Sure! I made an artemis.camp account account lol.
When I’m lounging, I’ve been opening up kbin.social first always, and when the content runs out I rotate between youtube / instagram / reddit. I’ll try out kbin -> artemis -> other for a bit, to give it a solid chance!
Okay, so I’m here on kbin.social. And I see that it’s artemis.camp only until 0.2.1 comes out.
Should I just come back in a bit to use my established account? Or is 0.2.1 going to take like 3-12 months so I might as well just make an artemis.camp account?
I loved this book! But it’s physically huge and not very commute friendly lol. I ended up switching to the audiobook to get it done.
Oooh, I’m excited to try this out! But later, 'cause I’m just on mobile, and kbin doesn’t have a save function yet lol.
Wow, I’m pretty impressed with BC for this.
Having font support really legitimizes a language. It’s basically impossible to make digital content if you can’t type in your language, so this is really unlocking a lot for the readers and writers of all those languages!
I vote both!
There’s a lot of situations where shared bikes are a great idea, so to me that’s a default “Yes!” answer lol.
But my own bike can be better suited to my needs and preferences, so that also becomes a “Yes!” to me too lol. For example, I usually prefer my bike’s seat to the ones on shared bikes.
But! If I’ve walked to my friend’s house, and we get invited to a game across town, I’ll gladly pick up a shared bike rather than detour home lol.
If I think my comment is more relevant than all the others I see, I even boost myself lmao. No shame hahah.
When I’m contributing to the conversation, I upvote myself. When I’m no longer contributing to the original discussion (like I’m talking with someone and we get somewhat off topic), I don’t upvote myself anymore.
It’s more about what order a new person should see stuff!
I’m not endorsing their behaviour, but I can imagine myself doing something similar to Pips. I’m just hoping to show an alternative perspective here, maybe it’ll make the spam more tolerable for you lol.
I follow basically all the warhammer hobby magazines/communities I come across. They’re all still growing, some a little quicker, but honestly there isn’t a single clear winner. Since they basically all would benefit from more content and activity, shouldn’t I post to several admittedly very overlapping groups?
There’s only so much content I can contribute as a single user. I either make an OC post when I’ve painted something up, or I’ll link like the one or two noteworthy news articles for this week lmao. I can’t create bespoke content for each instance.
I do want them all of them to succeed, or any one of them to succeed. They’re all starving for content most days. But right now, the fediverse just doesn’t have the critical mass yet. So how should we grow it?
Eventually, a clear winner will emerge, and I’ll probably prune my subscriptions list. But we’re in the spring of the fediverse, it’s just too early to tell which sprouts will flower best.
I love your question! I think these words are examples of a trochee!
In English poetic metre and modern linguistics, a trochee (/ˈtroʊkiː/) is a metrical foot consisting of a stressed syllable followed by an unstressed one.
It’s usually easy to recognize a word that’s a trochee because it’ll sound like kids TV show title: Teenage Mutant Ninja Power Ranger Mega Turtles lol.
In this case, it’s trochaic dimeter because there’s two trochees. “LET’S-go RAN-gers!” You may have heard of iambic pentameter, somehow that one always seems popular to people. Well an iamb is just the reverse of a trochee, and pentameter means you’d put five of them on each line.
Now that you know what trochees are, you’re gonna see 'em everywhere. Or maybe that’s just me lol.
Edit: For extra fun, what do you think is going on with the clapping afterwards? I feel like we’re doing something with this at the end, but it’s late and I should go to sleep hahah. Good luck!
@effingjoe Ooh, yeah the autofill is a really good idea! 'Cause sometimes a post is relevant to the magazine, but doesn’t want all the tags from that magazine.
Okay lol so who do we talk to now to make this happen?
I think we could have multireddits by using tags, no? We’d just need a magazines tags to automatically be applied to any content in it, and then I could just have my #tech feed, my #ask feed, and my #cycling+#bikes+#bicycles feed lol.
I think it would be good to look at cross-posting across multiple magazines/communities too while we’re here. It’s an adjacent problem here, and I feel like we can find a nice solution for both here.
As things are now, if we just amalgamate 6 different /tech communities, there’s going to be a lot of duplicate threads lol. If I want to post a news article to several places, it’d be nice to be able to just list them off and click post just once. Then in the multi-feeds, it’ll only be listed once please!
Wait so when am I supposed to boost? Upvotes sort now, so I should usually upvote and boost when I think something should be at the top?
@da_g Yeah, I actually basically do slap everything in one folder on Obsidian lol. I love that I don’t need to spend time organizing folders, but I still find things easily by taking “paths” through my vault!
Ah, no [[links]]? Well. I’m a couple thousand notes deep on that format hahah.
I don’t think this is for me, but I’ve given your post a boost and an upvote! Good luck!
@Kaldo Thank you for the link, that’s exactly what prompted this thread!
I think it’s just too hard to draw the line of “not rich enough to be a concern.” Amazon instance is obviously bad. Pepsi? If they put their minds to it they could do something lol. Hasbro?? They’re greedy enough for sure.
Or what if a company starts as a relatively minor player, but suddenly get big. Steam acquires the entire video game industry or something lmao. Then we still have the same problem, they’re going to be motivated differently.
So I say we defederate all profit driven instances. They can still make magazines on our instances, if they can follow our rules. If they have trouble following our rules… Well, then I definitely don’t want them in a position to affect the whole Fediverse lol.
Has anyone used both Obsidian and Trillium? I use Obsidian, so that’s my reference point here.
Edit: Hmm, so hierarchy trees means things need to be in one place on the tree, but it can be “cloned” so it can have multiple locations on the tree. That seems like a very complicated way to day “in obsidian, you can link any note to any other note.” Am I misunderstanding anything here?
We probably should decide how much conflict we want to imagine happening here lol.
Wars from the 1700s-1800s (a couple hundred years ago from today) just aren’t thought about much during my regular daily life, but none of those were global catastrophes right.
So if we can manage to avoid major nuclear destruction, then it could be pretty tame after 300 years!
Assuming we don’t all destroy each other, then we mostly keep our knowledge base, so we don’t need to restart from a basic agrarian culture lol. Someone saved wikipedia right??
There will still be an unbelievable amount of losses from starvation alone, so we’re definitely restarting the population from small communities.
But 300 years of repopulation, and 300 years battery research might actually get us to something approaching the early 1900s again! (Around the 1930s is when about half of American households had electricity.) Cities are possible, we start getting back into shipping between countries or continents. If we add internet into this mix, we get even further!
Honestly, if we’re talking about hundreds of years (and humans don’t self-destruct) then I actually think we don’t get set back too far on the grand scheme of things lol.
