Expand and term limit SCOTUS. This system is ridiculous

Yeah and the swastika was originally a Buddhist symbol, but when a nazi uses it I’m gonna disapprove.

I think you might be assuming that OP doesn’t know the history, when they really seem to understand how/why it’s being used in the current context.

That did it for me too! Was having the same problem

Well that’s pretty cool

 

I don’t even know how to begin to figure this out. How many communities are there across every instance (or even just among those that are federated at all)?

The four-color theorem is pretty cool.

You can take any map of anything and color it in using only four colors so that no adjacent “countries” are the same color. Often it can be done with three!

Maybe not the most mind blowing but it’s neat.

Then you click it and they bury the lede for like 8 paragraphs only to reveal the answer is something incredibly stupid

“Here’s why”

Oh but getting sucked into random bullshit is what they want

I know he says it’s pronounced “jif”, but I just don’t care. It’s like “gift” without the t

 

My other instance has been down for two days and I’m not sure where to go to see updates/discussion etc.

After browsing this community I saw a few scattered posts reporting other instances going down.

When Lemmy.World was down a week ago it was equally hard to find an explanation and/or a place to discuss what what happening.

Is there a community or website dedicated to “instance x is down because y”?

It’s type 2 fun. You don’t want to do it, but you’re glad you did when you do

 

Theoretically speaking of course ;)

If my home instance gets hacked, what’s the worst case scenario for my personal data?

 

Is it possible to automatically subscribe to all (federated) communities with the same name?

Example in the screenshot: I want to follow !astronomy, and I don’t really care whether the content is coming from from Lemmy.World, kbin.social and mander.xyz - I just want to see it all.

Obviously I could manually subscribe to them all, but is it possible to do so automatically? Ideally if a new similar community pops up on another instance, I wouldn’t miss it.

I read here that community grouping is a thing, so that instances with identical communities can work together. Is that a feature that could work towards this end?
