In msn messenger emoticons were what emojis are today. So to me emoticons and emojis are the same… i dont what to call the things op refers to… maybe ASCII emoticons?

Edit: turns out im wrong https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emoticon

Edit: sort of wrong… emojis are also officially called emoticons

Question: did you read the article linked? If the answer is yes and the comment still reflects your opinion, please leave

Edit: thought i was under a different post 🙄

I fully agree. On reddit i would use the all frontpage to find new communities. Here it doesnt work.

The pile of gravel got me

So assuming you disable all the optional telemetry in the settings, you should be good right?

Another feature I’d like to see is instance admins proposing multi-communities, as in: multi-communities which pop up in the search results and allow you to subscribe to all the the communities grouped together with one click/touch. This way the problem of community fragmentation across multiple instances (e.g. multiple instances having a a “memes” community) would be solved (or mitigated at least).

As paradoxical as it is, I think that these open source non-profit projects are a lot more efficient than profit-driven, debt-fueled corporations.

First of all, the main contributors to a FOSS project do it for passion and do not take a salary.

Secondly, they don’t have the infinite growth mindset that pushes enterpreneurs to to spend as much as possible for maximum growth, all financed by a growing amount of investors (and debt, which costs interest fees).

If a FOSS project reaches maximum capacity, they will close subscriptions, they will throttle traffic, i.e. they will slow down growth, but they will not go into debt. Slowing down growth is something that a for-profit company would never do (at least until the interest rates were low and the investors were plenty, today idk). Eventually someone else in the community will decide to do a generous donation or open their own instance.
