You don't consume one bean at a time though. The existence of a lazy or boring post doesn't ruin the good posts next to it. You can't scroll through the beans from the crappy batch to only eat the good ones.

Besides, that's still a solvable problem. I'm talking about a front-end solution, something that could be customized. Like a multi-reddit on reddit, but easily shareable like a starter pack on Bluesky. And if the multi-pack isn't to your liking, you just edit it for yourself.

I attempted to post an original comic on Lemmy to what is basically the only comic strip sub. It was probably the only comic that had been posted that week that wasn't on reddit first. It got removed for profanity. The profanity in question? "Balls".

I posted it to reddit after that, and it hit the front page of r/all. Not to toot my own horn, but that's some good fucking original content that the comic strip sub on Lemmy could have used.

While the fact that there might be 3+ communities on different instances all covering the same topic is a weak point,

I feel like there has to be a solution to that though. Some way to seamlessly consolidate subs for the front end.

I actually had a nice interaction with a mod on that subreddit just yesterday. A comment of mine was being auto-hidden. He explained why, then offered to help. Not the usual petty tyrant mod I expected.

The mods here can also be equally ridiculous. That's just a problem with internet mods in general. It's a role that attracts petty tyrants.

Oh shit. Drawing a line is a really good idea.

lamenting

I believe you mean "lambasting".

I'm old with you. I almost didn't even post the comic because my sister said she didn't get it. She's like 33... which I guess means she was 1 when Jurassic Park came out.

So what's the damage here? I can't find anything about the targets. Is this why my Xbox is having server issues?

I rewatched it recently and it totally holds up.

Reddit didn't get this one. I guess they haven't seen this really old movie.

 

See? Nobody cares.

A fake Christmas tree would be pretty confusing. Or even tree stands for a real tree. Even if you figure out it's for a tree, what purpose could that tree serve?

 

Based on a true story.
