algorithm that people can switch to if they want.

    Edit: and the antisocial comments below is why mastodon will never take off with the larger population and therefore never really compete with Twitter, Threads, or BlueSky for content.
















  • Yeah, when Digg did the dumb thing all those years ago Reddit didn’t start eclipsing it for another two or three years. This feels very similar to that time tbh. Lemmy will get there, but I imagine it’ll take longer due to its fragmented nature scaring some non-techies so I’d guess four years and we’ll see numbers to rival Reddit. If you care about that, I kind of like the smaller communities, honestly.

    Too bad there’s not a RemindMe Bot on Lemmy yet, this would be perfect for that lol


  • I get it, my sister got bugs in her home before from a hoarder neighbor and I’ve known somebody who had to move due to a fire caused by a different hoarder so I understand why they’d want/need to do this. But I feel like this falls under the inspection notification laws, at least my state has it where they need to inform you 24 hours before any inspection. So they should’ve sent out a notification 24 hours before flying the drone over and it would’ve been fine IMO. I’m not saying this guy was a hoarder either though, the insurance company wouldn’t release their photos so we can’t say if that’s actually the case one way or the other. But I’m fine with them using drones tbh.


  • I’m not sure why this three-year-old post is showing up now, but uh, if there are subreddits you still want to use after migrating to Lemmy you can set them up as an RSS feed. It’s so much better and you don’t give their site additional engagement or clicks. You can even click the article link from your RSS reader without ever having to go to Reddit. The only subreddit I still use is for my local metroplex/city, since there’s not enough of my neighbors on the Fediverse yet. But now I can see every post as it comes in so I can keep up to date with what’s going on with where I live and find out about deals and sales.

    You just take the URL for the subreddit and add “.rss” to the end and that’s it.

    Example: “https://www.reddit.com/r/SubredditName.rss
