Cheers to the community and plethora of apps available.
We should also thank Lemmy creator and contributors making it search engine friendly and instance admins to make the result appear higher (faster response, https, crawlability, etc.)
The only reason I visit Reddit anymore is because it’s a vast sea of human experience and knowledge. Usually I just search Google with “[topic I’m interested in learning about] site:reddit.com”.
I’m honestly surprised someone at this point hasn’t just ported over all the comments from Reddit over to Lemmy, since they’re basically public domain comments from the human species that Reddit is just storing. IANAL.
I’m pretty sure I’ve seen some huge, semi-complete datasets of the site somewhere. Maybe the-eye has something? That would ease the process, since the content has already been hoarded.
Also, the new posts of some subreddits are being copied live to the equivalent Lemmy communities by bots made for that purpose.
I assumed that the people over in the DataHoarder communities had archives running this whole time. There’s probably data out there somewhere, it’s a matter of getting it into a usable hosted state
These tech freaks have a mercantilist, zero-sum view of how the web works: any link elsewhere is bad and anyone else profiting is your loss. They didn’t use to think this way but have gradually built a bubble around themselves over time, losing all perspective of their own users in the process. This also explains the move of this tech cohort to the regressive right wing.
Please, for the love of the internet, never feel like you can’t contribute and keep things fun, interesting, and completely weird. That’s how we take back what we all love.
… and while there’s no reason to state the obvious I’ll say it anyway. Fuck spez
Man, i joined lemmy about 2 months ago and because there are no free apps for reddit i haven’t logged on there since then. Once people understand the instances they will feel at home.
the era of the big corpo monosite has made people forget what it's like to have more than one website, and even before that era websites didn't really talk to one another all that much. with time people will learn, and the ones who can't will drown in botspam on the decaying husks of corposites
Man this wound me up. It’s not season 11, it’s season 8.
That didn’t stop me downloading the wrong episode, time and time again. Same file, but it had completely the wrong name, and I need them all to say ELiTE or ETHEL consistently, otherwise it’s all just wrong.
4 original seasons, plus movies, plus 3 more seasons. Not sure how it ended up as 11, seems the 6th and 7th seasons are divided up into 2 parts each, maybe the movies are counted as 2 as well?
Yeah, I didn’t pay attention to those airing dates, but I see on IMDB they start season 4 on season 3’s Roswell That Ends Well and it’s a jumble compared to the production order. So 5 seasons out of the original 4, then the movies, then 2 seasons per season.
Keep in mind that your Google results are probably highly personalized. For instance, I tried googling that exact phrase (in a private window), and Lemmy doesnt appear for me at all.
And if they really decide to ban Google search indexing, Reddit will be permanently wiped from the face of the internet. It’s like going full stealth mode.
This was the first thing that came to my mind. So I tried again, using a VPN (exit server in the USA) and an incognito window. That screenshot came from that result.
While probably a valid enough test, keep in mind Google’s fingerprinting goes well beyond IP and what incognito applies. There’s a reason Tor Browser changes things like browser window dimensions every time you open it.
Can confirm, I got it as the third result on mobile if in incognito. Don’t actually get the result without being in incognito which is odd, but it’s mobile too so results are always a bit different.
Regardless, awesome to see that it’s up there at all!!
i love that i found out that if i whistle at a rising pitch from about 2000hz to 2300hz my cat will instantly stop whatever she is doing and come to me
My cat anticipates where I’m going and stands in the way or walks slowly. He seems to think if I trip on him then he deserves extra food or treats as compensation. It’s cat insurance fraud and it’s ruining the economy.
None of my cats follow me from room to room but they all do follow me when I’m outside it’s honestly pretty nice until they start hanging out exactly where I’m throwing firewood honestly thank goodness they fear chainsaws and me telling them to move it
