Yeah, same here. Lemmy sort of scratches the itch, but it’s a big itch.

Maybe it’s nothing, but Reddit seems particularly sensitive towards kbin.

Yeah, I’ll admit there is the excitement of having a new toy and figuring out how it all works. That takes away some of the boredom or time I’d be scrolling reddit.

Sadly, Reddit has likely won the short-term battle. But hopefully, this Blackout raises awareness of the need for alternatives. Whether it be Lemmy/Kbin, some up-and-coming site like Squabbles or Tildes, or something not yet created, the seeds of migration off Reddit have been planted. If Reddit has such apathy for its communities pre-IPO, just imagine how bad it will be post-IPO when they are dealing with Wallstreet directly.

It’s his self-assuredness that bothers me most. If his attitude towards his community (or product rather) are this bad pre-IPO just wait until after and they have to keep announcing revenue growth to Wallstreet every quarter.

I guess I’m glad I picked Lemmy.one – the Switzerland of US-bases Lemmy instances :)

Looks like the fix is targeted for 0.18 when websockets are removed. I’m not sure this fix should wait that long though since this issue has both usabily and performance impacts.

I’m not sure if it is truly considered a pixel art game, but I still love Terraria.

The one I think about most often is Hyperion, by Dan Simmons. Specifically the Priest’s tale and the Scholar’s tale.

Keep in mind that the Android App, Jerboa, doesn’t have search functionality yet.
