Oh das vermisse ich auch. Alle Spieleentwickler reden immer von den ach so tollen Social Funktionen und Communities. Aber effektiv ist alles viel anonymer geworden als früher.

Ich erinnere mich noch dran Battlefield einmal die Woche um eine feste Uhrzeit zu spielen. Immer auf dem gleichen Server auf dem dann auch die üblichen verdächtigen aufgeschlagen sind. War ne coole Zeit als man noch dieses „Ah guck mal der Squad ist heute auch wieder dabei“ Gefühl hatte.

Ist total verloren gegangen.

That makes sense. I think this also shows a general misunderstanding. Lemmy isn’t and can’t be a replacement for something like Reddit at the end.

Schlecht. Ich nutze es immer zur Produktrecherche. Suche dort nach Erfahrungsberichten und Empfehlungen. Vermisse ich echt stark.

Ansonsten vermisse ich es nur ein wenig wegen der Fülle des Contents. Lemmy ist da noch lange nicht. Schaue oft mal den Tag über drauf und man sieht eigentlich immer das gleiche. Aber das kann ja noch werden. Sieht jedenfalls vielversprechend aus hier.

This comment captures it in my opinion. I feel like the entire post here is trying to sell something that most folks don’t really care about, failing to see why people are upset about it (rightfully so or not). A lot of theory that fails short in practice.

I understand why the admins did it. It’s relatable. But it should equally easily be understandable why some users don’t like it. “It’s a federation, visit a community with 5 members instead of 20k” isn’t the most helpful advice.

Nah. I don’t think it’s an education issue. E.g. I do understand how it works, but see defederation as the nuclear option. As a user in a federated system I don’t care where the communities are hosted that I frequent. As long as it works. That’s the entire point of federation. Otherwise we could just remove federation all together and have everyone create a separate account per instance.

I get where the beehaw admins are coming from and it’s understandable. But it’s not good and chips away at what Lemmy is and could be.

This is one instance now where this happened and I’m not on either of these instances, so I’m unaffected. But if I see more of these defederations (no matter where), the Signal it sends me is that for my needs I likely still have to bet on Reddit and at max this will become an occasional visit.

We are still far away from this point. Just saying. And a normal user can’t be expected to understand it or relate to it. It’s bad UX if they have to. Arguing for them to be educated about it is nice in theory, but misses in reality of how things just are.

Isn’t that something the bigger companies would also probably love to have? Because it creates an invisible barrier to entry at a certain scale.

Yeah and most people have USB-C chargers nowadays. It will just get rid of other connector forms and going forward unify it. It’s awesome.

If you are a heavy Apple user that might be annoying for you. But in the gran scheme of things that’s the minority.

It would be awesome if it could also support older iOS versions similar to how Apollo did it. I’m on an older iOS version (for reasons) and Mlem can’t be installed here. So I’ll going to jump on the first App that can :D

Meanwhile I’m using the website. But it’s UX is kinda not so great for mobile.

I’m not on lemmy.world, but I’d just like to say that im always sad when I see communities using Discord for communication. It’s the exact opposite of lemmy. And if one considers the current Reddit measures as harsh, they are pretty soft compared to Discords stance on such matters. Information that goes in there is basically lost. So go the entire way with Matrix.

Ah. I didn’t knew. Thanks!

I mean usually if these systems are well architected and have enough head room they will just continue to run. It becomes problematic if you introduce change and don’t know them well. Change is the biggest factor leading to incidents.

What does that mean?
