I deleted my Blizzard account after the Hong Kong fiasco and have not found a good reason to create a new account for any of their games.

That would be awesome! Good thing it's incredibly cheap to make :).

I hate to say it but we already need a better Twitter and Reddit alternative than what the fediverse has to offer, then. Each time a big company comes in, the communities will get thrown into disarray, eat eachother, and generally make the original 'vision' of the fediverse smaller and smaller. People will use what is easy, not what is best for their interests (at least for the vast majority). The solution is still open source, community managed and driven content, but it doesn't look like the fediverse is a long-term answer.

Walking away just leads to the mods being quickly replaced by people who will un-nsfw subs and keep them in the same state they were about a month ago... the good mods are doing their best to not be replaced by such a situation.

So what is the government "group think"? That 7 million deaths and counting is bad?

Absolutely not comparable. Inspiration and an amalgation of everything a LLM consumes are completely different things.

The difference is that they are profitting from other people's work and properties, I don't profit from watching a movie or playing a game for free, I just save some money.

It's great for reading on haha

Thanks for this! I was trying to figure out how to best replace the old "site:reddit.com" trick, and it did not quite work with lemmy with how it is federated. I hope that longer term we can get an "all" tab on lemmy that truly tries to pull from as many of the federated sites as possible to get us closer to the Reddit experience. I tried to do some research on extreme heat clothing due to the wet bulb temps in my area but r/mensfashion and most other clothing reddits still seemed private, maybe I can try searching with your solution now.

Oh ok? I feel like that makes this not a Reddit competitor then, there are far too many instances with the same community names run by different people posting different or the same exact content. I kind of get the federated bit but now if I want to find what equates to a gaming subreddit I have to search on an external website to find probably 10+ communities by the same name that I now need to monitor for a few days to see which has the content I'm looking for... that's a LOT of work to do to find a single community as opposed to using reddit where I look up gaming and then join r/gaming.

I don't think I'm understanding. This Lemmy business has been a mess to navigate, I am up to six accounts on Lemmy for different versions. What I am trying to figure out, is why can I sort by 'Top', select 'All' which says it included other communities, but the selection of posts shown with those settings has been different for Kbin, VLemmy, LemmyNSFW, and lemmy.world? If I do this on kbin for example, almost every top post in all is from kbin, same goes for VLemmy, etc etc. Where the heck can I go, and sort by all, to see the top posts of ALL of these Lemmy instances?
