I know it comes off weird to me because I’m a Westerner, but I wonder what cultural and cognitive benefits can be directly linked to having your language innately require the listener to actually wait, listen, and then respond.
Or maybe I’m assuming it works that way, but when you actually live in that culture and language, you are more likely to predict what is gonna be said so the same kind of foot in mouth moments can happen.
One thing I’ve noticed since coming to Lemmy from Reddit. Damn if the most obnoxious, time intensive, expensive solutions aren’t the most upvoted like I actually am not living paycheck to paycheck and just trying to get my dopamine hit.
Man, I found this in 09 a few months before the 2.0 update. And it had a decade behind it even then. Man I miss those days of looking through random wads on 4shared. I couldn’t even begin to figure out how to find some of that stuff nowadays if I wanted to find it.
I’m trying summit now. I have to get used to certain things like having the ability to hide read at the bottom context menu instead of the upper right, but so far it definitely feels smoother.
I would sooner switch apps then add a total of 1 day of my life wasted over a year waiting one second for every comment I want to collapse.
Yeah I should have clarified Boost for Reddit stopped working, I already had boost for Lemmy since the API stuff.
Awesome, thanks for the reassurance.
Yes, those links did work, and thank you for explaining what mirror did. I just haven’t used lemmy in a while and didn’t understand the specifics, another user went into detail to my benefit.
Excellent, thank you. The last time I used the Lemmy was when the Reddit API stuff was happening, so I didn’t know the specifics. I appreciate your patience in explaining this.
I knew I could link to other instances and see their posts, but I didn’t know that they needed a longer name.
As an aside, am I fine overall being part of a relatively small instance, or as an average user who wants a replacement for Reddit, am I better off having my account located on one of the larger instances?
Like if Lemmy.zip is too small and eventually shuts down, do I just lose my account?
Boost stopped working a couple days ago so I’m now fully on Lemmy. Can somebody help me understand how this works?
So the subreddit made a .chat instance (which my boost for Lemmy app does not open in app), and these are the two mirrors for that one instance? But I feel my assumption is off because they have different posts.
It just started working when I checked it, thanks for the edit though!
Seems like a bad link? Or the site hasn’t updated their certs.
Mullvad is so great in a vacuum, but it seems like every other website has you writing out a captcha or blocking you outright exclusively because you’re on mullvad.
