The biggest problem is that federation splits the communities between instances. So a single interest may have 5-10 different communities, all with fewer users than on an equivalent subreddit.

I’ve been saying this since the beginning, Lemmy needs a way to follow topics that allow you to subscribe to all related communities at once. And posting to a topic on one community allows it to show up across different communities of the same topic.

Is like twice a week I see that sentiment on here. What’s OP complaining about? Their mirror?

Beehaw as an instance doesn’t have nearly enough content to justify defederation. It wouldn’t be missed if they moved somewhere else.

That being said, I do enjoy the discussions and would personally be disappointed to see it move or be closed off, but not enough to move with it.

Gonna sideload cocaine while I mainline heroin.

The united states. Our sugar industry lobbied hard for the government to tell everyone that fat is bad for you and funded false studies saying so.

So low-fat and fat-free foods became the norm and to make up for the lack of flavor, companies added loads of sugar to everything and got people addicted to it.

I’m not so sure this copypasta would catch on.

Chocolate milk is the least of the problems. And whole milk should be served because fat is fine for you and 2% and skim just replace the fat with sugar for the taste.

But milk is pretty much inconsequential. There are so many other issues like you mentioned. Zero city walkability, poor nutritional education, food is rarely made fresh and with high quality ingredients, we have too many preservatives, too much sugar, and too many chemicals.

It won’t get better until we fix so many issues.

Something about the McElroy’s comedic style is perfect for me. And I’ve been watching MKBHD almost since he started on YouTube.

10 genocides?

I’m surprised they’re not more popular given how close their music is (or at least was early on) to Tame Impala.

I think it’s great psychedelic rock without going too experimental.

I crack literally every knuckle in my fingers. I crack my wrists, elbows, neck (that one actually has caused issues), and can even crack my toes and knees sometimes.

I really really want to stop, but as soon as I feel that pressure in my joints, I just have to pop it.

Anyone know any good books in the same vein as Robinson Crusoe, 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, Count of Monte Cristo, and Don Quixote?

I tend to really enjoy the old classic adventure novels.

Drop all the entertainment articles, etc.

Or send only the entertainment articles. Why wouldn’t the aliens want to hear about the life and exploits of Leonardo DiCaprio?

Probably just send them the encyclopedia brittanica

Really want that inheritance, huh?

Seriously, how has there not been a survival RPG Battle Royale in the style of the Hunger Games?

Create a character with certain traits and skills using the same number of allotted points that everyone gets, then survive for 30 minutes to win.

Could be a bow hunter or a nature specialist, a sword fighter or a trap-maker. You could be strong, tall or fast and small with the ability to climb trees or swim better. How has this not been made yet?

Because it should take you about 2 minutes to brush your teeth.

If you’re actually brushing for 6 minutes straight, you’re overdoing it and damaging your enamel and gums.

Brush gently, floss thoroughly.

Hollywood’s (meaning movie and TV producers in general) default is white and straight.

The hetero norm is changing slowly, but the white norm is still very much a thing. Typically for a movie to feature a predominantly POC cast, it’s directed by a POC and listed as a POC movie, rather than just… well, a movie.
