Unfortunately, I haven’t observed that. There seem to be many people on Lemmy who go out of their way to be antagonistic to other Lemmy users. Which includes downvote brigading, as the OP said.

Notice the htmlview
at the end. You can archive it.
you just write in Markdown (the same thing Lemmy uses), pick a theme, and you’re good to go
That is far too basic for most websites. It’s absurd to suggest that’s a valid alternative for something like Wordpress + Elementor.
Squarespace should be on the table for static websites as well.
How so? It’s not static that I’m aware of, unless you’re exporting it to a file after using the UI to create it?
I assumed we were talking about direct replacements for WordPress, not hosted alternatives.
Well, as you said, Wordpress does a lot of things. Shopify, Wordpress, Squarespace, etc., are certainly interchangeable/competitors to a large degree. Wordpress has hosted options and is a default/main option for many hosting companies.
You can build a full website with every major function and design option with Wordpress. You can’t with Jekyll and Hugo unless you can code.
static site? - Hugo, Jekyll, etc - just generates regular HTML
These are either vastly more limited, or they require you to be able to code.
ecommerce? - consider nopCommerce or OpenCard
I’ve never heard of these, but I have seen people say that if you want to do ecommerce you should only use Shopify, because even small differences can result in people not purchasing your products.
What would you use instead?
Ventoy > Rufus and also bypasses them by default.

I don’t understand why you and others are so mad about this. Stackoverflow is a great resource that takes significant time and money to maintain. I don’t have a problem with the maintainers making money by selling access to train AI on the data.
Having Stackoverflow as an alternative to reddit is important so that people aren’t stuck using reddit.
Keyboard nav is not a RES feature I’ve ever used. Tagging is a main one. As is subscribing to threads to be notified of new comments.
there’s an easy fucking solution: fork lemmy and adjust the federation to your liking
Ah yes, very easy. Thanks for the suggestion.
I do encourage people on reddit to come here, but as another reddit mod recently said on lemmy, they’re waiting for improvements on lemmy (like /r/toolbox, RES) before being able/willing to move over.
How would you know no one cares if no one can even see them…
“Inefficient” doesn’t seem important since if there’s no content/activity there then it doesn’t use any resources.
Isn’t it mostly text? Why would that be a heavy burden? Isn’t there an option to disable local hosting of images & videos?
I don’t agree that they are solutions. The only proposed solutions are in the new github issue that someone created.
did you just want to bitch and argue?
I want lemmy to be better. I want it to be a viable alternative to reddit so people will leave that site.
It’s not too big of an issue if you’re from big instance as people will likely look for more community to subscribe
Yeah that’s what I thought, and I assumed that shitjustworks was big enough to not have to worry about that, but apparently not. So I think this is one of the biggest problems with lemmy right now.
which makes people migrate to bigger instance, and defeat the purpose of having multiple instance
Bingo.
I’m not even subscribed to that, and even if I was, and it was a default subscription for every new lemmy.world user, I don’t think it’s a good replacement for a functional search or an all
that includes all posts from federated instances. I see lots of posts on all-hot
with 0-5 upvotes so it seems fine if it actually showed all communities on federated instances (which it doesn’t).
This works quite well usually.
I definitely don’t agree. I think this is very problematic. I rely on all
to find new communities. I don’t think one newcommunities
sub is a valid replacement. It would suffer from the same issue – people would have to spam their post to every single instances’s newcommunities
sub, which is ridiculous and not even viable.
How?
