What Happened to lemmy.fmhy.ml? What Happens if an Instance Disappears?
I think that handling federation by domain name is, in a word, whack.
It should be verified by GPG keys instead and be domain/IP agnostic.

Fuck nvidia.
I upgraded to a 6700xt from my 1660 and AMD has absolutely no problems in my system. It's amazing.

What should we do about Threads?
I have already blocked threads on my household instance. I decided that I don't want to have to trust major instance admins to take the same things seriously that I do.

Is Lemmy THE reddit alternative for you? Are you thinking about moving somewhere else?
At this point I like Lemmy more than I've ever liked Reddit. I tried Raddle too and it was fine but I prefer Lemmy.

What operating system do you use on your main computer?
I use Arch on my laptop, gaming PC, and my arcade machine. I hate windows so much and haven't used it at home in years.

Will dessicant actively dry wet filament?
I used to dry shrooms in a tote with a bucket of damp rid, it's not exactly the same but they get dry real fast. I suppose it would work for filament, too.

What are your thoughts on Wren, a for-profit company allegedly acting like a non-profit?
Only time will tell, of course, but I can think of very few times this has happened- my one example being Dr Bronner's Soap Company, and if I'm wrong about that please tell me so I can stop using it as an example. Most of the time, chasing profits leads to ultimately sacrificing the very people who's backs you built your business on at the altar of the Almighty Dollar. I hope I'm wrong about Wren but for some reason I doubt it.

Are you replacing Reddit with Lenny?
I went all in on Lemmy and honestly am having a better time than I did on Reddit.

I really want to like Lemmy
I mean, you're being realistic, and nobody can fault you for that. The jank is going to be too much for some people, they'll come here maybe but won't stick around. Other people will come and think that the positive aspects are more important than the negative ones and they'll migrate.
I'm a FOSS nerd and advertising makes me physically sick, so I'm more than willing to put up with the frustrating things about Lemmy.
My one advice is, if you want to see more content then post it.

I'd never heard of that, just looked it up and it looks pretty sick. I have a Pax 3 that's fine but that looks a lot better 🤔

Ive used Bronner's exclusively for years, even brush my teeth with it. It's amazing. But it's soap, not detergent, so it's probably different than what you're used to. When I wash my clothes with it, for instance, I run a quarter cup of vinegar in the fabric softener spot to eliminate the soap residue.
If you were I, I'd keep giving to the Conservation Fund. But I'm also going to watch this thread, maybe we'll both be surprised.

At what point is it no longer a mini?
This seems like sophisticated terrain to me rather than a mini. Very cool piece it looks amazing
