  • I live on a fault line along the pacific ring of fire, and so building with wood was an absolute necessity for us so long, as they were structurally more lenient to the constant earthquakes. Even now I believe our old government building is the largest wooden building in the Southern hemisphere (and it’s only 4 stories tall). These days as construction techniques have changed, we’ve obviously built things with concrete, steel, brick, etc., but the wooden tradition remains strong, with a huge majority of modern houses here still being built like this.

    That aside, wood was also just a much cheaper material to build with, so it was the most economical material to use for a long time for much of the “new world”.









  • I think I have too many subreddits that I’m subscribed to for this to work! Won’t let me create a multiteddit, might have to manually create a few and do it bit by bit. Supposedly I’m subscribed to 613 subreddits and it will only ever pull 250 at a given time… This is probably a good opportunity to start fresh and only subscribe to the important stuff (although many probably won’t have communities here yet anyway).

    Does anyone know if Lemmy also has a limit on how many community subscriptions it can present?
