Yeah, I feel this. I wont make communities since I'm not the moderator type. But I will make an effort to post which in my case is a step up since I mostly lurk.

I guess it depends on what you're here for. I'm not really looking for friends as much as insightful comments from people of similar interests. Quality posts need a certain amount of people to show up. Like the guy spending months and years making the perfect photo of the moon. Would that happen in a forum with ten people? I don't think so. Not to say that quality content wont happen here. It's all up to each and every one of us in the end, and people seem to leave longer comments of better quality and substance. Lets do our best and see where it goes!

I'm not really into Marvel anymore, but please continue posting. There are too few people here yet but diligence will help these places grow. It's like the mod of /r/disney said on Kbin. A subreddit of 500k people like Disney only generated a few dozen posts a day. It's difficult to start from scratch but we need people like you!

True true. I think I see it like this good old xkcd.

Same thing for me. But I mostly lurk on reddit. I'd like to make an effort to post here though!

Blir det fredagsgrodor här också? Eller föredrar folk att göra en egen nisch?

Intressant. Undrar vad för implikationer detta kan medföra. Såklart är det bekvämt att kunna ha det i mobilen, men finns det något som inte är en så uppenbar följd av detta?

The real YSK is of course in the comment. =) Thank you for expanding on this. It's always important to make sure you are prepared. You don't have time to google these things when the disaster is at hand. If you're not prepared when a fire breaks out you might panic and make dumb decisions. This goes for all stressful situations of course. Make sure you have some plan for common emergencies. That goes for medical emergencies as well as fires.

Isn't that the standard way these types of businesses operate? Find a user base. Invest and grow, grow grow. Then figure out how to monetize it later. That is why so many massive platforms can run without profit for years. The value of the company is estimated based on the size of the platform and monetization is assumed somewhere down the road.

We simply might be hitting that point down the road where the companies want to make up the revenue.

Other people have said the important parts. I'm not sure if you were on reddit for long. But if you think back to the early days of reddit it was not as stable as you might think now. The site was constantly down and there were many bugs. The user interface was still in development. Lemmy could be a diamond in the rough. Give it some sharpening and it will be a good place. I guess it's up to the users.

Seems like the cat squished itself...

Välkommen!

Maybe adding some Cloudflare service or similar would benefit Lemmy. I think Kbin has it but that is moot as long as other instances don't.

Case in point. We're having this discussion right now. I think it's fine to still be subscribed to Beehaw unless I'm missing something. I guess you might just be typing to people that can't reply. The OP for instance.

I really need to get started with Geometry nodes and then simulation nodes. It seems to definitely be the next step. Not only in Blender but also in 3D over all. It seems like a valuable skill.

Jag har bott i min lägenhet i ungefär 5 år nu och har nästan inte sagt ett ord till mina grannar förutom ett bajsnödigt "Hej" när man möter dom i trappuppgången. Känns dock allt för sent att börja prata nu. Men det kanske är mer pinsamt om tanten under mig dör och ingen upptäcker det.

För att inte tala om alla måsar. Visst, nu är den tiden på året förbi men under våren så får man springa till bilen för att dom inte ska dyka ner för att attackera dig. Hur tänker dom? Skapa bo på tak och sedan bli arga för att folk lever där.

Thank you for your service.

Såklart. Det måste falla sig naturligt bara. Man får nästan vänta och se om något manifesteras.

Ok, so this is my first post. It seems to be going quite well so far. The communities seem to be upbeat and positive. The comments are mostly insightful and of good quality. Reddit does have the advantage of time and user base but I think Lemmy or Kbin can catch up quite well. I remember the early days of reddit and it was constantly offline due to the influx of users and there were many bugs. So I'm positive to the development of this place. Lets see where it goes!
