Trotz Namen sieht https://sh.itjust.works/home/data_type/Post/listing_type/Local/sort/Active/page/1 nicht wie eine reine Shitpost-Instanz aus. Camping, Python, Babylon 5. Und NCD ist halt dort...

Also when sorting by active, posts jump around whenever you go to the next page, so you miss some posts and see others twice

The bright line is Starlink satellites immediately after deployment.

Starlink satellites do have stealth features to make them less bright, but those are only active in normal operational mode. Immediately after deployment and while dodging space debris, they are more visible.

Really big map, mostly empty

Because SpaceX satellites are coated in special reflective materials to reduce brightness. That requires the satellite to be oriented the right way to reflect the light from the sun away from the planet, so it only reduces brightness of the satellites in the operational orbit. Satellites immediately after deployment are far more visible.

Lemmygrad is blocked from federating with most other instances but still is a pretty large instance. Though that instance in particular is not very likely to look towards IPO.

It could happen if there was a very popular instance that didn't federate with others.

Because lemmygrad is pretty huge and other instances don't want their new users to be met with a flood of tankie content, most instances are blocking lemmygrad.

Unfortunately, rent control does have issues in the long run. Less profit for landlords does mean less money invested in new construction by people looking to make a profit. Less new construction eventually leads to shortages. It's great for those who already have housing, but those searching for a place to live have it more difficult under strict rent control. Though with how long construction projects take from planning to opening, this effect takes decades for any change to be noticeable.
