That's what xmpp is. It was embraced by Google and Facebook and killed.

I showed my 7 year old. She was very amused and still does not believe there are any dolphins.

The are so many bad actors in superstonk and other gme subs they do not want anyone to move or splinter off.

Keep making noise in there and people will start moving over.

Lemmy is less private than reddit. With reddit your comments exist on one server, with lemmy by design for they are spread across different servers in the fediverse and can remain if you delete the original.

Think of it like email, there's no way to recall the email once it's sent and same with your actions on lemmy.

Lemmy is opensource, you can see and get a copy of the source code here. https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy There's no development cost because all developers are volunteers at this stage.

For each instance that depends on the admins running that individual instance. The instance I use is being sponsored by a NZ company that are providing the admin's a free virtual server to host on.

Best is so subjective.

I am running pivpn, pihole, all the arrs, jellyfin, gitea and rundeck.

I found I had aphantasia as a flow-on from something else I was investigating.

I have known for a long time that I had trouble watching movies because I lose track of who the characters are. My wife started watching Married at first sight and I got really confused with it. 3 of the ladies had the same shaped face, hair style and colour and I could not tell them apart at all. I searched on Google to find out why and found about Prosopagnosia.

Reading about this it mentioned it was common with aphantasia. I kept reading and it sounded more and more like fiction. This idea that people could see images, make sounds, imagine touch and actually feel it all. I asked my wife if it made sense to her, and she just looked at me like I was mad.

Doing more reading since, I've discovered I have SDAM as well as autism. Sometimes life would be amazing if we got an instruction manual for our minds.

One big question I have is where is the money going?

Mine is large enough to be a capybara.

Did someone say fire?

I use kubuntu for work. At home I have a mix of centos 7 and ubtunu server.

I thought that was the same damage working at a desk that does not fit can cause

I have no minds eye at all. There are no voices in my head aside from mine that I can control, no pictures, feelings or other senses.

I pick at my fingers as well, generally when I'm tired or stressed.

I have two currently. I love painting miniatures, I work from home and will do it during my working day when I need a break.

My other fixation is a friend of mine who came back into my life recently. She's amazing and knows what's happening. I have a partner who is also amazing and understanding.

It's different to that, I experience emotions and can express them in real time. However, after if I think back to a memory the emotion is there but like a line written in a book. 'I was having fun and happy...', but thinking about that memory will not give me a happy feeling. Talking with my wife she can re-experience the emotion when she recalls a memory.

My memories are like lines of knowledge in a book, everything is a fact and stored as such. It makes me amazing at remembering knowledge, facts and how to do things.

I know lots of stories about my kids as they're growing up, and yet I cannot recall/remember what they looked like as little kids. I do recognise them most of the time in photos.

I'm no longer a bot 🙂

When I check the post I've linked above it only has my two comments and a single reply in one thread.

Checking that same post directly on lemmy.world there are 29 comments across 8 threads.

I have a home server and a laptop. Both run different versions of Ubuntu

What's the problem with this?

If they can moderate that many groups to the standard each community is happy with is it an issue?

I'm not understanding your concern. If there's a powertripping moderator that's causing trouble there are options. The group can split and migrate elsewhere, just like the reddit migrants have who came here.

The fediverse is much harder to consolidate tightly. There are 5 New Zealand communities for example spread across the fediverse currently. One is large and the rest are tiny. If the mod/admin for the large one started being a dick the users would move elsewhere after a lot of whining. This was not as easy on reddit because there could only be one /r/newzealand. Currently there is [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], New [email protected].

If there was a powertripping moderator on a large group like [email protected] the site admins can remove that mod if it was causing trouble for the overall site.

I'm finding I like Lemmy so much more than reddit. The people here are nice. Reddit was rehashed jokes and bitter idiots that'd jump on any tiny issue for the sake of it.
