Something has gone horribly right here LMAO.

Oh fuck off

Bring the chaos!

If they have the parts they’ll have the cars together. These are the same mechanics that can take a scrap heap from FP3 and have it on track for quali a couple hours later.

I think it’s something that more people are going to have to decide is a problem to make major headway. There’s a lot of instance tribalism on Lemmy and I think that makes people reluctant to consolidate right now. One group is complaining about instances that are too large, another that more communities should be folded into one place. Both can be correct, but it’s a hard sell after people have invested time and effort into another space. In time people will either adapt to checking multiple communities or they’ll come around to share your point of view.

Have you considered asking the similar communities to link to their counterparts in the sidebar? At least that way no matter what one you discover first you can find the rest pretty easily.

Things have felt pretty damn good around crazypeople.online but lets review-

!eternalplaylist@crazypeople.online Still tops the list. Last week we had just over 100 subscribers, this week we’re sitting at >160 and the activity around the community shows it. Fucking bravo everyone. Legends, all of you.

!weedtime@crazypeople.online Has a mirror trajectory. Last week just under 100 subscribers, this week we are just under 160 awesome people to hang out with. Activity is up here as well. Great stuff!

!loweffortmemes@crazypeople.online moves up a spot this week from around 60 subscribers last week, up to nearly 90 this week. @Sir_Kevin@lemmy.dbzer0.com is churning out low effort masterpieces like a kindergarten class with finger paints. What more could we ask for? Whenever you guys are done eating paste come show him your appreciation and hang your own low effort artwork on the wall!

!pokemonTCGM@crazypeople.online moves down a slot but still saw impressive growth for our small instance. Last week we had around 60 subscribers and this week we’re over 70. The activity is up here too with weekly trading opportunities (IT’S TODAY!) posted by @Idreamofcheesy@lemmy.world and @ladel@feddit.uk filling us in with news and updates. Come check out the cool stuff we’ve been pulling and maybe pickup a card or two you’ve been hunting!

!autoracing@crazypeople.online is still working on breaking into the 50 subscriber club. With the return of F1 we’ve had more of that type of content being posted, but anything and everything auto racing is more than welcome.

Good thing when my main rig goes down I have a, checks notes, 16 RTX 4090 BACKUP MACHINE.

Alpine is a fucking mess and Flavio isn’t going to make it any less of one. Where Flavio goes there must always be chaos.

They are new comments since the last time you viewed the post.

Fuck yes just what I needed before FP3.

I didn’t renew my F1TV subscription for this season. So far the 🏴‍☠️ life is working out ok. Not as many features, not as much fuckery. Always a trade off.

In a perfect world where traffic and hosting costs didn’t matter it would be handy to integrate the lemmyverse results into lemmy instances when a local user searches for something. With an option to toggle it on/off from the admin panel you’d be able to cover federated and private instances that wanted local only search. I’m sure someone more technical than me could figure it out pretty easily, but that’s a lot of traffic to absorb for lemmyverse.net.

Posts like that are a great resource. Thanks for all the time and energy you put into promoting this place. It’s certainly appreciated.

Part of the problem is we’re fighting an uphill battle. After decades of preaching to people on the internet to use the search we’ve given them one that often can’t actually find things for them without some fiddling. New and smaller instances are particularly prone to this. If the goal is being interconnected as a feature we need better ways to make that connection user friendly and automatic.

🙏

There’s also the argument that people should get used to the idea of not being force fed from one source/community/etc. Redundancy also has its perks.

Lemmy’s greatest strength is also its greatest weakness imo. The decentralized nature makes it much less intuitive to navigate and use when you’re new because it just works differently to what people are used to and commonly expect.

Having multiple communities isn’t a problem if they aren’t dead imo. The problem is a user base that doesn’t have a native way to easily access everything on the fediverse (or even Lemmy) from whatever instance they register on. That leaves us with users who simply don’t know any better when they look for communities with a local search and can’t find them.

I think we need to work on retraining people to search using tools like lemmyverse, or find a way to build its functionality into the default Lemmy search. Consolidated communities only help if people are able to find them reliably and many of the users are brand new and struggle with the transition.
