I meant re-read* as well. Didn’t mean to sound like an ass sorry!

Just a heads up. You might want to read the comment you’re replying to.

They’re saying winter starts on the shortest day (daylight wise I believe they mean), meaning any days after that must be longer.

I’m curious, what’s your concern with subscribing to both? I had the same thought when I switched and then thought “is this just a knee jerk reaction? I can’t think of a decent reason why it’s that annoying when they both appear in my subs feed anyway”

I’m interested to hear why others might not like it as that might be what I’m thinking without realising.

In what sense? Like which app to download?

Hmm. I’d be concerned that the lack of regulation from medicines from the dark web would cause you to take something that makes me suffer even more.

To use a different analogy from the commonly used email one, think of each instance as a country.

You are in your country, but that doesn’t mean you can’t hear about stuff from other countries.

Sometimes though, a country does something bad and becomes embargoed by your country. If this happens you can’t hear about stuff from the country your country is embargoing.

By default you can hear about stuff from all countries (federation)

A country can become embargoed (defederation)

In each country, there are towns. And towns in different countries can have the same name. When you’re looking at all the countries together this means you might want to listen to London UK and London USA.

A town can be considered a community in Lemmy, which is a subreddit in Reddit.

I just made this up so there’s likely to be some flaw in the analogy but I think it helps give you a good sense.

What are you suggesting is changed though?

Yeah this is fine if you have time to moderate a community or don’t care about it being moderated.

Was this more active than r/ski or r/skiing? Those ones rarely got in to my feed.

You should send the mods a mail to see if they have any Lemmy plans. It’s worth it just to know. Sometimes they don’t have a plan but they do know of a good alt community for you to try out

Todayilearned is here!

As you’re on lemmy.ml

This is something I think a lot of people trip up on. This community is hosted there but the user isn’t on that instane - so they would not be supported the instance they actually on… Unless I’ve missed something?

I’m curious… Is agtech doing well at the moment?

You should probably specify which country you’re referring to.

The government is also made up of different groups. Whilst one hand (security) may get more authoritarian, another hand (education) may encourage more liberal(?*) concepts, like knowing your source.

*I couldn’t think of the right word for this.

Who’s to say whose world view is “correct”. I’d say it’s more important to do as other commenters have said, encourage critical thinking and research.

The child is their own person, not an extension of the parent to be influenced.

I think the comparison is valid though. People want to know if Lemmy is a good alternative for them and you can only do that by comparing.

It doesn’t take away that Lemmy is it’s own thing.
