If it wasn’t Meta, I would almost be okay with this. If I genuinely believed that my privacy was being preserved, I think it’d be a fair trade.

That’s weird, here’s just the link without any formatting. Try this: https://wondermark.com/c/1k62/

For sea-lioning, here’s the comic the term originated from to explain it

Yeah, I’m aware. There were like 10 comments with no replies, so I thought it’d be fun to see what the Chatbot would say. I didn’t take its answer too seriously, but I knew people might be sensitive to the answer. It would have been unfair of me to not say that it was though. Now people can at least decide whether or not to discard the information by providing a “source”.

I understand why they do that. I wanted to do that too with the communities I’ve made. I noticed there wasn’t a community for me to visit here that I used to frequent on reddit, and made a community so that people could have a place to share.

What sucks though, is that I’ve posted more than several times to each, gotten close to, or over a hundred users, and no one is contributing (on most of them). I didn’t make a community to hear myself speak. People need to realize that the thriving lemmy community as a whole isn’t “free”. The payment of it succeeding are their contributions, even if that’s upvoting, and leaving a “good share” comment.

I was a huge lurker, and being a mod is absolutely not why I made it. In fact, once most of my communities grow large enough, I plan to hand them off. If they become actually substantial (think thousands) and no one is still posting, I’ll might just have make it to where only I can post links, and it’ll become like my personal community, since I’d be the only one posting anyways. That way moderation will at least be easy, because I hate moderating.

Edit: Man I sounded like a salty dog writing this lol

Here’s what Chatgpt/google bard have to say:

The answer is: not necessarily. Most of the bacteria on our skin are adapted to living in wet environments, so they will not suffocate. However, some bacteria may be washed away or killed by the chlorine in the pool.

From their github:

Why’s it called Lemmy?

• Lead singer from Motörhead.
• The old school video game.
• The Koopa from Super Mario.
• The furry rodents.

I have thought about, what if we set up a similar gold system that donated money to the Lemmy software, and the instance owner to help cover costs? I’m sure we’d collectively ruin it though.

Musicbrainz isn’t a music streaming server though? I’ve used it to tag everything with mood, and bpm, but I’m not aware of any selfhosted music server that utilizes it.

P.S. It seems like you’ve responded to this post 3 other times.
