Ah, yes. Man made horrors beyond my comprehension.

Wow. 40 Years of progress and it still fucks up my indenting and pullet pointing in the worst ways possible. Looking forward to another 40 years of rage-quitting to go use applications that actually work.

“We asked a Chat Bot to solve a problem that already has a solution and it did ok.”

Love the dialogue here but you always have to follow the money trail. The best way to keep what we love is to bankroll our instances to keep them running and scalable to additional users without ads. Remember, if you aren’t paying for the product then you become the product. Meta has nothing without selling ads or monetizing user data. That’s their business model. As long as we chip in we can always maintain our independence. I’m fine with never seeing or interacting with content from Threads.

The ad exclaims that your husband will think “it’s better than downtown.”

What are they serving downtown that is being outclassed by this?

Keep up the great work! We believe in you! Just a reminder to everyone to help sustain lemmy.world by donating in the sidebar! If 1000 people all donated $2/month then that’s 24K a year to keep the hardware running! Reddit is what happens when you rely on Corporate Overlords to provide the services you love.

I already signed up for the $5/month Patreon for lemmy.world and I would happily do more if Lemmy really takes off. I have no issue paying a nominal amount of money to support a community that I’m part of.

I want Lemmy to grow but it’s a lot of fun right now because the people that took the time to figure this out all genuinely want to be here and have a sense of community.

The developer for RIF told me to come here. I figured that I should trust the person that created the app that I’ve used for hundreds of hours.

They have a Patreon link in the sidebar of lemmy.world 😀

Huge thanks to the lemmy.world team over the last couple of days to scale and maintain the instance! There’s a link for donating on the sidebar for lemmy.world - just a couple bucks a month can help us support this instance!

This is great. Really enjoying the vibe so far and figuring stuff out. Like the tech around fediverse and excited to see where it goes.

I recently did some Vanilla with my brother since he hadn’t splurged for all the DLC yet. It was still a ton of fun but missed having Idealigion. Just love all the depth it adds!

I’ve used RIF for over six years. It’s crazy to think about all the stuff the world has been through during that time. RIF was a huge source of community for me - especially during the pandemic. It stinks to say goodbye but all things end and I’m sure something better (maybe Lemmy?) will eventually fill the void. Really sad to see the position that Reddit has taken on all this.
