I’m pretty sure this is with in the rules of monopoly according to my understanding

Yes steam gardens is great. Such a funky tune!

Ok but Mario slaps so I wouldn’t be offended at all if someone suggested that. Dire Dire Docks, Gusty Garden Galaxy, Super Mario Bros 3 athletic theme? Yes please

Yes why do you think they make you pay with your card or Walmart app if they can help it? So they can track your purchases

And so at small stores ran by local owners who can’t afford surveillance equipment and aren’t obsessed with profit

At least Lemmy is open source and there isn’t any advanced analytics running and telling server operators exactly what you look at and for how long. And if there was, it would be discovered quickly and you could host your own instance and only look at content locally.

Your posts aren’t private. But that’s the whole point so that they can be seen and federated

I disagree that Reddit has good content but even bad content is better than no content for communities that haven’t been built here yet

Shoutout to !bikinibottomtwitter@lemmy.world by the way. You’ve made it to Friday Sailers!

Id like to give an honorable mention to Shanghaied (where they become indentured to the Flying Dutchman)

Probably either Bandgeeks or Hibernation

Maybe OP should touch grass if he wants to know what real people think

Lemmy already is a free speech safe place in that nobody controls it. If you find that people are interacting with you negatively, blocking you, or otherwise not agreeing with you; that isn’t censorship. It doesn’t matter how many times you post this question.

Sir, this is a Wendy’s

Is it full of spam because it’s unmoderated or is it just empty. If it’s just empty but has a good amount of subs just start posting. A lot of times the community can police itself and if you need a moderator if it becomes more active then reach out the the instance admins that the community is hosted on.

At least the mask is off. Apple, Google, Meta. None of them care about anything but profit and there isn’t a value they aren’t willing to compromise on if it makes the line go up.

If it weren’t for social media, humanity would find another technology to lie and manipulate people for money and power.

Money and Power are what corrupts, not technology

Apollo was the best Reddit app on iPhone. Voyager continues its legacy

voyager is available as a web app if you’d rather use your browser vger.app

If people can’t understand what federation is then just send them directly to .world or lemm.ee or another big instance. If they have common sense then send them to join-lemmy and let them pick an instance. If someone is unable or unwilling to learn a very basic concept then they probably are not going to be a very good neighbor to have on the fediverse.

I agree that the discoverability of communities needs improvement. I think that most instances should add starter pack like features with the most popular communities for people to choose to subscribe to when onboarding new users.

In my opinion, finding the right and active communities to subscribe to is the biggest onboarding hurdle, not picking an instance. If picking an instance is a hurdle, that person wasn’t willing to try another site in the first place

If you are looking for an app, Voyager is the best in my opinion. It’s totally feature complete afaik
