The first try blindfolded Guardian parry made my jaw drop. I struggle timing that even when I can see them.

This song has everything. Multiple genres. Synths. Epic solos. Harsh and clean vocals. A great theme for lyrics. Every time I listen to it and I think to myself “hmm maybe that’s enough” a new awesome riff comes in and I find myself listening to the whole thing again.

Doom metal, yeah I like it all

The pure heaviest album all time is, I think, Satan Worshipping Doom... Bongripper - Worship

This is exactly what I'm using to host my Mastodon and Lemmy instance. Very, very user-friendly!

The downside is the Lemmy version they support on Yunohost is very old... 16.7. First Yunohost will have to support Debian 12 and then a more recent Lemmy version could be supported. I wish they just used Docker containers for apps instead of having everything in the base system, even though it'd take more RAM.

Yeah 🤘

My favorite music as of late is Sleep. Headphones recommended.
Recently I like me some classic Grand Magus.
Finally, my normal friends just can't appreciate Bears!

The "subscribe & push" model is practically fundamental to ActivityPub. There's pros and cons to this design, but ultimately I think it's confusing and cumbersome for users..

Of course. Here's a quick one:

Pros:

  • You don't depend on anyone else's funds or time
  • Always available and snappy no matter how busy some parts of the Fediverse get
  • You choose who to federate with. Want to talk to both puppy-lovers and puppy-haters? No problem.
  • It's a social media account you really, in every sense of the word, own. Nobody can take it away from you. The lemmy.ml admins could accept the billions* they're surely being offered right now for their instance, but my account is still mine.

Cons:

  • Hosting costs some money, knowledge, and time.
  • Unless you subscribe to specific communities (or people, in the cast of Mastodon) those posts will never reach your server. So you don't really have a "Federated" timeline

*I'm joking about the billions. Probably.

That soundtrack immediately calms me down. I've only grown to like it more over time.

I haven't noticed at all, because I follow communities on lemmy.ml and beehaw.org from my own instance. I had this experience when Mastodon.social kept going down during major Twitter exodus phases. Federation is awesome.

Reddit has a strategy for this which works quite well. I'm not sure how it works, but I suspect it's something like sorting posts in each subreddit you've subscribed to, scoring them based on their popularity inside the subreddit (irrespective of the absolute # votes), and then mixing these posts together on your feed. So an unusually popular post in a niche 100 subscriber subreddit can still easily climb to the top of your feed.

Petz... 5 came out in 2002? I remember when Dogz and Catz released. I feel old.
