I would rather implement a way to export/import account data.
This is perfectly reasonable. I think a lot of users will be happy with this. Also, I agree with the view that lemmy isn't focused on individual users. We have X, Mastodon, etc. for that. Thanks for the response!
I see Empress is still subtle and classy as always.
First of all, I'd like to say thank you and that I appreciate your work. Lemmy is great and I've found a new home (at least for the foreseeable future). I first joined lemmy.ml once I learned about lemmy, and I have to say I had a good experience there. You guys even responded directly to my noob questions, and I honestly felt welcome which helped me decide to stay.
My questions are about account migration. As you may have already seen, I'm not with lemmy.ml anymore. The reason is I saw you guys stickied a post encouraging users to use different instances (since the server was having trouble with the influx of redditors at that time). I figured I'd help by first moving to a smaller instance. I have no regrets, although switching was a bit tricky since I had to start from scratch.
What are your thoughts on account migration? Is it in the works or is it something that's a little far into the future? No pressure since I know you guys are busy with other stuff.
I'm not saying you're wrong, but I probably won't add the blackmail stuff. I'm still thinking how to go about it, tbh. Last time I brought it up was when they were thinking of switching due to cost and I mentioned the privacy issues. I think Zoom recording meetings would at least give them pause (I hope), but I still need to make it as believable as possible and give an alternative that's already widely used (for customers and clients).
Just finished watching it maybe ~2 hours ago. I agree with the 7/10. There were parts that were boring (and imo cringey), but overall it was interesting. Nothing game breaking and could be better, but still a good watch.
I'm in Asia. Idk how our company is going to handle this (or if they care) but we do have a meeting this week so I may mention it again (if I get a chance to).
Not to mention saying "just stop using Zoom" is pretty dumb if your company insists on using it. I've lobbied for other apps to be used with my company but they didn't budge mainly because we'll have to convince ALL our customers and clients to use whatever service we use as well.
I should just tell our CEO then that I refuse to use Zoom and fail to show to any and all meetings as well as tasks which require Zoom? That's it then. Privacy is saved.
Make a guess. Lol.
15:00 CEST. That's the time they'll start answering questions, i think. It's already Monday where I am lol.
You're absolutely right, now that I think about it. My bad. But yeah, it makes more sense to upstream and make the features toggle-able.
I do have a few questions about that post/thread. ๐ค
