I’m in Asia. I can’t speak for everyone but the people I know distrust the CCP much more than the US government. Sure, the US is far from blameless, but at least over here the CCP has a much worse reputation. I guess that’s one factor.

Another is more than a few people seem to think Meta is strictly a private company while tiktok is somehow being used/controlled by the Chinese government.

Thank fucking god

GD ftw. I read somewhere there’s going to be ankther expansion. Is it true? And when?

14 is the new 6. Ngl, he looks young af.

This honestly makes a lot of sense. 🤔

Yup same. I was with Qobuz until it started having issues (kept buffering even if there’s no problem with my connection). Apple music is buggy on Win 10 and sounded worse than Qobuz so i skipped it. I’m now on Tidal (fuck MQA still) but still looking for goodbetter music streaming services. Netflix can rot.

Man, Madison’s tweets took this to a whole new level. I haven’t watched the video yet so idk how bad it is considering the new info, but maybe they haven’t seen the tweets yet? Or another miscommunication happened (like it seemed to have happened many times in the past lol).

You know what? I never even thought about that. I agree 100%. That’s gonna be a tall order for companies, though. I mean, different people probably have different requirements to be comfortable.

Honestly, a much much higher salary. There are lots of things I’m going to have to deal with if I were to go back to the office; namely heavy traffic, transportation expenses, added stress, clothes (I mean, I’d have to use office-appropriate clothes whereas nowadays I have to be presentable only when I have meetings), food, waking up and preparing earlier than usual (sometimes up to 3 hours earlier!) and getting home late which gives me less free time, etc.

They’re going to have to offer a really lucrative salary for me to even consider returning to the office.

I would rather implement a way to export/import account data.

This is perfectly reasonable. I think a lot of users will be happy with this. Also, I agree with the view that lemmy isn’t focused on individual users. We have X, Mastodon, etc. for that. Thanks for the response!

First of all, I’d like to say thank you and that I appreciate your work. Lemmy is great and I’ve found a new home (at least for the foreseeable future). I first joined lemmy.ml once I learned about lemmy, and I have to say I had a good experience there. You guys even responded directly to my noob questions, and I honestly felt welcome which helped me decide to stay.

My questions are about account migration. As you may have already seen, I’m not with lemmy.ml anymore. The reason is I saw you guys stickied a post encouraging users to use different instances (since the server was having trouble with the influx of redditors at that time). I figured I’d help by first moving to a smaller instance. I have no regrets, although switching was a bit tricky since I had to start from scratch.

What are your thoughts on account migration? Is it in the works or is it something that’s a little far into the future? No pressure since I know you guys are busy with other stuff.

I should just tell our CEO then that I refuse to use Zoom and fail to show to any and all meetings as well as tasks which require Zoom? That’s it then. Privacy is saved.

Make a guess. Lol.

In my instance, we use Arch.

Jk. We’re pretty chill although we’re too small to be anywhere popular. We like memes but not really overrun with it. The admin and the owner are nice and relaxed. Not much content since we’re just a small group, but some members are pretty active in their communities.

+1 to Mint for beginners, but I’d rather go Debian (stable) than Ubuntu tbh. It’s quite straightforward and I don’t think new guys would have a lot of issues with it.

Kbin is pretty new, no apps, and faced a lot of issues during the wave of incoming redditors. Some lemmy instances did, too, but there were more of them so there were alternatives when one crashed. If we compare kbin.social to a big instance like lemmy.world, it’s not doing too bad.

Tildes is invite-only so I don’t think they wanted to grow that quickly in the first place.

I really like it. The community is also really cool. More like a small town feel than a huge city like reddit. I hope I don’t have to move anytime soon.
