Lemmy resembles the old reddit experience so well that they even emulate the old reddit server performance

Question about this, is it just a speedier general browsing on other instances as well? Or just your local posts?

My first thought was my NSFW reddit account... If they didn't already kill it with 3rd party apps, I'd be bummed...

It's far far worse than just that. Contacts are abstractions of the core mission of the team. If you're in a contract to push boxes, you reduce your world to boxes. You don't care about accounting, but if account needs something boxed faster they can't just go to the box people because they are in a different contract. So now you have to navigate the bureaucracy... Now it's emails here, and phone calls there. Adding huge time delays to getting something that would would be much simpler if they were on a unified team with a unified mission.

Is anyone else disappointed that Lemmy is becoming the new Reddit?

I'm generally looking at all, so maybe that's my problem. I am finding it hard to find smaller communities that might interest me, but maybe it's the app I'm using (Jerboa).
Any recommendations? Either specific communities or tips for finding some?

Wisconsin’s Democratic governor guts Republican tax cut, increases school funding for 400 years

Anyone more familiar with how this works? Like, that wording is weird to me. How much revenue they can raise per student.
So is this like, local school taxes? Or like local fund raising? That wording doesn't sound like it's as big a win as the article title makes it sound like?
What are they supposed to do in the year 2425? Raise $140,000 per student?

Wow this is amazing, immediately subscribed to this community. The RetroNet motif really calls to me.
Just found RetroNet.net, it's a shame it looks unmaintained. Sounds like a really cool idea.

I try to be generally positive when commenting, but I'm usually not a poster... Not sure how questioning the direction of the masses is creating drama, but I guess they have spoken on the matter...
