  • They could be legit users, FWIW, and just not understanding Lemmy enough to know what an “instance” is. Nowhere else on the internet (except Mastodon) is it a “thing” to have different instances of the same site iteracting.

    Half of my comments are about Lemmy not being ready yet, or a viable alternative to Reddit. It’s not a “big lie”. I’m currently relying on the hover-over text to know where the icons are, brcause they’re not loading for some reason. I’m confident that decentralised social media will never take off, brcause the point of social media is to bring people together rather than stick them on different servers.






  • Usually there’ll be freeleech files or freeleech days etc. This alows you to download without affecting your ratio.

    Download a heap of freeleech content ans seed it 24/7. I was on a porn tracker and downloaded a few 20gb site-rips on freeleech. If 5 people download the full site off me, that’s 100gb of ratio.

    Try download some big files that you’ll be one of the few seeds of after a while. If you only download content with 2000 seeders then you’ll never get a good ratio, but if you can download some full TV series on freeleech then people will occaisionally want to watch the show and you can seed it to them

    I distro hop a lot. After using Majaro (gnome) for a long time I switched to Pop_OS for a long time. I switched back to Manjaro (Gnome) again, but after a week of use I’ve just downloaded Ubuntu.

    I’m getting basic display issues that I’ve never got in another distro (including tails!) and it’s generally annoying me. I’d rather use a distro that doesn’t require troubleshooting on Day 1
