and it was disregarded to make facts seem baseless; so it bared repeating.

sealioning is a thing

i guess i just don’t like the fact that i’ve paid more than five-star-restaurant for my soup when there are clearly other groups that can afford more and there’s leverage that can be used to everyone’s mutual benefit.

these come from observations at the time of the reddit blackout diaspora and from watching lemmings accidentally share this information with everyone on lemmy; i’m not willing to be sealioned to look it up for you.

They’ve developed mobile apps; got Google to prioritize search results for them; and their user bases are motivated & organized enough to share & curate lists of other lemmy users.

They’ve gone well beyond what other instances do and that usually suggests that someone’s getting paid to make it all happen.

Are they in the same situation as you?

.world and .ee must be benefitting financially from your work; are they helping at all?

these goals are achievable without proxmox, but there’s nothing wrong with using it; however it will give you a much steeper learning curve if you’ve never managed KVM/QEMU based virtual machines or software defined networking before.

why proxmox? how do you intend to use mx linux, casa os, and windows? do you intend to use multi-booting with proxmox or using the each os as a proxmox virtual machine?

That would explain it, especially the multi-distro request; that’s not a thing for newbies ime

This is a tall order of you’ve never worked w bootloader’s or at least Linux wo x-windows.

If you share your intentions; we’d be better able to help you reach your goals.

the reaction makes sense; these organizations are modeled after for-profit corporations since that’s where most of its leaders come from and oriented towards simpler modes of funding like the american gov’t; this is effectively a disaster for this sort of posture and it’s hard from them to imagine any other form.

so many people use lemmy now that i’m surprised that it’s still at major version 0.

what’s your threshold for reaching version 1?

a /scaled version of new comments is what i’m looking for.

some part of me hopes that microsoft will enshitify github enough to enable decentralization like this like reddit did to enable lemmy adoption and twitter did for discord adoption.

/scaled already seems to this and it helps with the posts themselves and, yes, shows posts out of chronological order; but helps a lot with seeing posts that would ordinarily get drowned out with /new.

i was proposing the same thing as /scaled, but with comments and/or votes instead of just the posts themselves since /scaled doesn’t seem to work with the comments feed.

How would you improve it?

a way to filter out posts that have no engagement or comments from others would be helpful since the larger instances flood my feed w hundreds/thousands of news links that flood out the discourse on lemmy.
