That's great news! Hopefully it releases soonish.

I'm the only one here.

Not only annoyingly slow, but I tend to get a massive influx of posts from one community all at once. It fills my entire page with that single community. It's been my biggest annoyance so far.

That's awesome, now I just have to figure out how to convince my wife to let me do it.

Unless someone goes in and changes their shown languages to English in their settings, threads with the default of English won't show. It even warns of that if you attempt to change languages in your profile.

So leaving it undertermined actually means more people will see it.

I just wanted to say thank you for this, hopefully it helps to clean up the clutter from this community.

Do reports come across from my instance to yours? I attempted to create an account on Beehaw, but apparently didn't answers the questions properly because they denied me.

At this point, I'm begging users and the mods. Use the correct communities. This is /c/Technology, not /c/LatestRedditDrama

This community is over-run by this drama, which has multiple communities dedicated to whatever the latest crap reddit is pulling. Please use one of those instead.

What does this have to do with the fediverse? I don't want American political bullshit cluttering my feed like happened on that other site with literally every sub.

The vast majority of people that watch youtube, are most likely not using an ad block and won't be affected by this at all. Just like the vast majority of reddit users use the official app, and the vast majority of people on twitter stayed.

It will take a lot more than this to make something else the next big thing. Just like lemmy is nowhere near as popular as reddit, mastadon is nowhere near as popular as twitter. Yes those of us technical enough or that care enough will use an ad block or similar, but we are in the minority, and always will be.

For me it's fantasy. Stuff like Dungeon Crawler Carl, Joe Abercrombe or R A Salvatore etc... If you have a suggestion for an active community that's not on discord I'd love to hear it.

Sorry I'm just frustrated as a lot of communities have become nothing but the latest reddit drama. I'm just hoping that doesn't happen with this one too.
