You don't get any dumb TVs in my country anymore. I'd assume its the same everywhere else unless you're going back a minimum 5 years of tech evolution, which might not be all too bad.
Yes I have the same experience. And on Kiwi, it can't detect the OS theme.
Incredible app! Never realized a web app could be so sexy.
Seems like Lemmy has a starring functionality.
Great explanation, thanks for the write up! I have a couple of questions, if I may.
-
So if I setup my own instance tomorrow, it'd be sending notifications of activity to all the other instances? Maybe I'd have to have a list of instances I'd like to notify? How does it discover the other instances?
-
If my instance is listening to all other instances? Won't saving all posts take up a lot of disk space? I guess there is only text and link data and no media, but wouldn't it add up fast as the number of users/instances grow ?
Tildes was actively not looking for exponential growth, and the drop in quality that sometimes accompanies it. It is not a Reddit alternative for most folks, who use it for cat pics, star wars memes, and outrage porn. It is for a niche of users who prefer slightly longer form, quality content, and knee jerk reactions and comments aren't as valued over there. I like it, but both Lemmy and Tildes complement each other well rather than being directly against each other. Worst case, one can always browse Tildes without logging in. I don't know why people rush to make accounts immediately, without waiting to get a vibe of the space.
