I’ll have you know I meow at the ship computer.

Yes, intelligence is intelligence. There’s nothing about the rest of the body that the brain is encased in that makes one more or less deserving of rights.

This is amazing

Is there a way to find the most used tags?

Sometimes I’ll start to tag something, and a billion different variations show up, so I don’t know which to use.

Mastodon is a good alternative.

Could we see startrek.website?

Now this feels futuristic

I’m with old Dr. McCoy from that one TNG episode on this one. Not a chance.

I wonder what kind of carer/child ratios they have. 1 to 10-20 seems unsafe.

I’m just going to use accounts other than my one on lemmy.world for a bit while they sort out whatever’s going on.

Aye aye captain!

All those old websites with basic html were golden. Not always in quality, but in heart.

It’s a weird feeling not being targeted with content and ads. I forgot what it was like.

I miss not having the expectation of every social media being so heavily moderated and sterile.

The old internet was like walking down a busy city street. You might walk by someone doing something absolutely batshit crazy, but you just think “Weird. Moving on.” and go about your day because getting emotionally invested would be dumb. The new internet feels like a workplace where people want to run to HR to report anyone who acts out so that they’ll get what’s coming to them.

It’s not all bad, but I miss the sort of “wild west” feeling where nothing on the internet mattered because it wasn’t real life.

Yeah, I miss finding some very barebones website called like “Gary’s Favorite Garlic Breads”, just run by Gary, who isn’t trying to turn a profit or be an influencer. He just loves garlic bread and wanted to share.

Spreading out like the fediverse is designed is good. Redundancy and crossposted content is good.

We’re seeing the biggest instances struggle with the traffic lately, so I’m just engaging more with different communities whenever they’re not accessible.

The fediverse came just in time. I wouldn’t have even heard about lemmy/kbin or mastodon if reddit hadn’t shut down 3rd party apps.

They seem like they’re trying to bleed a stone.

lemmy.world and yours (sh.itjust.works), as far as I know.

They’re well within their right to do it, but it also sucks to see a fracture like that so early in the fediverse’s growth.

I agree. There’s a lot of fear-mongering about AI, but there’s no unopening that box.

We might as well see where it goes.

The popularity of this community might finally get me into pirating, lol. I subbed out of curiosity.
