...Won't this potentially make the last part even more complicated in terms of messaging platform compatibility compliance though...? 🤔
Then again, it seems like it would make much more sense to consolidate all their chat/messaging services into WhatsApp anyway and deal with compliance that way.
Now you can sign up to any instance, and you check what would be the recommended community to replace your favorite subs. You go and !civ@level-up.zone (yeah, I just created it). If the alien.top bots were running, the community would already have at least the 14 posts that were created on Reddit today and made to their front page.
If the posts are from a Reddit community's few actual posters and none from any of the posters on Lemmy instances, what's the incentive to switch over to Lemmy? Moreover, if someone's mainly a poster, aren't you only encouraging them to stay on Reddit and post as they know there's someone handling mirroring their posts elsewhere for them?
I've read over the discussions around this and I can sort of see where you're coming from for some of the few folks that want to lurk and browse Reddit stuff via Lemmy apps or the like, but I'm struggling to see how much it really helps different Lemmy instances draw more posters. This may help bring lurkers over, but from what I can tell, there's not much of a problem with people lurking across Lemmy, but more of a poster problem, in terms of having a greater variety of people posting and commenting.
Isn’t offline though [...]
How do you mean? I was of the impression it was.
Were you looking at one of them online, or offline in a shop? If the former, do you have a link that might help ensure one's on the same page?
but what do if u the professional? 😨
For anyone not wanting to click, it's a short video from the National Geographic channel titled: "What It’s Like to Read Lips" and it's good! It definitely reinforces how I'm not great at reading lips. 😅
Thanks! I appreciate the perspective on this, as lip-reading is kinda like "eye-reading" to me in that I've struggled to understand what's involved.
To put my experience into perspective, which might work for at least a few people: subtitles. I mean… I’ve never asked anyone else but yall arent just reading them, right? To me they just clarify the speech subconsciously (for the most part), rather than me reading them off the screen when I need them. Subtitles are weird… Who knows if this is accurate to my experience or similar to others.
This also helps me understand, as I often do watch stuff with subtitles to help better follow dialogue, and I'm usually not closely reading them all throughout.
Nice, I'll have to see if I can find a time to go see it!
Here's a recent article from the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities detailing how they're refusing to help in the form of the most recent House appropriations bill.
It boils down to the fact that the Republican party's position as being fiscally conservative typically entails reducing government spending by cutting funding to and thereby underfunding domestic programs that help taxpayers/citizens.
Have you watched Shin Godzilla as well? If so, how's it compare with that? That was the last Godzilla movie I saw and I really dug it.
On Lemm.ee you have to use an external image host and post links from them due to issues with keeping people from posting illegal imagery. Not sure how other instances have gone about mitigating that (if they have, they may just not be as cautious).
This Meshtastic, I take it? I haven't personally used it, but it sounds interesting! Not too surprising there's not much info about it though, as it does sound rather niche.
