they're back up now https://lemmy.world/

Yeah but it's a lot of users to lose, many people will be too lazy to join another instance

Losing the communities would have an interesting effect though

IDK, I feel like I usually get more replies here than on Reddit

This is an interesting idea, or maybe we just need people to be more willing to comment in old posts. Reddit is actively hostile to old posts, but they should work fine in Lemmy/PieFed since we have sort options like Active and New Comments. On old forums people used to continue talking in old posts forever, we could do that here no problem, the software supports it.

Comments might actually be the most valuable thing right now, even moreso than posts

The hierarchy of moderation we have here is an underrated feature

I think this could also be improved with a better search page, which shows how active the communities are in the search results so you don't have to click through them all, I think v1.0 is getting that

I believe so

• Show list of active plugins in sidebar

Exciting!

In your Lemmy settings you can disable seeing the posts and comments from bots, it's a checkbox called "Show Bot Accounts"

apparently you're not the first user that doesn't like cm0002 lol https://sh.itjust.works/post/50158198

this is basically what Ragnarok Online did with the novice class and then you have to pick a real class when you hit job level 10 lol

but I don't think this idea would work because people are lazy and this would be kinda confusing

if you're onboarding family and friends, you just choose the instance for them, you say "hey, signup here: URL"
