Right now there are people who sign up with an instance like lemmy.world, who then create loads of communities, because they don’t fully understand the nature of things and can’t quite believe that the URLs for lots of different IPs are available. For Reddit, if you snagged the likes of r/starwars early on, that gave you some power. For Lemmy, it’s meaningless: if you just want to moderate 100 communities, and not spend time actually building a Community up, then you’ll just be overtaken by the Community at one of the many other instances.
Exactly this. On Reddit, you would end up with stuff like r/TrueStarWars and such as a result of bad mods moderating badly — but those communities would have a harder time taking off due to the name being less searchable, and individuals needing to be "in the know" about why one sub has "true" out the front.
With everyone being able to take the same community name, just across different instances, there's a potential for a better, more competitive process to take place instead. It won't be perfect — @starwars is going to be in a much more immediately advantaged position than, say, @starwars — but in theory the playing field is closer to being level.
No I haven’t but I’ll definitely give it a shot. I didn’t know Bill Lawrence was involved in Ted lasso, maybe I’ll try it tonight, thanks for the suggestions.
Get ready to binge the entire show! I told myself, “I’ll watch the first few episodes” and two weeks later I had watched the entire first season three times. First by myself, then showed it to my fiancee, then showed it to my best friend.
It absolutely is worth $7 for the less-than-a-month it will take to watch Ted Lasso. And honestly Apple TV has a surprising number of good shows.
Shrinking is another from Bill Lawrence that is worth a watch, starring Jason Segal and Harrison Ford.
Schmigadoon is great if you like musicals.
Mythic Quest is from many of the same minds behind Always Sunny.
And there are others that have been recommended to me that I’ve yet to try out. One of my coworkers has recommended Severance but I haven’t seen it yet.
Diablo 2 from launch, I won’t even guess the hours because it’s over 10k easy and that’s just not good. Path of Exile says 4k+ hours as well. I’m an old fart though.
It’s probably the same for me. I played, quit, and restarted Diablo II so many times since middle school. It just has a replayability factor after you’ve been away from a few years.
