I go with New personally, though I don’t subscribe to all that much - I imagine that it would be a bit less pleasant if you’re on a hundred different communities.

About 15 years on, I’m still so happy I got good coursework marks for the route-finding equivalent of a bogosort. Picked a bunch of random routes and pick the fastest. Sure, that guy who set up a neural net to figure it out did well, but mine didn’t take days of training, and still did about as well in the same sort of execution time.
Aah, DevOps as a separate role… Now that’s a dream I can get behind…
Had something along these lines - a mail server that ended up used almost exclusively for sending automated internal emails. We’d migrated to a third party for email sending because managing DNS etc for clients got pretty painful. Mail server got removed by the tech lead and repointed to our third party mail provider without telling anyone, and 3 days into the months we’d hit our billing limit, on the lead’s day off. Turns out that one service had been sending an order of magnitude more email than all of our other services put together, as someone had been using email as a logging method.
That was a… fun day.
Is this a surprise? User retention is hard, and I’d expect this to hit even harder as time goes by. It’ll keep going up until the point where user growth matches attrition and I’d guess in the early days of a social platform, it’s going to take a while for background growth to increase that much and attrition will be pretty high given the lack of attachment.
Glad someone made this point. My next printer will definitely be a tank printer. It’s basically flipping the business proposal back to “pay for the printer up front” instead of “pay for the printer whenever you buy ink”. My current printer was cheap enough that I basically spend enough on ink to buy a new printer every few years, given degradation of cartridges when they’re left after opening.
That’s 102 stars more than my best… Nicely done :)
The most interesting part of this personally is the murky nature of “hosting” in the fediverse. This sort of thing could happen, bit I think it’s likely to lead to defederation. Content is easily argued as being “hosted” on any instance where that content ends up getting viewed. As such, anything of dubious legality is a surefire way to have site admins refuse to associate with you.
As a self-hoster, I attempted installs of both. They both had somewhat broken installation guides for Docker installs. Spent a night failing to get kbin running and pivoted and for Lemmy working in a couple of hours. Wish I had some big fancy reason, but kbin was just shortly more of a pain to sort.
The protocol would seem unlikely to satisfy the concept of “necessary”. It’s entirely possible for the protocol to be impossible to implement whilst not complying with GDPR. Might require the development of something more sharded - data pulling in real time, etc.
An excellent choice of picture - many thanks.
I’m too lazy to find a picture of a spider for this joke - this exercise is left for the reader.
In the 13 years I’ve had a Reddit account, I made 40 comments, and 4 posts.

Now I wouldn’t want to be one for extrapolating from data of different timescales, but…
I, a real normal human person, would consume the turtle with my regular bone teeth, in the usual fashion.
… but every page becomes blank just before you touch it.
Once you throw a brick through your window, it becomes an ex-window system, and then we’re all good.
As a JS developer, I prefer to use semicolons for indentation.
I really want the Vim/VS Code one - as someone who professionally devs in an MS stack, but would choose Vim as a primary text editor otherwise… it speaks to me deeply.
LMS has been on my list of things to check out for a while, though looking at a few other suggestions, mopidy is looking like a strong choice - if I can get it set up both look at Jellyfin (starting a slow migration already…) and accept streams over DLNA, then it should cover a good portion of what I’d want.
I’d get in the car and start driving. I’d go and have the conversation I’ve been afraid to have for years
… or I’d be paralyzed with fear like I’ve been for the rest of my life.
… or if I’m being honest, I’d most likely grab a bottle of tequila, fall off the wagon, and find out what I actually want to do that way.
