Very nice 👌 I hope we will see more applications for these protocols as time passes.

The only reason to ever go beyond warp 10 confirmed 👌😜

I can't decide who would win - the OG muthafucker or the one who is so far past and tired of muthafuckering. Either way, today is a good day to stare at people!🧿

Incorrect. Janeway already shot it all, and is now resting comfortably while ~~sipping~~ gulping coffee ☕ en route to the next ~~slaughter field~~ no that's actually what I meant yeah 👍.

One issue for me, and this is also true of Mastodon and by extension Mbin, is that I greatly prefer the voting and focus on a topic area rather than person. X / Twitter / Mastodon / Bluesky is where celebrities go to increase their profits, fame, and relevance, while Reddit / Lemmy / PieFed (/ + nodeBB + flarum + others) are where we discuss matters of import. I'm not criticizing your post here - this is definitely the correct community to discuss such matters:-) - just interjecting my personal preferences into the conversation, to disclose my own biases.

On the bright side, tomorrow is Wednesday, my dudes 😎

Hi joke, this is dad.

(Doesn't work, I know, that's why it works in this context... 🤔😅)

If Lemmy.World went away, then correct you would not "lose" the users as, well you said it, they would simply move to another instance.

But if Lemmy.World remained and you blocked it (if you had a method to do that - it's not easy at all using base Lemmy but it is doable with some older apps or like Ublock Origin filter rules and such), then in that context you would indeed "lose" all of that content. Or like if you got banned from that instance then that's another way that you could "lose" access to engage with communities located on it.

The more centralized something is, like Reddit, the more damaging it is to lose access to it, while the more decentralized, as you pointed out, the less overall effect that perturbations have upon the network.

Is it not bats trying to eat the moths? :-P

And then perhaps cats to chase the bats away? Certainly not bc they are just the cutest things evar... no, certainly not for that reason, no! :-D
