I feel like finding a good instance in the fediverse (that's accepting users) is always a nightmare.
That being said, I've been happy with the vibes on lemmy.blahaj.zone and they have a calckey/firefish instance (that's the main blahaj.zone). But it's not strictly general-purpose.
Yep, adding water is a perfectly good solution! You can do it a little at a time until it tastes right and then make a note of however much water that was.
Bypass brewing seems underutilized in pourover -- although it's pretty common in aeropress recipes. Crown coffee has an interesting post about it from a while ago.
Bypass will reduce your extraction and hence efficiency, but that only matters in a commercial setting IMO. That being said, if you want to achieve the same thing without bypass at the end, probably what you'd end up doing is using a longer ratio (more water) and then possibly needing to tweak another variable such as grinding a bit coarser to re-balance the flavor.
I feel like I'm not not missing that much at least as far as the sound is concerned.
But it is true that you don't get like the physical feeling of it (unless you have one of those weird vests, I guess).

Someone checked and there's already an existing trademark for Firefish in software specifically, at least in Europe. Apparently they make HR solutions of some sort.

Who browses the local timeline on a large fediverse instance lol.
Anyway, reality is bad and we're living in it, so I have relatively little patience for people who complain about doomposting. There's a lot of doom out there.
If folks want to only see good news, start an "only good news" community (assuming this doesn't already exist) and just stick to your subscribed communities view.
Firefox, but make it wet
(I don't know if it's a worse than "calckey" tbf)
...it doesn't.
We need the Lemmy equivalent of fediblock so we can post this for everyone to defederate
Bay Area:
It's not a subscription, but I've bought a couple of the Fellow drops and enjoyed them. Lots of independent roasters that I like also offer subscriptions (in fact, I think almost all of them do) but I tend order from lots of different places.
It's going to be incredibly necessary in the long run. Decentralized means some proportion of important communities are going to be on servers that will eventually be shut down for various reasons. Not everybody who's running an instance now will run it forever, but there may be communities with important conversations that folks will want to preserve.
Mastodon has account migration and Lemmy community migration should work similarly.
Hario or their US distributor have a storefront, thanks to which I just found out that they sell cute slash disturbing bird-shaped filters??!? wtf

And yes, lots of independent roasters carry filters. Rogue Wave in Canada has a really good filter selection including Cafec ones.
