Reminds me of that scene in “The Wolf of Wall Street”.
Good times.
On the internet, nobody knows you are Australian.

To tell you the truth, I don’t know who I am either. Somebody sincere, perhaps.
But if you ever read this one day, I hope that you are as proud of me, as I am of the person I imagined you to be.

Good times.
Still on that acting break, but in the meantime, you can buy a copy of “Barbie” on Blu-ray to tide you over.
Yeah! Pick somebody who actually knows tech, like esteemed Academy Award nominated lead developer Margot Robbie, for example.
(Wait, actually, no, getting involved in crypto is generally a bad idea…)
Esteemed Oscar nominated character actress Margot Robbie.
She should also have been nominated for Best Actress this year too…
Part of it could be that people post less during the holidays and there is a significant portion of people who browse sites like reddit/Lemmy during their downtime at work.
Are you by any chance my new stalker?
No, it was on that AMA you guys did months ago, and I remember things about people.
I’m pretty sure Nutomic was a Java dev before starting work on Lemmy and learning Rust from scratch. That by itself should already speak volumes.
One-Up projects like this rarely ever turn out well, that’s from my own experiences. Even though this isn’t a popular view, I still think I’m right on this one, we can circle back in say, 6 months, to see if my predictions are right.
Having a frontend rewrite seemed more critical than trying reimplementing the backend in a different language.
Remember, Lemmy had 4 years of development to iron out bugs, and this is essentially promising to make something in months that has a fully compatible backend to support all the third party apps, while adding features on top of what Lemmy has, and with a better front end with better mod tools to boot, with a complete rewrite of everything.
The scope of this project has planned for is already unviable. Suppose that Sublinks does reach feature parity to the current version of Lemmy, congratulations, the backend or mod tools is not something a regular user is going to notice or care about at all, all they will know is that suddenly, there are weird bugs that wasn’t there before, and that causes frustration.
And this project is going to get more developer traction because… Java?
I’d like to be proven wrong, but I’m very sceptical about the success of Sublinks, because it look like a project that was started out of tech arrogance to prove a point than out of a real need, I don’t work in tech, but the general trajectory of these kind of projects is that “enthusiasm from frustration” can only take you so far before the annoyance of dealing with mundane problems piles up, and the project fizzles out and ends with a whimper.
Take your shoes off. Wear indoor slippers indoors.
Don’t eat or drink anything (besides water) in carpeted areas (especially drinks with bright colored dye in them…)
If you have the opportunity, rip out the carpet and replace them with hardwood floor, because having carpet is a giant headache.
It might be that some of us are tired of seeing people who amount to real life Internet trolls like Trump, Boebert and MTG incite hatred and dictating the future of the country that we live in.
Trust me, nobody would spend this amount of money and effort if this isn’t important.
Every instance should be able to federate and defederate from any other instance for any, all, or no reason.
Eh. Credit is credit, I’ll take it.
It’s fine. I like that it’s normal for people to post multi-paragraph comments in response to a post. Gives me plenty of material to read when I’m bored, and this place. Is still small enough that you recognize people in different threads. It’s cozy, but some communities could use improvements.
Also, the other things I’ve noticed is that many of the people complaining about Lemmy being toxic are some of the most argumentative ones themselves,if you don’t believe me, you can go to their user page and more often than not find examples of them being rude or unpleasant on the first page.
Misery loves company, after all.
What’s wrong with you? They are siblings!

This person who responded to me didn’t think so. Maybe you can talk to him about it.
Currently, I think there are two main branches of ActivityPub implementations: Microblogs(Mastodon and its forks, the microblog portion of kbin), which are user centric, and group based aggregators(Lemmy, Kbin, peertube, future Pixelfed), both of which are valid implementations, however, they don’t really work well with each other.
So, I believe that the threat of Threads to Lemmy instances is really overblown for the simple reason that there is no way for a Lemmy user to browse microblog contents through federation to begin with, whether it be Mastodon or Threads.
We already talked about XMPP a few months ago, if anyone is interested in reading about some experiences with XMPP for more context.
As Australia’s only Barbi-llionaire, I vote to replace her portrait with a funny portrait of me in the exhibition instead.
