I just never got the appeal before, knowing what I knew. And I never cared to acquire more knowledge about Bluesky because I was perfectly happy with Kbin and Mastodon etc…

Now I know a little more about it and what you said makes sense to me. My mind will remain unchanged though until they leave the invite-only era. I may give it a try then and see. Pre-edit: I’ve actually joined the waitlist now because why not.

I’ve been against bluesky since I heard they’re invite only. It just won’t work, maybe future proves me wrong (as it usually does) but I just cannot physically believe in it.

There’s way better and bigger alternatives already (Mastodon, hello?). Mastodon’s federated as well. Everything I’ve known so far that was invite only really didn’t go far.

But I don’t know anything else about bluesky other than it’s a Twitter alternative and invite-only currently, so tell me if I’m wrong? (Obligatory :3)

Picture 1 (the bigger one) was me the whole day at work today, wish I could have been picture 4 (lower right) though :3

Would you rather: have one ball, a big ball, but no more games or two small balls, unlimited balls, but no more balls?

Idc about anything right now I’m hungry af and the only thing I was able to read was crackers fml

Yup, can understand if your library is small, but for bigger libraries that’s definitely the most inconvenient thing you can do.

Speaking from experience because I was basically forced to do it that way when I didn’t have regular internet access yet. My library was longer than 50 days. Just Hip-Hop alone was above 100GB.

I used to find a shitton of music that way, but the inconvenience was real. Worst was music that I had to tag myself for example. Love mp3tag but that’s shit.

I’m unsure sorry, I’ve only ever used it on Linux.

Just gonna drop by to say that I love Crystal

Problem for me is def going to be modding games, have they fixed alt tabbing between games and desktop yet at least? It used to “crash” the game for me if I tabbed out even for a second.

Not a Pixel user myself but I know for a fact that there are current PixelExperience builds for Pixel 4’s

The crazy part about it is, that even if every instance blocked everyone, you could always host your own instance and I think if you host one just for yourself and maybe a few friends or something it probably wouldn’t even cost a cent.

Lemmy.world is the biggest lemmy instance, it makes sense that they attract everyone even those type of people. They don’t understand the concept of distribution, of course they’re gonna go where the number is largest. I wouldn’t go as far as to say it’s the admins fault for the people that went there.

Difference 2 is it’s not really powermodding. At least not from the way I personally understand powermodding. Imo powermodding is when a mod decides to get rid of content they personally just don’t like.

In this case they got rid of a big risk to the instance itself, because, if someone decided to upload pirated content on here it would get federated to all instances that haven’t blocked the one initially distributing such content. Like another user said on this topic, this could be compared to torrenting, only without the direct P2P distribution. The risk of course falls on the people hosting the instances.

Since they host these instances pretty much for free aside of donations, that are not a requirement, and the fact that, like nanometer said, you can just choose not to be part of the instance (and register to another instance), I wouldn’t put blame on the admins of lemmy.world in this case.

Used FlorisBoard for a good while, it’s the perfect replacement imo. I don’t remember exactly but there was a certain feature missing for me so I uninstalled it but it may have been implemented by now.

Wasn’t Brave always known to be shady in one way or the other? Which is why I never get why people say “remove Chrome get Brave” in 2023.
