Year of the lemmy desktop
It’s happening!
“Stay cool, stay cool!”
“Smile and wave boys, just smile and wave.”
Soon BuzzFeed will be stealing content from Lemmy
You won’t believe our top five Star Trek and Linux memes of the week!
You have done well, Lemmy. Keep going, and become greater than the corporate-overlord media.
I’m convinced someone on LTT’s team is on Lemmy. Two weeks ago one of their quickbits had a title “u/spez endorses lemmy”.
You left your SI in the link
What is an si (I presume session id)?
And where do look, if there is a standard for these thingies?
Thanks in advance.
We did it Lemmy
@Vittelius@feddit.org dude you’re famous now
put me in the screenshot!
and me!
I wish reddit a very merry “Going the way of Myspace and Ebaumsworld”
Reddit is probably too big to completely disappear but if they keep isolating themselves from the rest of the internet they could easily lose mainstream appeal and end up more like a SomethingAwful
Well, they are definitely something that is awful.
You know how people will repost screenshots of tweets or whatever? The other day I saw a screenshot of a Mastodon post on Instagram.
!Gaming@beehaw.org
Fuck yeah, the most wholesome gaming community, no less.
I’m worried about the link rot problem when the specific instance used as source goes down.
It’s like we need a DOI system for lemmy posts.
When I use a link as a source, at the time that I access it for information I will also save a snapshot of it in the Wayback Machine. Ofc theres no guarantee that the Internet Archive will be able to survive, but the likelihood of that is probably far greater than some random website.
That’s unfortunately just how the internet is/works. It’s all links and links to each other. Check out archive.is and archive.ph - Maybe we can build a decentralized archive thing based on IPFS or something
Link to segment. And, no, not only didn’t Liechtenstein not cross the threshold they’re not even in the EU they can’t vote.
Oooh, Netherlands and Denmark both over 90% now. We’re movin’!
Why does it have to be LMG of all places to use lemmy. Linus is not the cool tech guy anymore, he’s just another corpa boss who prefers profits over people and accuracy.
LMG has a long history of overworking its workers, plus reports of sexual harassment and bullying…
He belongs with spez and all other profit shitheads the fediverse is supposed to be free of.
My favorite linus quote (when asked why he didn’t properly test a product for a video):
I don’t know if I can apologize for not spending another $500 of various people’s time.
Didn’t he step down as boss after the latest kerfuffle because he just doesn’t make for a good boss.
Well done, that’s so awesome to see.
true
Mama we made it
I already don’t own an xbox and am happy about it. Checkmate, MS.
did LTT ever actually fix that issue where they stole somebody’s prototype after trashing it in a review where they tested it on the wrong thing? I had a weird vibe about Linus before that, and just wrote him off after
I think they addressed it, but idk much about it.
Somebody wanna fill me in on the don’t kill games thing? I’ve heard it mentioned 3 times now over the course of a week or two so I figure maybe it’s something noteworthy.
It’s an initiative to stop game companies (EA, Ubisoft, Blizzard etc) from being able to decide if you can play a video game that you’ve bought. The example used is for the video game “The Crew” which was an online-only racing game. After the servers were shutdown by Ubisoft, the game that many people bought became unplayable.
What StopKillingGames wants, is that any company that publishes / develop games provide a way for people who own the game to continue playing it indefinitely. This would most likely come in the form of a game server that could be run by any owner of the game, and shouldn’t be a requirement that publishers / developers run the servers forever as that would be unsustainable.
Ew, LTT. I feel dirty.
Beehaw isn’t even Lemmy under the hood iirc
What is it?
Three rats in a trenchcoat
youtube and revanced :D

Here’s a link to the video.
I see this as a small victory for the Fediverse.

There’s definitely an LTT writer that’s active here.

The only thing Lemmy doesn’t have that Reddit does have is the immense history of quality content. This will only get better in time.

It’s also missing IMO some mass to discuss more specific topics. For example, there’s enough people to discuss “anime” or “games”, but too few to discuss a specific anime series, or a specific game.
That’ll get better in time too, I believe.
