I realized that if I want more people to engage w/ content, I have to be the change I want to see. I interact w/ content more regularly as a result

Yes, a good rule of thumb is to try and submit at least one good post per day. I don't know how the algorithm works here, but over on the other site, it only feeds one post into the feed of your users if your sub is small.

Maybe you could have a setting where you indicate 2-4 instances you want it to always search. A lot of instances are like mine, just made for one or a few users and aren't going to host a lot of content.

 

There are a couple of browser extensions for the other place that show you what subreddits a given URL are posted to. If you're looking for discussion about a current link/page/site, it's very handy. Also, if you're submitting links, it's helpful to show where a given link has already been submitted and when.

Searching Lemmy instances can be daunting. An extension like this would be amazing.

I had a hard time with this and I could not get lemmy easy deploy to work. I was finally able to install on a Pi 4 with ansible using ubergeek77's images. It was difficult because of the lack of documentation.

That's the thing many people miss when they look at the right. Republican voters want this because racism is the number one reason that people vote Republican anyway.

Trump is a symptom of the disease, just like Huckabee Sanders is a symptom. The disease is that Republican voters are so weak-minded their media creates fairy tale realities for them to inhabit, because actual reality is too hard.

Thank you for this.

 

Read all about it at the above link. There's way too much to process here. This is going to be wild.

and results are increasingly becoming unusable, especially in the past few years. I can barely find the things I want to search for,

This is one of the most true statements I've read in the past years. Internet search is unusable.

I think it should be generated by participation that is upvoted. If you contribute enough quality stuff, you get one gold to give out. And yeah it should just be gold, and multiple golds would have just one icon, with a number;

Agreed. There is no benefit to the current system, the current behavior for interacting with links on remote instances.

It only leads to confusion and/or a bad user experience.

I think they mean "the failure to turn a profit as a company."
