I know I can.

But my point is that a lot of users will not stay here if they need to jump through different identical-communities across several instances or other websites to build their content-flow.

Decenteralized systems in all it’s glory, but I think at some point we will need to address or come up with a solution on how we market niche communities.

In reddit it was so simple to find your communities. Let’s say you grew interest in Balisongs, then you just type r/balisong and there you are. This helps discovery immensly.

Doing this on a lemmy instance will only get you to that instance community. Which means you might have like 10 of these already niche communities spread out around different instances.

Personally I’d think a system where an instance can promote or assign another instance community as the “main” one, with some type of backup feature, would help Lemmy grow.

But I also think that opinion is controversial considering the nature of a decentralized system.

I agree completely.

I don’t have examples at hand now, but I feel like I see so much like minorly-sexist talk. Or at least the stuff I only imagined horny men write, in so many threads.

Reddit was the same like ~10 years ago and I don’t miss that part of it.

Just gonna hijack this and recommend https://www.renshuu.org/ for everybody trying to learn Japanese.

It’s probably the best compaion-app I have found for learning the language.

To be fair, if he said what he wrote here in private, it’d still be extremely bad leadership.

Obviously he should correct them and point out why, but maybe not trash on them entierly.

Oh, so you want to make a website where you post personal pictures of youself and post updates of your everyday life, while connecting to your friends? It’ll be really big you say? There’s nothing else on the market lile this? Let’s go!!!

It’s hard to say with the limited context.

But the word is obviously, in certain contexts, derogatory towards women. However, I feel like, especially on the internet, you have to consider that the user using the term might not be a native speaker and could possibly be using it unintentionally.

I’d argue that a warning and explanatory comment would be the first step, unless it’s a repeat offender. Otherwise you are more likely to create enemies who won’t learn.

I feel like them and a lot of other people are also underestimating the amount of sex trafficed victims that are forced into it here in the west.

I think unlike with Reddit, what you see if what you subscribe to.

This was also the case with Reddit, unless you intentionally went to /r/all? Or am I misunderstanding you? To clarify I always used RIF or went to old.reddit and was never force-fed any content from outside my subscriptions, when I stuck to the home-page.

If you don’t like what you’re seeing, change your subscriptions. Not having Reddit force stuff into the feed is nice but it also means everyone is fully responsible for what they’re seeing.

You make a good point, but I think here’s where the current downside of Lemmy comes in, discoverability between instances are pretty bothersome and not easily handled unless you again, go to your instance /all and check what other communities other people on the instance are subscribed to.

I agree! It has been a great help in those cases.

I just don’t believe that it can fullfill the actual need for sites like StackOverflow. It probably never will be able to either, unless we manage to make it learn new stuff without reliable sources like SO, while also allowing it to snap up these obscure answers to problems without burying it in tons of broken solutions.

I honestly believe people are way overvaluing the responses ChatGPT gives.

For a lot of boilerplating scenarios or trying to resolve some pretty standard stuff, it’s good.

I had an issue a while back with QueryDSL running towards an MSSQL instance, which I tried resolving by asking ChatGPT some pretty straightforward questions regarding the tool. Without going too much into detail, I basically got stuck in a loop where ChatGPT kept suggesting solutions that were not viable at all in QueryDSL. I pointed it out, trying to point out why what it did was wrong and it tried correcting itself suggesting the same broken solutions.

The AI is great until whatever it has been taught previously doesn’t cover your situation. My solution was a bit of digging in google away, which helpfully made me resolve the issue. But had I been stuck with only ChatGPT I’d still be going around in loops.

That’s the equivalent to incel.

Legbeard is the neckbeard equivalent.

Let’s not ignore that they are one of the conglomerates that are making living in Korea so shitty for a lot of people.

It wouldn’t surprise me if the implementation has bias towards Chromium based browsers as both street view and Chromium are from Google.
