What specific parts of Arch Wiki do you find useful as a Debian user?

Tokyo night theme looks very similar to Atom’s One Dark theme. Is there a connection between these two?

I was using mobile website on ios but then tried the Memmy app. The app experience is much better.

I switched to clang a long time ago, when gcc’s support for C++11 was not that good.

Why do you personally prefer gcc?

Trying to be controversial on purpose.

What’s a voice mail?

While playing video games for hours with no break.

/u/spez wants to restore Reddit to its former glory but knows that shareholders would never allow it. He decides to single handily rescue Reddit through and inside job that burns Reddit to the ground so Reddit can be reborn as Lemmy, the purest form of Reddit that surpasses even the original. Lemmy’s wild success steers the entire Internet onto the path decentralization, as it was originally intended to be.

Thank you /u/spez, you are a true hero.

I will never use it but if Threads steals users from Twitter, that will reduce Twitter’s dominance and make it easier for other users to switch to the Fediverse.

Just make sure to defederate Threads from the start.

Using Firefox to post on Lemmy - feels good man.

Having said that, Firefox would be much better if Mozilla would spend their resources on improving the browser instead of random shenanigans.

I expect this to evolve like email did. It used to be very easy to host your own mail server but due to spam the large providers started using whitelists and nowadays it’s almost impossible to have a self hosted mail server that is approved by the others.

Similarly, I expect that hosting your own Lemmy instance will be impossible in the future. We should enjoy it while we can.

I wish Reddit apps were promoting Lemmy in their shut down message to users.

When Chrome was first launched, so many people thought Incognito would be useless. Little did they know.

I fully migrated but the vast majority of users won’t. In fact, a significant portion of users that try Lemmy will likely go back to Reddit.

This is what happened with the Twitter -> Mastodon migration: https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2023/06/op-ed-why-the-great-twittermigration-didnt-quite-pan-out/

I’m glad to see this but app stores have anti review bomb measures so this might not make a difference

Moderating is time consuming, tedious and done by volunteers. I’m not surprised that they get overrun after the latest influx of users.

In an ideal world these APIs would be free. But corporations exist to maximize profit and their value is the user network and the content that users generate. Of course they will try to milk it as much as possible.

Need to actually deliver on this, not just suggest it.

I’m actually curious the reason why Lemmy does not have a karma equivalent.

I don’t miss it since I rarely checked my reddit karma but it does have pros and cons.

Even if there isn’t a user exodus, the value can change if advertisers value the platform less and spend less on it.

While twitter is trying to make subscriptions a thing, the main revenue source is advertising so the value reflects the advertising potential.
