  • Ha, I watch YouTube videos in the day while working, so the yin and yang opposite from you. I’ll give you one idea: seek to improve Lemmy’s traction in search engines when people are looking for real world human info on topics. Many people come across Reddit via info in search, I imagine. If very good and useful posts in Lemmy could do the same it might help.

    Could also try and be mindful about which kinds of posts are the most useful and likely to have good medium term relevance and try to cultivate them. Ones that come to mind for me are ones where people ask about and share their favorite but maybe not well known open source or niche software, or life hacks and similar. These kinds of posts can generate a lot of gem info and discussion.

  • Lords work there mate, great defense of the sunfish.

  • She’s a piece of shit.

  • Just commenting to say I empathize with your passion for the place and also want to see it survive and thrive. Sorry if my comment lacks depth, but for me my Lemmy use is the last Internet activity of the day and I’m tired.

    For me I like seeing the crap secondhand memes and stuff. I’m no haughty connoisseur of the genre and it’s funny enough.

    I’d also like deeper conversations about how to save the world, but like many others is something more than nothing to just hear others bitching into the void exasperated like me to help know I’m not crazy.

  • And only 1/8th of the way through the Trump/Vance dystopian regime! (At our luckiest)

  • They eat the most, they import the most. They’re a net food importer, I think.

  • I like to say “Slava Ukraini“ to cheer on the Ukrainians in their struggle. Is there a good such similar expression for Hungarians in theirs?

  • Very cool.

  • Maybe the calculator would be similar?

  • Great stuff :-)

  • It’s a blacklist censoring stuff, so if the domain you want to access is obscure and not mainstream you might get it. If it’s at all political in nature though, or an open discussion forum, or a news site it’s most probably blocked.

    Anyone who needs the global internet needs a VPN. The govt is so powerful with their filtering and knowledge they can block any vpn at any time, basically. You might be able to guarantee a way through if you have a very dialed in and obscure configuration, otherwise you’re just getting lucky on borrowed time.

    Only a small handful of commercial VPNs from the west work, and they are only ones that are very purposefully made with stealth and obfuscation modes. Those modes blend traffic and go to great lengths to hide the fact that it’s a VPN tunnel occurring. To punctuate that, off the shelf Wireguard or OpenVPN are immediately detected and blocked with no chance to get through at all.

    Also it varies by region, if you’re at a fancy hotel in Shanghai you might have an easier time if you’re in the countryside. Also you have an easier time on mobile networks.

    About Lemmy, it’s obscure enough I think you don’t need a vpn to browse it a little depending on the instance. But a lot of stuff in the view coming from global URLs dues get blocked, so the general experience is broken so need a VPN on.

    Generally, I need so much global internet that’s blocked all the time for work and stuff that I need multiple VPN solutions and provider accounts active at any time in case any goes down (this is very much the case recently, my usual ones not working and have to use backup ones) and am always testing out new ways. On average I have to spend 10% of my working time every just trying to get a good connection online.

  • Thank you for the post and insights. I’m a very happy paying Kagi user, for me it’s so worth it to never see ads and enjoy better privacy. The results are always great as far as I know (I’m not a pro at comparing them with Google but they seem just as good or better)

    I especially like the AI summaries (even though I’m a skeptic about over using AI generally) because many sites block my IP because of being in China and using weird VPNs and proxies, so the summaries let me know the info without having to open the page up.

  • Hot damn that looks amazing, will get one for my kid.

  • Doesn’t this just apply to Europeans in Europe? Reddit is in the US and all.

  • This is the best news I’ve heard all day. Go Honda! Fuck Musk!

  • Pro tip, seek out the “Spanish Mona Lisa” which was produced by the same art team as the real Mona Lisa as one of its pro or trial pieces and you can get right up to it, nearly. Saw it at an expo in Shanghai and the family loved it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mona_Lisa_(Prado)

  • Failing, not failed. Don’t give up! Things could get a lot worse, we’re nowhere near the bottom. They could also get better.

  • Glorius, even.
