Alright, it’s pretty clear to me you don’t actually care about the truth of the matter here, so I don’t really see a point in engaging further.
Feel free to have the last word. Best of luck to you.

If you don’t think Ukraine is on Russia’s doorstep I suggest you brush up on your geography.

it’s difficult to keep things secret when an entire country is suddenly involved in a war that’s literally on it’s doorstep

This description applies to the war with Ukraine as well. Weird that you think this is a point in your favor.

I think you’ve confused this post with an airport.

Would it be possible to have the error page when you are being attacked/there is an outage point to some other lemmy instances to go to?

I think that could be a big help if there is an issue when a new user tries to check out .world for the first time. They will at least have a link to click on to check out what lemmy is like on another instance and maybe sign up there too.

You are of course correct, the ‘law’ as written is way too vague to actually even apply in many situations. But it is a fun way to call out articles like this!

I would personally say it is more of a rule of thumb for identifying clickbait journalism. But calling it that isn’t catchy enough, much like the first half of this article’s headline 😄

“Any headline that ends in a question mark can be answered by the word no.”

Yeah, it reminds me of some kind of elongated bat’leth

I could see bandwidth being a big issue if the community grows as well, considering images aren’t cached on your local instance so that could easily take down a smaller server or cause a huge unexpected spike in costs.

I feel like we need a good third option, but I’m not even sure what that would look like. Maybe something distributed like IPFS.

It will start to stabilize eventually, but we’re probably not going to see that anytime soon!

Maybe Lemmy isn’t for you.

This is why having a big popular instance isn’t all bad. It helps detect and fix the scaling problems and inefficiencies for all the other 1000s of instances out there!

I’m so happy right now 😢

This will be possible to actually implement on Lemmy, whereas reddit was closed source, and didn’t really care about their communities.

Just curious how you think you might go about this. Do you plan on contributing yourself, forking, or using the community to influence the direction/prioritization of new features?

Do you really think they plate the food in the back of the house, then turn around and dump that plate of food into a container, and then wash the plate?
No wonder they need to charge extra.

Cost of takeout bags, containers, IT, all that jazz,

And then we subtract the cost of plates, dishwashers, chairs, menus, tables, IT for their internal POS and seating systems… gosh, sounds like I should be getting a discount!
