We’ve been paying attention?

Or to put it more nicely: no one finds this side of the fediverse without feeling at least a little burned by corporations.

Edit: to be clear I never meant it as rude, just a little sarcastic.

we did

They probably know that.

It’s possible times have changed. Iirc Broward County was the goto suggestion but that may be out of date. I haven’t ever relied on a library for finding digital media

What does proof of address really mean to a library ? In times of desperation in the past I would enter the library’s address and it would work for at l’est a month before getting removed which can be enough time if necessary. Questionable ethics but usage stats do help libraries…

You should also know some libraries don’t care if you’re local.

I intended no disrespect and I’m sorry if you took it this way.

How long have you been having these ideas? Years?

Where (or how) did you study ancient Greek?

In what ways? Do you mind ellaborating on each point a bit?

How do they typically respond? Has it changed over time?

Do you share these thoughts with anyone else?

Is there an exceptionally reflective surface in your domicile? Take a peak at it.

Edit: but seriously for a moment, are you doing ok?

Unrelated, but Sync’s direct setting linking feature was a standout.

Consider making one or two of those communities. There’s no shame in sourcing articles/content from reddit and posting it here (direcelt links to source, not links to reddit) . A post or two every few days will quickly round up others.

It’s not that logical. It could be a by-product of some other process with some advantage to our species. Or maybe it just happened and didn’t increase our chance of death.

The transparent and non user-tailored algorithms, may be Lemmy’s strongest asset.

The default ui is heavily based upon the Apollo app and iOS design. There is an option for a more android-like approach however.

I also recommend Summit, Thunder, and Connect.

I made this comment on Sync but it’s hard to recommend at present.

Agreed. Reddit became worse when it started forcing unrelated content on you at every opportunity. It became hard to recommend to friends when each time I would realise I had forgotten what new reddit and the official app were like.

Reddit hasn’t really been good since the alogorith change that made the front-page stagnate for a day. I got the most out of it when browsing the frontpage was completely different 6 hours later. Once they made it so that every one who checked reddit that day would get the same experience, the spirit of the site died.

Edit: I also forgot to mention that I upvote almost everything. If you made a post that I read and it’s not complete trash, you’re getting an upvote. Same with comments. I upvote almost every comment I read - especially ones in response to my posts or comments. I feel like it let’s people know they’re being seen.

Oh hell yeah, me too. I browse all a lot (sometimes sorted by scaled) and even if something isn’t for me, if it seems like something others would like, it’s getting an upvote.

My how time flies. Reddit was already trash at that point, it was mostly habit keeping me going there, but I think it’s gotten a lot worse. Either that or I forgot just how bad it was.
