Portage is great, I loved the fact that you can have slots with different versions of the same package. Nowadays I'm on Debian Stable. I just don't have the time anymore.

I'm still trying to make it work for me, because I like the idea in theory. But no matter what I give likes to, I mostly get garbage in my recommendations. And the rare article that's interesting is usually paywalled.

If you sort by "active" there should be posts with more comments. The "hot" sorting is not really representative for how active users on lemmy are, since it favours younger posts over older posts with lots of comments. You can read the details of the reasoning here .

Thanks for making me aware of c/worldbuilding! It's nice to see more niche communities growing.

Make one!

I hope you get better soon!

The official webapp seems to support it, so I guess it's just not yet implemented.

Jerboa on the other hand doesn't seem to like it:

I never really understood it myself. But from what I've heard from people who are (or rather were) regular Twitter users, they like to follow celebrities or specific journalists (people who have actual interesting things to say). Those people are often not on Mastodon, though.

I think you make a great point. It's easier to make an echo chamber in Mastodon/Twitter, since you mostly encounter people you already know (or are connected to via someone you know).

Not that echo chambers are impossible on platforms like Lemmy or Reddit, but I feel like the format of Twitter/Mastodon especially encourages it.

This is great, thanks for sharing!

Thanks for the clarification! I'd like to add that this site long predates the whole crypto currency craze. I can see how nowadays the name "cryptopals" does not evoke the best associations.

I'm my opinion, the "basics" set is relatively tame. After that, the headaches might begin, especially if one wants to understand all the math behind it.

Maybe they were testing the waters first. Now that there is backlash, it was a "bug".
