I haven’t been on kbin, but I personally haven’t had that issue on Lemmy.

This is a great site to find instances:
Do they even have advertisers? Tbh I’ve had adblockers on for years I wouldn’t even know.
This isn’t reddit. There’s a clear solution here: decentralization. Aka, like the entire point why we’re on Lemmy in the first place. Join another instance lol.
Another good looking comment from a total stud
I know that everytime I look in the mirror
No I love activitypub, but no it’s not lol
I think the people who say this and think Rust is the second coming of Jesus, just don’t code. You choose the right language that’s needed for the job. Server stuff like this is Java’s bread and butter. As amazing as Rust is, it has proven to not be a great choice for Lemmy’s development.
We’re referring to discovering old posts here, not when you already have a post open.
This is more of a front end thing. Mastodon sometimes revives old content by people boosting an old post that could go viral again. Lemmy’s algo is designed around hiding older posts as they age. I could see this being more relevant in upcoming software like Discourse and phpbb which are adding fedi support. They’re more traditional old-school forum software and I think that revives older content better, as one user commenting on an old post will bring up a thread to the top again.
Fuck those corners while wearing a fur suit, you mean
You know you’re in the strange corner of the internet when this isn’t getting disliked to hell lol
Lemmy has a large World of Tanks game community
Good publicity means more traffic, which means more people for community, which means more content, which means the network is more entertaining as a whole (hopefully)
That it’s objectively false to stir up attention
Your title implies it was directly killed, when it factually was not.
What a bad taste title
Oh shit, I completely forgot about that site
I just shitpost that’s why my name is cum
I’ve never really cared about Flipboard and thought they were just another blog site, but I’m starting to realize they do actually enjoy the fedi and internet freedom
Hard to tell imo. Big tech has a lot of big advantages and disadvantages over us.
Being centralized and heavily funded, it’s a lot easier for them to rapidly create/change new things, for better or for worse. It also means they do a lot of the testing for us. Mastodon/Lemmy formats are figured out from what we liked from proprietary platforms, then we kept the core that made it good. We also don’t need to make a worse user experience by worrying about monetization.
We also have a lot less development, and I won’t even pretend that Mastodon or Lemmy are anywhere near well developed as Reddit/Twitter backends and other software. We simply don’t have the attention and funding to be anywhere near that level.
I don’t think we’ll ever replace big tech, but I just hope we stay on a healthy trajectory where we are alongside them in popularity.
