I noticed my YouTube become extremely slow. I was using edge for watching videos. Chrome eats the ram and this ad block makes it easier to just switch. The next attemp would be how to avoid them showing use chrome whenever I google or use gmail or so.
It is probably a lot of learning for them also that they don’t want to commit. Once enough or dedicated communities form all will join. I have seen a few of subreddits that went dark opened discord servers. I have a few hobbies and there are already servers that are better than Reddit, which I hope attracts users here ( for me it is VR/AR and 3d printing.). I am going to invest in programming communities here at least until other communities grow.
No. I am very happy at discovering a new place. I also miss the social media, pre 2010s. like in 2005, it was amazing and people felt much closer. One had a feeling that everyone is genuinely here to help and enjoy while socializing, rather than karma farming.
I am talking before Facebook grew big. The time of Orkut, Gazzag, old reddit, Slashdot. or even yahoo messenger, mIRC, before all those websites became a thing. I was not afraid of posting something, and wasn’t looking for votes, or afraid of down votes. Main aim of contributing to a post of joining in the discussion.
I had a very similar base, the I made a rail from the below ground to another house I built with my nephew… . Now a days after the release of new minecraft I started watching pixelriffs survival guide on youtube and step by step follow him. The pacins is slow :enough for me as I have a 9-5 job and stuff.
I wish someone or a dev could make this list in these website and propose lemmy/kbin equivalents for us the redditors to join instead. On the other hands mods of those subreddits if they want they can make a community over these platforms.
I am imagining that mid recording, the reason we see Linus almost crying is seeing Madison’s tweets on the screen next to teleprompter, appearing!
