I’ve seen a few people doing it, but I (and literally any companies scraping instances for content) just lol and move on.
Oh oops, you haven’t pasted some cool copyleft licence below your words on this niche thread on a niche social media network so looks like I might remix and reuse your content without attribution… Unlucky
It’s not thriving. The devs are prickly arseholes, which is anathema to building a cooperative, volunteer-driven dev community and the tone of many mainstream communities is obnoxiously set by tankies amd their alts.
Bots are a fact of life, unfortunately.
It’s surely only a matter of time though, right? I mean, their support drops off sharply amlmg younger age-groups. I suspect they’re trying to ram through as much violence now as they can, because the clock’s ticking on such extravagant and uncritical (or only circumspectly critical) support.
Honestly the Lemmy main devs just aren’t that great amd their hardline ideology pushes away plenty of potential help.
Can I be pedantic? I’m going to go ahead: fiscal means tax-related, so probably just ‘financial responsibility’ is more what you’re aiming for.
Yea, you can see why, but it is such a hassle for people like OP. I used to have cassette tapes of a really good audiobook of the Lord of the Rings (something like 12 cassettes in a set!), but I just pirated a copy and dotched the cassettes because I had paid for that, and my copy would be awful quality. I have to say this kind of approach, as suggested elsewhere in these comments, seems the only logical outcome for this problem, it’s pretty silly.
But people insist on creating incredibly specific niche communities, I’m certain because they want to establish their own fiefdoms when this “blows up”.
Dude, this has got to make you like, at least, a minor celebrity. Normies don’t get pissy posts made about them.
It lacks the massive audience to bear non-nerd communities. The formula1 subs are not a patch on reddit, nor are the outdoorsy, camping and flashlight communities.
Excellent read. I now want to go camping in a tiny but huge hatchback. Your car sounds amazing, I hope you have many thousands of kilometres before retiring it.
I got a front tray thingy, strongly recommend. It means my cargo volume is limited only by my own ingenuity with my elastic cords, i.e. still quite a lot but a bit less than with a basket.

You owe the companies nothing. Less than nothing, you especially don’t owe them any courtesy. They owe you. They have re-arranged the world to put themselves in front of you. They never asked for your permission, don’t even start asking for theirs.
The longer quote is here.
Does it come as good news that cockroaches are bedbug predators? Some real “pick your poison” shit, huh?
Oh phew. I studied English Lit at university and had to wade through bits of both. I used to feel like I was some sort of uncultured swine for not “getting” them. But honestly, I just don’t think they work as novels. As a piece of art, I guess, sure. Fine and modern art can look like nonsense without context, but often make sense when seen as part of a conversation with other artists and movements. If taken like that, fine, you do you, Joycey-boy, and write incomprehensibly. I’ll be over here with my Iain Banks and Ned Beauman, enjoying them.
Lol
