Out of curiosity, what problems are you having with the drivers? I have a GTX 1070ti graphics card and the drivers for it have been ok on Linux, the integration hasn't been as smooth as Windows but I haven't had any problems.

Yeah, the smaller communities on Reddit were still really nice, which is why I wasn't initially eager to leave. It's unfortunate that it had to turn so shitty, but I honestly knew it was coming as soon as they announced that they were going public. The stock market and shareholders are really bad at building things with longevity, so when a corporation goes public it usually starts making bad but short-term profitable decisions until it goes under.
Theoretically, something like c/deliciousfood or c/foodpics. I don't have strong feelings on this issue, but there are alternative names that would work.
During the final days I spent on the platform, Reddit was starting to become very generic. Many subreddits, despite being about theoretically different topics, devolved into a generic Reddit frontpage community. Even if Lemmy becomes a lot more popular, my hope is that the communities here will stay somewhat distinct and won't become as much of circlejerks.
Not just that, but the code contributed to Lemmy by this debugging will make Lemmy run faster for everyone on every instance, which is makes the ecosystem that much better.
I'm honestly not sure. Reddit's decision making here has been so stupid I'm just guessing their motivations.
Lemmy.world just finished pushing significant stability and performance improvements to the Lemmy codebase and to their own server, and from what I've heard it's lead to significant improvements. I agree that Lemmy is unstable, but it's also beta software undergoing rapid improvement, and I'm optimistic on where it will be by the end of the year.
I've heard before that in the early days of Reddit u/spez had hundreds of alts he would use to reply to posts to make Reddit seem more popular. I wonder if he occasionally resurrects them to support political arguments he likes or to defend Reddit admins.
Dang, Lemmy cancelled I guess. Pack it up everybody, @GamingChairModel@lemmy.world ruined it for everyone.
Maybe it's to make an example of them? Let the zombie subreddits stand as an example of "This is what happens when you cross the admins."
Not at all. The admins here are doing great work and their updates are often informative and helpful, it makes sense you'd look forward to them.
I use Bitwarden, and pay for their premium services. I really like it, it helps me keep track of all of my accounts, I'm able to keep all of my individual account passwords secure and unique, and I'm able to autofill my login credentials on all of my devices.
