Yeah the basic human rights of BP to have access to Iran’s resources

Get your point but most 4K encodings I see are ~10-20GB.

This is pretty much what I expected from this scum administration.

The real depressing news is in the linked article, where a survey showed only 53% of respondents thought the shooting was unjustified (35% thought it was justified, rest gave no opinion). I don’t understand how you see that video and come away with any other conclusion unless you’re just being actively partisan.

I’ve always been more of a lurker/commenter than a poster, but posters are what Lemmy needs if we want more users to come. People need to want to come to Lemmy for content.

In my experience, the best poster on the platform is the person making the comics on /c/unix_surrealism, in that sometimes I find myself wanting to check the comm to see if there is anything new.

And this will be disagreed with heavily, but the second best posters are the memers at Hexbear. I just think they make the funniest leftist memes (so political content, sorry people who are tired of politics), and they’re the only instance that actually has a site culture, with their own in-jokes and history/lore.

When Reddit was young, that was a big part of it: Posts that went viral among the community and became in-jokes/lore. Comment chains (as much as I grew to hate them). And original ideas for content (AMA, TIL, AITA, etc.). There was a kind of culture to the site (that’s mostly been diluted now).

That said. I like Lemmy perfectly fine at the size it is, even if it doesn’t fully replace Reddit. Though it’s concerning to see it declining.

It’s not a “conversation”, it is evangelism.

A bit ironic from the piefed evangelist.

Most people on Reddit avoid the larger subs like the plague though

This doesn’t really seem to make sense to me.
