At least he fired Junior for uhhh… palm muting on his bass.

The privacy factor indeed needs to be looked at more. I sought refuge in the Fediverse to prevent FB from getting enough data points to profile me down to the soul. I’m pretty sure a huge margin of users here came for the same. Federating with such a cancerous entity defeats the purpose of migrating to here to quite an extent.

I love the fact that on the two ocassions I decide that I should get a previous-gen console secondhand once the current-gen one becomes mainstream enough (PS3 being the previous one), I come to know of an emulator for it. What I love even more is that its the same person coming up with the emulator both times.

Yeah I wanna know too. The one time I get lazy and don’t back up my password database, Bitwarden decides to shit itself and lose my Lemmy password. Now I’m stuck in the Jerboa app.

I think this is desired. Lemme give my case. I think r/historymemes is absolutely flooded with racism, tankies and neo-nazis, and perhaps more than the rest, colonial apologia. Reddit being centralised, I can’t create another r/historymemes.

Say we have a c/historymemes in some instance. The same racism and shit happens. No problem, I can look for a new c/historymemes on some other instance that is better moderated in regards to those problems.

Jerboa is developed by Lemmy’s devs. It’s fairly decent, though it needs some polish in the search functionality.

wavedrom.com is something I myself discovered recently. It can draw timing diagrams by taking JSON-style text as input.

Another interesting thing I realised: In a centralised network like Reddit, if the site goes down, nothing is accessible. But if a Lemmy instance goes down, most, if not all communities you’re subbed to should still be up given they aren’t hosted in that instance.

Load distribution. Different Lemmy instances are run by different volunteers who can only put so much money into them. So if lots of volunteers put up their own instances, then ideally each instance could have a few users signed up and thanks to federation, they’ll all be interconnected.
