Yet Lemmy instances seem to be doing great with the massive influx of users!

Agreed. I’ve certainly had a few issues where it appeared I clicked a button, but nothing happens. Or some buttons where you have to click exactly on the text for it to work. That said these are pretty minor inconveniences.

I believe that was just coincidental timing. Not complaining though, because it made it all much more exciting.

Cost of takeout bags, containers, IT, all that jazz,

And then we subtract the cost of plates, dishwashers, chairs, menus, tables, IT for their internal POS and seating systems… gosh, sounds like I should be getting a discount!

Do you really think they plate the food in the back of the house, then turn around and dump that plate of food into a container, and then wash the plate?
No wonder they need to charge extra.

Middle of New England here, eggs are $1.39 a dozen.

This will be possible to actually implement on Lemmy, whereas reddit was closed source, and didn’t really care about their communities.

Just curious how you think you might go about this. Do you plan on contributing yourself, forking, or using the community to influence the direction/prioritization of new features?

100% agree, it’s a real life pro tip kind of thing to add to your daily routine. Also the taste is not bad at all with the flavorings or whatever is in metamucil.

It also has other health benefits like reducing cholesterol!

So it goes.

Don’t you want users to be on the platform as long as possible to maximize ad revenue? If this was just to force people to pay for verification, why wouldn’t they make that tier unlimited? I honestly can’t even believe this is real.
