It's for kbin. I don't think it would work for lemmy.

Yeah the only reason I still go to Reddit is to watch the chaos. Great entertainment

I still think the admin team will forcefully takeover and reopen the big subs, but I think that'll be like pouring gasoline on that dumpster fire.

The developers have said they're working on it, this is something the Fediverse supports. Kind of.

If at all possible avoid checking baggage. It can cost more, will force you to wait for it, and can get lost.

And if you must check, being anything you can't replace with you on the carry on just in case (documents, laptop, etc)

Man it would really suck if we ever lost the backlog of YouTube videos

135 by my count. (Just means I've been commenting in communities that your instance hasn't discovered yet)

Edit: instance, not insurance lmao

Keep individual servers small and cheap. That's all we really need. Federation can provide the communities.

I think it caches thumbnails. And I imagine it probably deletes older ones?

Yep, worked for me.

Well usually at least the first 20 posts show up for new communities that I search. But for this it shows no posts. There should be one.

Only the very first user to subscribe/search for a new community needs to do this. It'll just appear for everyone else on that instance from then on.

And the devs are working on a solution to make this happen more automatically.

Segmentation was a problem on Reddit too. Anyone could make a sub with a similar name to compete with another. Users on lemmy will probably slowly gravitate towards one or two big communities for each topic. It's just early days.

Lol, it had nothing to do with Rogers the telecom company. That's just the URL I happened to own for personal reasons.
