leaving Mastodon out to try

While it's clear what's meant from the context, I've never heard this idiom. Do you mean "hanging Mastodon out to dry"?

Drop in the bucket sounds weird to me too, but a quick check shows that it's the US version of drop in the ocean.

This is some weird throwback. Back when Lemmy was using web sockets (before Reddit blocked third-party apps) there was a bug where a page would update with different content, but replies would go to the original post (iirc), but it was fixed ages ago.

Where exactly did Hashem define the boundaries, and are we obligated to conquer those areas?

Yikes.

I love that track, thanks for sharing this analysis.

This could have been a really interesting question if OP hadn't been so vague. As is, there's too many interpretations to answer. Do they mean the physical connections? The protocols and services like IP, DNS and BGP? The world wide web, with its sites, links and search engines?

Does OP consider the Dark Web its own internet? Or a large corporate network its own internet? What about self-hosting a huge number of services in your own home?

So is this a human doing a great Attenborough impression, AI doing it, or the man himself*?

Their app and website are both atrocious. I've got a rant somewhere on Lemmy about once time it made me scream with impotent rage over the UX experience, and I'm someone comfortable with editing the DOM/scripting to fix the worst of it.

Well, said at least - this story's almost a decade old.

You've had a good definition, but Wikipedia has (a lot) more info: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kayfabe

I can see it from the three medium/small instances I just tried.

Also, is typigraphy a typo (typi?) or its own thing?

It took me way too long to remember about tails.
