Figuring this thing out
I honestly kind of can’t wait for the IPO, I just want to see what happens
I don’t love the idea of a neutral vote, because it would necessitate you voting on each and every post for them to stop showing up on your feed, which is actually how the “hide read posts” seems to work right now, but without the neutral vote.
And fuck it, it may be a hot take here, but I don’t dislike the idea of suggested posts showing up on your feed. It’s a great way to find new communities you wouldn’t have found otherwise, even if Reddit was a bit… heavy-handed in its approach
But yeah other than that your idea for showing the user the actual weights used for their suggestions algorithm does sound interesting, but I’m not sure how plausible it is (assuming many of these algorithms use machine learning and the weights are basically meaningless to humans)
New tetromino just dropped
Can we talk about how bad moderation here is (I’m white btw)
Is… is that a chess reference??!!
I did, but mostly I just saw that the UI was different, and it had microblogging. So Kbin, practically speaking, is just Mastodon and Lemmy mixed into the same site, but on different tabs? That’s all I’m getting. It calls communities ‘magazines’, but seeing as lemmy communities from other instances are treated as magazines, they’re basically the same? Same with the ‘tweets’?
Although it’s still missing the button to go to the next top level comment
I still don’t understand the difference between Lemmy and Kbin
I always have a case, but no screen protector, the case extrudes enough from the front to protect the screen most of the time.
I used to have a screen protector, but because it adds extra width it went outside the edge of the case and it broke. And honestly I prefer microscratches over trapped dust particles. The only reason I’d put a screen protector on my phone now would be to replenish the oleophobic coating, and I’d do it, it’s just that idk which brand I could trust to actually have a good one included.
But wait, can we see Mastodon from Lemmy?
Well, the ones on Reddit right now are going to be over-represented by people who aren’t bothered by it, seeing as the people against it aren’t there
A good chunk of those could’ve made accounts but not stayed long. And how do they get those numbers? Because there were many people who did accounts in more than one instance.
