He was never a top driver. The car was further ahead of the rest at the start of the season and he had some luck during the races, but anyone who ever thought he was going to be challenging for the title was kidding themselves.

Bei der Ausbeutung der Arbeiterklasse ist die SPD wie immer vorne dabei. Wie können die noch auf zweistellige Ergebnisse kommen? Wer wählt die und warum?

Browsing other instances in c/fediverse@lemmy.world
[–] Harpa@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I'm aware of this, but I'd love a way to only browse specific other instances as if local. That way you could narrow your browsing to a topic if an instance is specifically for that topic. For example if there was an instance just for gaming, another just for sports etc. you could switch between different topics and narrow your browsing to only show communities for that instance's topic, depending what you're in the mood for and to discover new communities.

It seems like instances focused on certain topics are a logical way for the fediverse to work.

Browsing other instances (lemmy.world)
 

I'm really enjoying the fediverse so far, but there's one thing which seems a bit inconvenient, and I'm wondering if I'm just doing it wrong.

I'd like to have a way to browse all local communities for another instance. This seems useful for instances that are specific to a certain niche, for example ttrpg.network for tabletop gaming. Of course I can subscribe from lemmy.world, but that requires me to first know about the communities, and the best way to do that seems to be to go to ttrpg.network directly and browse local there, especially because new communities are created all the time, so I can't just look through the communities once and be done with it.

I've created a separate account on there and switching between them is very seamless on Jerboa so that's the way I'm doing it for now, but it kind of seems to defeat the point of the fediverse. If I could easily synchronize my subscriptions between accounts on different instances, it would make it a lot more convenient as well.

I'm new to this, so is there just something I'm missing? Or will it be solved in the future? In theory the concept of having instances tightly focused on certain topics seems like a great idea, but having to switch between accounts to browse all communities specific to that topic seems less convenient than it could be.

I need to survive for 3 days without pooping, and eating as little as possible. I can pee, but not very often. It can't take up too much space. What food do I pack? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

I don't even want to know the answer because it'll be less entertaining than lemmy's collective imagination.

As for the question: I think your biggest problem is going to be inducing a proper clearout shortly before you go on your trip. Maybe laxatives?

Edit: I just realized, is the reason you don't want to go despite having toiles available stuff like hemorrhoids or an anal fissure? Because if so, there are creams for that my friend.

Früher oder später werden die alle wieder öffnen, entweder weil die Mods einknicken, weil sie durch die Admins einfach ersetzt werden oder weil die, die dem Protest zustimmen einfach abgewandert sind und die die übrig geblieben sind dann mit großer Mehrheit wollen, dass die Subreddits wieder eröffnet werden. Gibt ja jetzt schon Abstimmungen darüber, die vermutlich alle für ein Ende des Protests ausfallen werden, weil die kritischen Stimmen einfach nicht mehr da sind.

Die wichtigste Frage wird aber sein, wie sehr die Aktivität danach gesunken ist. Die cleverste Lösung um als Modteam nicht ersetzt zu werden aber trotzdem zu protestieren ist wohl das, was z.B. die Mods von r/pics machen (wieder eröffnet aber es sind nur noch Bilder von John Oliver erlaubt).
