would kill the community
I’m of the opposite belief. I think some communities stay dead bc there’s just one person constantly posting articles with zero input. I avoid these “zombie” communities. Regular dead communities are more enticing to post in for me.
start one, and unsubscribe from the communities you don’t like.
This would create even more fracturing, which is already a big problem here.
Basically all articles end up commented on anyways.
No. Small communities do not get this feature, and it is my belief that they stay small because (a) no one is willing to make the first comment and (b) the feed is just full of new dead posts, or “zombie” posts.
At least that’s in my case. I get this urked feeling and leave the community whenever the feed feels “zombie”. Not the case when it’s just dead.
but I want the community to not die.
I understand this, but
I don’t have anything meaningful to say
Could this not be true for everyone else? Someone needs to start the discussion. Otherwise it will just stay dead. Imo it’s better to either leave it or come up with at least something.
That’s referring to the fediverse.
Pedantic, but this is a rant opinion post so ┐( ˘_˘)┌
Well, you can just not follow the communities you don’t like, and let them be.
I’d have to leave basically all of them, lol. I’m arguing against standard practice.
Any app that you can setup Macros with. I use Macrodroid on Playstore.
This one’s full of examples https://lemmy.world/c/bestoflemmy

These are just some random threads I saved. As others have pointed out, niche communities are (usually) the least toxic. Applies to any site or chatroom.
I much prefer it over grub. I don’t think there’s any other bootloader’s that support btrfs snapshots.
I think flatpaks are good. The performance penalty for containerized software can be felt much more when you’re not using a good CPU. So containers do not “solve” my use case.
Could you pass me a link to an example setup?
I didn’t know about it, thank you for showing me this.
How does my point relate to HTML tag metadata?
I don’t think Lemmy or Mastodon would be a good place to start necessarily. Don’t be discouraged, I just mean that I think this should be something separate, like a library,
True. I meant suggesting this idea for generally any website that uses tagging. Will update post to show this better.
As a code library it could be maintained elsewhere and let these folks keep working on their projects.
We would need a group like the Wiki Foundation to set this up. Though I wouldn’t know how to pitch this.
😔
This place is more techy, but please don’t assume. I have no idea what you’re arguing for.
That is more of an argument involving the implementation of tags in general within the federation. But to answer your question:
Let’s say a group of people were to make a post on Mastodon with the tag #girls_night. How will all instances agree on the tag being correct?
The simple answer is they won’t. If a tag is contentious, it will be like any other drama between instances.
It’s the same for implementing tag hierarchy. Let’s say there is a default setup. Then if a tag or a tree of tags is contentious, each instance can include or exclude as they see fit.
The fee could be really small but scale depending on factors like business size. Or there could be no fee outright for businesses smaller than a certain size.
There are a lot of posts about this podcast. I’m listening to it now!
If the community is purely about news, sure. Most aren’t though, and I think in that case, the poster should always be the first ones to strike discussion.
