American Dad up to the point that Seth stopped writing for it and then I restart. It is one of my background noise shows. King of the Hill is the filler cartoon to not start the loop instantly.

Star Trek TNG and TOS for scifi

Oh and i watch Forensic Files enough that i can typically remember who did it within the intro. Similar to the original Law and Order.

Who with be modding them?

2, this one and my obligatory one over at sdf.org cuz I am over there doing stuff all the time. I had two alts over in Reddit for specific topics but currently I don’t see those topics over here so no alts currently.

I think the majority of people want this. Posters and lurkers who want specific content. Especially for topics that don’t have a constant flood of posts. Thinking the communities where you go to actively scroll instead of reading all/new.

Maybe a solution is coming up with personal lists. Add all communities for a topic and then scroll them all together.

I second this idea. But everyone wants to be king of their own castle so either mods need to share responsibility on a single community. Lemmy supports cross instance mods so no need to have multiple accounts.

Yes, there are trees in the air in Canada…the ashes of burning trees.

Go to Communities then search and type in the full name e.g. !asklemmy@lemmy.ml

Click search and wait a moment

To know the name look at the front page for the community and its name will be under the display name (will start with a bang)

There is a group that will leave Twitter to go to Thread because a bunch of celebrities and influencers switch over. Those people dont care about anything related to the Fediverse.

The difference is that by defederating the only connection they can make is really just a facade. Users could see our posts but not reply or boost or favorite them. It would be like living with ghosts who cant see or interact with you. Makes for a crap experience.

And it also means that Meta can start sending you DMs or tagging mastodon users to push their ads or agenda. Yeah they can see your data but they can’t interact with you.

Like Lemmy Mastodon is federated so it really doesn’t matter that much. You will want to find one that has local chatter you’re interested in or policies you agree with. But after that you subscribe to everyone from everywhere else it doesn’t matter that much.

I feel like Threads is a special case. If you’re using FB or Insta you’re going to use other Meta services. If you got yourself off FB then its easier to not want to get back in bed with Meta. When people jumped ship from twitter we saw a huge percentage come over to Mastodon. There was no Bird company services that they were being pulled back to so the move to Mastodon was easier.

There will always be problems but this is a move in the right direction.

In theory one of the communities would start to hit critical mass and everyone would go there. Initially on Reddit we saw the issue where everyone wanted their sub to he the sub on a topic but eventually that cooled off. Federated will just take a little longer.

I think one thing that would help is if people creating servers would be more themed or selective on their topics. I’m specifically on an instances based on my physical location. I can subscribe to sports or tech or whatever on other servers so i wont be creating those communities here. Hopefully everyone else does the same. But if not then at least there are communities on the topic.

Honestly if people just went and created the communities they miss from Reddit people will join up faster.

I think the whole creating a sub and modding it was for a specific type of person on Reddit. Will be interesting to see how easily that will flow over here.
