Just joined :)

Yes! WotShow and LOTR_on_Prime. I feel like I’m the only one who liked both shows haha

And exatheist does sound interesting

Thank you for sharing!

Old technology and thinking of how life was before the Internet usually makes me feel that way. It surprises me sometimes how far we’ve come.

That’s amazing, great job and thank you!

Definitely cool, but the price is wayyyyyyy too insane, even by Apple standards

Sup?

Ah yes, I absolutely loved Watch_Dogs! Glad I wasn’t the only one! :)

I have the same fear. There is some momentum on moving away from traditional profit-oriented outrage-dependent social media and moving to decentralized technology.

The movement needs succeed to some extent and that traffic needs to move to Mastodon, Lemmy, etc. And for that to happen, Twitter and Reddit (add Facebook for good measure) need to cause a significant exodus to other platforms.

I just hope it isn’t another Whatsapp -> Signal migration which failed to cause a significant shift in the end.

Thanks for the link! I was curious about that as well

Glad to be here!

Great to see F1 discussions taking off on Lemmy!

Happy for Mercs, they seem to be improving. Hope they can fight for wins soon, but more importantly, we need an Alonso win.

And for some reason, Redbull dominance feels more boring than Merc dominance, but that could be recency bias.

That’s great to hear! As much ss I like to bash Apple sometimes, this is a great step and I really appreciate this change

I’m excited, but at the same time worried about the technical side of things. How the load can/will be managed, what can we do to help, etc.

Yup, I agree. I’m conflicted. 7-8 years ago if you showed me this, I would be all over it. Maybe it’s the age, but I am now more cynical, I guess.

Sure, I work in tech and I do get excited at every new piece of hardware or software… and would love to try it out, but there’s a part of me which wants to stay away.

I feel like at some point I should stop from losing myself further into the “online” world and try to embrace the “real” world if you will, even though that’s easier said than done.

Yeah, I was torn between how cool it looked (albeit expensive) VS how it felt like black mirror was closer to being a reality

My thoughts exactly. Probably going to be a great visual experience (ofc, can’t say until the real world reviews drop in) and looks amazing, but not $3500 amazing.

Well said, I agree

Thank you for your comment! The was a great write-up and I have a much better understanding of Lemmy’s infrastructure.

Lemmy feels like the old internet IMO and I’m really enjoying it so far! :)
