Thanks for the report. It’s nice to get a recap of what happened in the week. Sad to hear about the CSAM attacks. It’s hard to have nice things online anymore.

Meme answer: rely on porn from one website and wait for that website to implode cough reddit cough

Real answer: I try to limit myself to once every 2-3 days. I’ve found that as I get older, an orgasm takes a lot out of me and makes me much more tired. If I feel the urge to fap late at night, I try to think “nah, I’ll just do it tomorrow morning” and go from there. Finding other hobbies/activities to distract is also a great way to cut back on the fap.

I’m fortunate that I’m at a point in my life where I need to limit my porn consumption. Otherwise, 100% agree

Beans?

Bean

This math checks out. I ran it through the bean calculator using OpenBeanAI. 32.33% of the simulations show these numbers.

Thanks for the clarification! From what I understand, it sounds like as long as all the instances stay connected, the number of communities per instance doesn’t matter, but if a major instance defederates (like Beehaw I think), then you could “lose access” to the communities on the deferated instance. You can still view the content by going to that instance though, so it’s not like it’s the worst thing to happen.

It’s interesting to hear that smaller instances might be faster. I saw some other posts about hosting your own instance for that reason, but I wasn’t quite sure what they meant. I’ll check out some smaller instances and see how that goes. Thank you!

Thanks for the information! I think it makes sense to just pick an instance (lemmy.world in my case) and stick with it for a while. I’ll keep checking out other communities to get used to the platform. Thank you!

Thanks for the background on Beehaw! After reading that, I was able to read more on defederation and what impact that has. I think I have a better understanding, but I’ll continue doing some research. Thank you!
