It’s an interesting thing to ponder and my opinion is that like many other things in life something being ‘OC’ is a spectrum rather than a binary thing.
If I apply a B&W filter on an image is that OC? Obviously not
But what if I make an artwork that’s formed by hundreds of smaller artworks, like this example? This definitely deserves the OC tag
AI art is also somewhere in that spectrum and even then it changes depending on how AI was used to make the art. Each person has a different line on the spectrum where things transition from non OC to OC, so the answer to this would be different for everyone.
Instance admins can setup a slur filter for their instance, which automatically removes that word from ever appearing on that particular instance.
Ahh yes this is one of my favorite quotes and one I think about a lot.
haxNode - Caught with malware
mentioned in FMHY’s unsafe list
A subscription import/export function would be much easier to implement but I don’t think that’s what users want when they say they want instance migration functionality.
Password managers are as important as adblockers in this day and age imo
for personal use, main reasons are you won’t have to worry about instance admins making arbitrary decisions that you don’t agree with, and no worries about server overload or downtime.
for making an instance for public, helping fediverse become a more viable alternative by spreading the load over more instances and helping it grow.
The beehaw and world defederation (which I assume you are referencing) is temporary because beehaw believes the increased traffic cannot be moderated without proper mod tools.
And while you’re right about mainstream things like gaming or technology won’t have a single main community, I feel more niche communities will be able to setup their main communities. Obviouly that’s just my opinion, but there are some signs of that happening already. (c/piracy for example)
As time goes one community will emerge as the main one while other would dry up and naturally become obsolete (until people get angry with the mods of main one and start looking for alternative community, similar to how there are r/truegaming, r/true(x) etc for popular subreddits.)
There are many open PRs on lemmy github on how to aggregate similar communities. For example there is a suggestion of making an auto multireddit like thing, m/gaming for example, that would merge posts from every c/gaming community (not sure how this would work with defederation and stuff). With enough demand, something like that can be added to lemmy by an experienced dev.
Criticizing and mentioning flaws of a system doesn’t automatically make a person against the system.
Accepting the current flaws and then working on their solutions is the way to make Lemmy better for everyone.
There’s a non-english section in fmhy wiki: https://fmhy.pages.dev/non-english/#hindi
Ah okay thanks for clarifying
Damn, thanks for reporting. We’ll remove the ones not working after checking again.
I made a collection of guide in this post.
I’ll try to keep it updated as more guides are created.
This seems like a much better explanation for Lemmy compared to the email analogy everyone writes for non-tech savvy people.
With Twitter, situation is different since most celebs are still on it and people generally use it just to see what the popular people are saying. Once (and if) these celebrities join Mastodon, Twitter would start to finall fall.
It’ll probably make the onboarding process easy for people who find the concept of fediverse daunting. This might help fediverse go mainstream.
good to see you took the matters into your own hands lol
That’s true, duplicate copies of the same book is perhaps the main pain on bookwyrm right now. On the other hand it also feels like a problem that devs must be aware of and are actively trying to figure out a solution for.
