The quality of posts and responses since the "exodus" is completely apparent to any longtime reddit users. Admittedly elitist as it is, the spelling and grammar by it self has been base level evidence of that. Not to mention the myriad of other ways its taken a nosedive.

Reddit has already been in decline for a long time, but from the few times I've checked since the protests it's much worse now, and quickly getting even worse. And as you said, most of the people left there do not care which is disappointing.

Unfortunately as optimistic as I was about lemmy, so far I'm not sold. Theres all of the same issues here if not more. We may have witnessed the birth and death of something really cool within a very short time (considering). Even if true options take a decade to build up I think it's too late. The experiment has concluded.

It makes me sad because reddit used to be a really cool place. Rules were about allowing truly contributive content to be disseminated. Up votes were for ideas that added to the conversation in a meaningful way. Downvotes were reserved not for points that were disagreed upon, but thoughts that did not add substance to the conversation. It was a much better community to be a part of back then. That environment just doesn't exist anymore on a broad level.

Do a good long pour of boiling water in the v60. Make sure it's hot to the touch. This won't eliminate temp drop but at least help.

Another question: is it a glass v60 or plastic? The plastic ones work much better at keeping the temp counterintuitively.

There is a "barista" style oat milk that does great with steaming. Wish I could remember the brand, but it's in the US if you're there and works really well.

Better question is how did it taste!?!?!?

 

Hi there, fresh fledditor learning the ropes around here.

I have noticed there are a couple of communities that haven't been created yet that I was a regular in on reddit. I've been thinking about starting new ones here, but don't really understand who pays for the overhead if I create a new community.

Since this isn't a centralized website like reddit, what infrastructure does a new community depend on and who pays for it?

Thanks yall.
