All communities won't show up on instances automatically so it may be that you're the first person on your instance to 'subscribe' to that community! In my experience with lemmy, you can simply add /c/[email protected] (TLD=top level domain) to whatever instance you're at and that should pull that community in, but it could take a few seconds.

This example url would access the /c/general community @lemmy.world from lemmy.zip:

lemmy.zip/c/[email protected]

I'm still learning all of this too, so I'm sure there's a better way - hope this helps some though!

Been on that spare for a long time, if we don't go without we may never replace the wheel anyway.

All for it. Would love to see tipping culture go away in the US

I would hesitate with WD. I’ve always been a fan of their drives but their software straight up wiped people’s backup disks a few years ago, iirc. That would give me pause before ever using their software again.

Yeah spez could have easily cashed in on a lot of money with Apollo and the other 3rd party apps if they worked together. So glad he chose this path though, fuck him.

Assuming those posts actually wind up here, yes.

Well said, this was all something I didn't really understand before reddit did what it did. It's all crystal clear now though!

Yes this is a good callout. Kbin/Lemmy need to get better about cross searching various instances. Build in the https://lemmyverse.net/ functionality without having to browse to another site.

He ends the video with this, which I thought summarized his thoughts well:

" 'No hit to revenue.' (quoting Hoffman) Your 2 day blackout did nothing. But that doesn't mean that it has to be in vain. Because you can convert that blackout into an indefinite one, at the blink of an eye. That's what I'm doing. And that's what I hope all of you do as well. I want you to teach Steve Hoffman a lesson. I want you to teach him a lesson that his website is not valuable because of the domain name, the servers, the API, or the brand. It's valuable because of you."

So apparently his kink was just unconscious women? 😳

100% agreed. as someone that has been meaning to jump into the fediverse since the Twitter debacle, I was paralyzed by having to choose an initial Mastadon server. If you want lemmy/kbin to grow, just link them directly to the best matched instance you can find for them.
