This is great! Maybe we won’t need to go out of our way to find old dumb cars now.

Why is there a photo of a stick?

I get it.

Fun fact: the big bang was not a singularity.

Immich is the GOAT! I can’t wait for it’s stable release.

Local send has worked really poorly for me, and so has every program similar to it open source or not. The only network file sharing program that has always worked (mostly) floorlessly for me is AirDrop.

tag studio It’s a file manager designed to use tags instead of files because tags are a much better system. It’s still in alpha and I haven’t actually tested it yet but I plan to use it instead of regular file managers once it becomes stable and well supported.

The olygarch’s have ruined everything again?

This is true.

You might be right, but this would only work to an extent. You also need enough people who are interested in in that niche community, you can’t just put a ton of effort into creating a community and sharing it around and expect it to become popular.

Lemmites, that’s a good word.

I don’t think the community is a reason to migrate away. If you end up disliking the community in lemmy then you are probably on the wrong instance, just chose the instance with the community you prefer.

For me I’m not using lemmy because I dislike the reddit community, Although that might be because I haven’t spent enough time on reddit to hate it. But I am using lemmy because it has better privacy, it is not enshitified and it is not likely to ever become enshitified and it follows the ideals of decentralization and free software.

You’re totally right. Lemmy has no way of earning money outside of donations and the only way to earn money from donations is to make an actually good platform, no one will donate if it becomes shit.

upvoted.

Because there are not enough niche communities on Lemmy. For example as a queen fan, lemmy has no queen community but the r/queen community is thriving with many posts going up every day.

Also lemmy is currently very underfunded and the only way to really help that is by having more people.

I’m not saying I’m very knowledgeable but as your asking for the consensus. I think Bluesky is much better than twitter but it doesn’t properly embody the ideals of the fediverse: that is a decentralized network of instances but it really only has one main instance. It’s also heavily viewed as an alternative to twitter, people who like twitter but don’t like X or the way elon musk is running things so the same people who don’t like twitter go to X and therefore the community isn’t so much better.

But who am I to say this I don’t even use twitter mastadon or Bluesky.

Yes I do. Although I don’t use text generation for writing creative pieces I use it for coding and help in the Linux terminal. It’s not like I was going to pay anyone to do that for me.

I get your point. It would be better to save the money and use it for actually developing the platform because it needs to be worked on.

Matrix is actually really good. It’s my only hope for using iMessages in a cross platform manner, I can self-host my own iMessages bridge.

Since most of my friends use iMessages and they are not super willing to change.

Blender is half the reason I believe in open source. They continue to innovate and compete with companies that have orders of magnitude more funding.
