Shows go by fads. The 2010s decade was crazy about zombies. Now it's all about retro.

Sound Off: How many 10+ year redditors have left the site?
Since the Digg migration, when was that, 2010?
Since Reddit's APIcalypse the content of that site has gone to the drain. It is very clear that power users are no longer posting quality content. I am much more amused by Lemmy than Reddit nowadays, though it's true that it has that new car smell and the communities will keep growing and reforming from the Reddit ashes.
I don't think Reddit will disappear, but it's not the same site it was two months ago, that's a fact.

does lemmy.sdf.org not federate with lemmy.ml?
I am subscribed to multiple communities from Lemmy.ml without issue.

Thoughts about defederation with burggit and lemmynsfw ?
I agree that it can be problematic to see some weird stuff on All, but defederating is a red button that affects everybody in the instance, and I don't like that. I enjoy seeing new stuff, and people can use the "block" button liberally.
However it is true that Lemmy still lacks some fine grained controls for users. I am positive that they will be implemented soon, so meanwhile we are living in this very early transition period where random shit can and will appear on our All page and we need to live with it (or use block a lot)

Miyazaki's masterpiece. If you loved the movie you MUST read the much longer manga!
Reply in thread
Quite a lot more, I’d say there is 2x to 3x more. And more importantly it feels complete. The movie seems like it needed a sequel and that sequel is in the manga.
If you liked the movie you’ll love the manga, guaranteed

My two white geraniums are siblings but they have slightly different tinted pink/red tones
Reply in thread
Maybe cross pollination? Many people have geraniums in the area and the bees likely carry the pollen everywhere
I also heard as a child that if a red geranium petal falls on the soil of a white geranium it can tint their flowers. But that sounds like a urban legend to me!

Has there been any talk of lemmy.sdf.org preemptivly defederating from Meta/Threads?
I hope it doesn't. There is always time to defederate if something is going on.

BeOS - The Forgotten ‘90S Operating System (Retrospective & Demo)
I actually used beos as a daily driver for a few months. This was maybe around 2000 or 2001. WinME crashed a lot for me and I couldn’t make linux detect my winmodem. Installed beos and everything was great. Dual booted with windows 98 when I wanted to play StarCraft.
Moved to Linux soon after but I will always remember those great days.

Is there any interest in SDF hosting an "old.lemmy.sdf.org" MLMYM Lemmy front-end
As a user, I have 100% interest! I still use old.reddit and it's peak UI design. The feature I miss the most in Lemmy is "show images" to expand all thumbnails. Hopefully it can be deployed at SDF.

Mods are asleep... posting the whole MASTER BOOT RECORD "INTERNET PROTOCOL" album.
I discovered MBR a couple years ago and my first impression was, "is this... electronic metal?". And turns out it is. Love them.

The TEX Shinobi I built from scratch with Kailh Box Pale Blue switches
Reply in thread
I know it's not ergonomic, but it's quite comfortable for me (I also had RSI) because it doesn't have the nav block and numpad, so the mouse stays in a pretty comfortable position. It feels a bit like a laptop keyboard, the trackpoint helps too!

Oh, definitely. Maybe the best way to put it is that the movie is like a trailer for the manga.

I'm using macOS and unfortunately I didn't find a good way to adjust its acceleration. IMO the firmware default is too sensitive and it's difficult to hover over the right elements, you end up jumping over them. I'm not sure whether on Windows or Linux the issue can me improved.

Is lemmy.sdf.org slow for folks in Europe?
Pretty decent for me. Located in western Europe

[@SDF](https://mastodon.sdf.org/@SDF) [@sdfpubnix](https://lemmy.sdf.org/c/sdfpubnix) Please tell me that all [#SDF](https://social.sdf.org/tags/SDF) instances across the Fediverse will be [#defederat
Reply in thread
I agree with this interpretation too and it is an excellent simile.
If sdf defederates from big instances I will accept their decision but I will find another server.
