Go to the nearest jewelry store and buy everything in it. Wait an hour, return it as per the refund policy. If there is no refund policy then I would sell it off. Even if I lost 50% on the sell back, that's still half a mil in cash.

Most popular jewelers have at least a 30 day refund policy.

I think it's more of people wanting to stick with the developers and apps that they have used on reddit. Some of which have been using and supporting for almost a decade. It also means more of an endorsement for Lemmy, as some reddit sync users wouldn't consider Lemmy otherwise. Lastly, a significant number of power users (those that actually post, comment, and otherwise contribute) use third party apps over the official app, meaning that having support for these apps on Lemmy will hopefully bring over quality users and not just a larger quantity users.

That's my take on it, and I am someone very pro open source.

No confirmation that it will be there at launch but great news that he's committed to supporting it!

Duley noted. I first posted the post where they were gauging interest, then they quickly followed with the announcement. I was just really excited. Thank you for leaving it up. I will pay more attention next time

Welcome to the Playstation 5 Community! (lemmy.ml)
 

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.ml/post/1153901

I made this community to provide a place for Playstation players to hang out, socialize, post links, and otherwise do what people do on a link aggregator website.

When I came to Lemmy I noticed that there was no Playstation community, and that c/Playstation was seemingly defunct. While this community is called PS5, I'm not going to limit discussion to a narrow focus for now. So anything PSX, PS2, PS3, PS4, PSP, PS Vita, Remote Play (Official or Chiaki), or even Emulation is all game. As Lemmy communities mature, I may decide to narrow the focus, but for now consider anything Playstation related good to go!

Anyway, lets all build a great and kind community! Head over to the sidebar for more info. I will likely add more links and resources as time goes on.

When I fill in all the info and then click 'create' nothing happens. Is there something I'm missing?

I've seen lots of discussion on reddit of users trying to get others to join Lemmy and the prevailing reply is that it is too difficult to navigate and comprehend. Having to answer multiple questions and wait for manual verification is combersome and is limiting growth at a time when nothing should be standing in Lemmy's way. Combine this with server/instance selection analysis paralysis, and you get my point.

The linked mastodon blog post sums up my thoughts, but the TLDR is essentially this:

Don't let the perfect be the enemy of the good. Don't let dreams of decentralization interfere with the greater goal of achieving the network effect.

We should all be telling people to go to lemmy.ml and sign up. The devs should be too, and they should rethink/remove the questions and waiting period. Hell, just put a captcha. Discussions about servers and analogies to email as an example of federated service we all already use is a waste of breath. We shouldn't have barriers to entry.

Thoughts?

EDIT: I've just found kbin.social and find it has superior signup options. It's just: make an account (email/password), or sign up with Google or Apple. No server talk. Upside is the layout is nice and it acts as a Lemmy instance (threads) as well as a mastodon instance (microblogging). Only downside currently is that their android/iOS app is in development and isn't ready yet, so desktop only.

I think this might be the better recommendation for newbies at the moment.
