More content is good in a system like Lemmy which is designed around filtering. So continue posting!

Authoritarianism - it doesn’t roll of the tongue though as you can see

How do you get that? Is there a quizz and do you get the hat?

Yes I do think giving them brainspace would be unethical but I’d agree with you that in practice is not impactful. That being said I imagine if employed at mass scale would have positive effects on our society. Attention matters in how society develops.

That’s the great thing about decentralization - we can migrate very easily!

It has gotten much better. More content and general activity and nutjobs at .ml and similar got mostly isolated from the rest of the network.

I think fediverse is really shaping up as a strong reddit alternative. Most pop subjects are mirrored here and the vibe is very similar to early reddit so there no real reason to go to reddit other than super niche communities like of a tv show or something.

Most props go to the lemmy.world team as it kept a consistent big sane network running that keeps the project stable! If .world never happened I think Lemmy would have remained cess pool of social rejects like most reddit alternatives like Voat or lemmy.ml

Maybe bit it’s more likely it’s jus5 entertainment based. Women leagues are created to attract more viewers/participants.

I would say that giving attention is a similar reward to giving money or power. It’s better not to.

Yes abolishing of woman sports if that helps you understand it. We can easily redesign sports grouping - it’s not nuclear weapons, not rocket science. It’s easy.

No. Not as long as the artist gets benefits.

There are billions of meaningful ways to entertain yourself. Don’t be a sheep - it’s your world.

Change rooms should be unisex either way and professional sports is totally solvable - we already have weight classes etc but at the end of the day sports is just entertainment and not what we should be basing our society about. It can fuck off and disappear for all I care - plenty of other entertainment out there.

Give most of it away to free software foundation and put couple million to an low yield ethical index fund and start packing for some traveling.

LLMs actually revitalized movement to move away from excel. I think it’s done for in the next 10 years.

Not the same issue. Wayland was needed because xorg architecture just cannot be backwards compatible and would be super difficult risky to retain legacy. Not the same issue here

Bet they are not starting fresh. Instead of using 35 year old code base they are using 20 year old code base.

Nextcloud is free software (aGPL v3) though so your worries are very misleading.

I have a native meadow lawn and it’s awesome. Zero maintenance, barely any watering (just peak dry season) and incredibly beautiful. The ecosystem takes care of itself as long as you don’t buff one side by accident.

There’s difference between making an encryption tool and hiring top psychologists to design abusive systems.

What actually might help: hold people who design these tools criminally liable. Everyone knows what they are doing but you can’t really say no to your employer because “don’t worry you’re not liable” so everyone continues on building the Torment Nexus.

the anti-democracy wave is crazy right now. This is exactly what all of these dictators and wannabe dictators want us to do - give up.
