would kill the community
I’m of the opposite belief. I think some communities stay dead bc there’s just one person constantly posting articles with zero input. I avoid these “zombie” communities. Regular dead communities are more enticing to post in for me.
start one, and unsubscribe from the communities you don’t like.
This would create even more fracturing, which is already a big problem here.
Basically all articles end up commented on anyways.
No. Small communities do not get this feature, and it is my belief that they stay small because (a) no one is willing to make the first comment and (b) the feed is just full of new dead posts, or “zombie” posts.
At least that’s in my case. I get this urked feeling and leave the community whenever the feed feels “zombie”. Not the case when it’s just dead.
but I want the community to not die.
I understand this, but
I don’t have anything meaningful to say
Could this not be true for everyone else? Someone needs to start the discussion. Otherwise it will just stay dead. Imo it’s better to either leave it or come up with at least something.
That’s referring to the fediverse.
Pedantic, but this is a rant opinion post so ┐( ˘_˘)┌
Well, you can just not follow the communities you don’t like, and let them be.
I’d have to leave basically all of them, lol. I’m arguing against standard practice.
Any app that you can setup Macros with. I use Macrodroid on Playstore.

These are just some random threads I saved. As others have pointed out, niche communities are (usually) the least toxic. Applies to any site or chatroom.
Tab Stash. Don’t need nor will ever need anything else.
Psychopathy is a popular catch-all term. “Low-empathy” is better, but I think you’re just a critical person and most people don’t like criticism or self-reflection.
Ok, so I heard a thing a long time ago about information density in languages, and that there’s a specific amount of information conveyed per second which is pretty consistent across languages, even when the number of sounds is higher or lower.
This is true.
Which means that a single word in English, for instance, would convey more information than a single word in Hindi.
I don’t think that’s the right interpretation. There are words in English that would require sentences to be made for each if conveyed in a different language. But the same is true vice-versa.
Have a look at subtitles for movies from one language to any other. Translators struggle conveying what should be paragraph long sentences of context behind a single word for one language. Do not get me started on double speak.
Bulk buys
I haven’t heard of this before. How does it compare to Obsidian or Notion?
I much prefer it over grub. I don’t think there’s any other bootloader’s that support btrfs snapshots.
I think flatpaks are good. The performance penalty for containerized software can be felt much more when you’re not using a good CPU. So containers do not “solve” my use case.
Could you pass me a link to an example setup?
I didn’t know about it, thank you for showing me this.
How does my point relate to HTML tag metadata?
I don’t think Lemmy or Mastodon would be a good place to start necessarily. Don’t be discouraged, I just mean that I think this should be something separate, like a library,
True. I meant suggesting this idea for generally any website that uses tagging. Will update post to show this better.
As a code library it could be maintained elsewhere and let these folks keep working on their projects.
We would need a group like the Wiki Foundation to set this up. Though I wouldn’t know how to pitch this.
If the community is purely about news, sure. Most aren’t though, and I think in that case, the poster should always be the first ones to strike discussion.
