People buy specially supported PCs for Linux?
Haven’t seen that behavior myself yet, but yes, that does sound like either a bug or shadowbanning.
Excuse me for not being able to help.
I’ve encountered a few times where the post or a parent comment got deleted, which also appears to hide any sub-comments.
Might that be it?
Right, used Google translate and still got it wrong.
The picture is from the day after, the dike did overflow(/flood?) and is now keeping the water in, hence the water on the wrong side.
EDIT: According to Merriam-webster, “dyke” is the British spelling of “dike”, though it can also be a slur in the right context.
Could be worse, could be snaps.
She’s down bad with the anime syndrome.
That, and the reddit repost bots who sometimes mass post content from Reddit with no interaction on Lemmy.
Now, having the same post being replicated on multiple subs was no rarity on Reddit, but they tended to use crossposting.
I’ve found the current moderation tools to be enough to deal with the latter problem, but crossposting or linking posts would be a nice feature on Lemmy, even if I’m not sure how one would properly implement that on the fediverse. So yea…
We had this question before, so let’s get right back at it!
There was a rather controversial happening at Reddit a few months ago, which caused a lot (in Lemmy terms) of users to check out Lemmy.
Some of those users left rather soon, and some more keep dropping off regularly, as they can’t seem to adapt to Lemmy, or rather live without one or another feature or content from Reddit.
Now to your question, what can we do better?
Advertisement is of course one, but a large part of the users who left Lemmy we’re likely because of Lemmies unfinished state, so maturing Lemmy should be a top priority. “But properly maturing a social site requires an already existing user base” - and that’s exactly what we have right now, even if it’s dwindling.
Other solutions might also spring from creating the better user experience, such as features to moderate properly, both on a moderator and user basis, and of course to provide sufficient high-quality content.
We can of course try and forcefully promote Lemmy while promising rich lands and green fields, but I think that this is not the optimum path for Lemmy at this time, as we just might acquire the same bad reputation that vegetarians or Linux or a lot of other good initiatives suffered from.
Not even Windows can run all Windows games, so that’s kind of a hard criteria for Linux to achieve.
