Boost for Lemmy is happening!
As a boost user this is weird... So many people were asking in the subreddit and he never answered. I'm glad it's happening

Why would the US coast guard be near Greece?

The coast guard has never charged for search and rescue. This was not an ambulance ride.

Lemmy.world Admin Response to Defederation from Exploding Heads
Do you have any thoughts on beehaw blocking lemmy.world? Are you working with them to resolve the issues?
It seems like a rather large hit to communities as a large number of subreddits have landed there to help lemmy grow as a whole

repost: Should r/Piracy continue protesting?
Pirates don't protest when the ship is sinking. They commandeer another ship and use that one.

Lemmy.world officially has 33k users! 3000 users away from becoming the #1 lemmy instance.
Is there something like a Lemmy guide on how to use it? I'm using jerboa, and finding communities is not a user friendly experience so far. Everything is so separated.
Edit: thanks! I also decided to use "install app" from my browser which just makes an applet on my home screen. For now, this is a much better experience than jerboa. I understand it's very new so I'll definitely keep an eye on development

There was already an article that basically said they will be immune from any lawsuits. They operated in international waters outside the scope of any laws or regulations on how the submersible needed to be rated. I hope they can find grounds to sue them and kill the company, maybe they will be open to civil lawsuits?

I'm REALLY hoping the dev for boost (for reddit) makes a Lemmy app.

Apparently it covers their ass since they would only be held liable if they misrepresented the dangers. Since they mention death 3 times on the first page, I don't think they did.

A vast majority of Lemmy users are gonna have cakeday in the summer for a while
It was the same with reddit after the mass Digg exodus

I don't know many details on the loss there so I do not know if they were able to be saved or if they would have been assumed dead before the coast guard could have responded. Maybe the coast guard there just doesn't care?
Can't really compare either of these situation because they differ too much. Ask the Greek coast guard why they didn't make an effort.

Are there any Reddit refugees spending more time on Lemmy than Reddit?
The only thing I look at on reddit now is save3rdpartyapps for updates, and check my 3rd party app subreddit from news from the dev hoping he announces a Lemmy app.
This is coming from someone with a severe reddit addiction where minutes couldn't pass without opening the app lol. 13 year old account.
Thanks for curing my addiction spez!

Lemmy.world starting guide
Is there a way to pause the feed when browsing all/new?
It's adding new posts faster than I can even scroll, I see something I want to look at and POOF, it's gone to who knows where.

Search and rescue with hopes they can be found vs people already dead will win in media 10 out of 10 times.

Lemmy is CEO-proof. After Digg, Reddit and Twitter, that term should be a thing

What license would be appropriate for that? I've always been interested since I do photography, and it seems like any site like that needs nearly full rights so that they can store and distribute as they see fit so that they can do backups, migration, etc. What license would give those, but keep the full rights of the creator intact?
(I know nothing on the topic, just curious)

POLL - Will you stay on lemmy?
Yep, running a comment replacement on my 13 year old reddit account this weekend and deleting it.

Instead of deleting your Reddit account, consider using chatgpt to make comments instead
It took an automated script 8 hours to modify and delete all my comments, and you want me to do it manually, while referring to chatGPT for each one?
How much time do you think people have?
