Account parked for now. Using freamon@lemmy.world
It’s likely to be your language settings - most of the posts there are tagged ‘Deutsch’, but the first post in your screenshot (with the plane in between the ‘ich’ and the ‘iel’) isn’t (it’s just ‘unspecified’).
If it’s that, you’ll need to add ‘Deutsch’ as a language you understand in your user settings.
Hey! Don’t steal our memes please - we’ve only got 5 (2 if you exclude the ones about sand)
You’re in luck (sort of):
Maybe just my experience:

Very true.
The comparison I had in mind was top-level web domains - there was all these plans (e.g. .net should only be for ISPs and telecoms businesses) that were ultimately ignored.
I came across one issue moderating a lemmy.world Community from a feddit.nl account - the pin I put in a post only happened on the feddit.nl copy, it didn’t federate across to any other ones. That’s the only prob I’ve encountered so far, though.
OP also has a couple of film communities, which maybe could have been put on lemmy.film. The Internet sees an attempt to organise it, and refuses.
https://communick.com are intending to provide those services. (.news is their Lemmy server)
It’s interesting that all the replies (so far) are to you, rather than OP, because the behaviour of Lemmy is more interesting than just answering ‘No’ about their original query. So you could nuke everything in this post if your wanted to.
The ‘obvious trade-off’ part doesn’t acknowledge how much of social media engagement is driven by the urge to correct someone. So I think it’s something to be mindful of: if you say something wrong, and someone corrects you, then your choices should be: leave it be; strikethrough your text; or edit it to literally say “[removed]”, which are all better options than deleting it.
To give an example - from when I commented on an eerie Terrible Real Estate Photo with a oddly-placed chair in it:
The replies to me - that it’s an optical illusion, and that the sockets are part of building regs, have value on their own, and shouldn’t disappear just because I might get embarrassed by my comment.
I think the creators of Korean dramas are aware of the issue - the last one I watched was The Glory, which seemed to go out of its way to make its characters visually distinctive.
For me, I have to stop myself blanking it when I hear a name from unfamiliar language, and instead of thinking “Well I’ll never remember that”, force myself to take note, that’s she’s “Lee Sa-ra” and he’s “Jeon Jae-joon”, etc. I find it useful to pause the screen once in a while, to actually make sure I know who’s who, and what their motivations are.
I always took the term ‘bullshit jobs’ to refer to jobs that produce something that society doesn’t really require, and typically only exists because they need someone to deal with the output of someone else’s bullshit job.
I don’t have a problem with email verification, 'cos I just don’t use my main email account for it. I’ve signed up to 3 instances previously, and 2 of required it fwiw.
But you’ll need something to deter bots, if only because other instances will defederate you if too much spam/trolling is coming from your site.
I registered and logged in, but it didn’t make it easy
After registering, it didn’t say anything about verifying the email. When I went to the Login screen, it just did nothing after pressing the ‘login’ button. After I went to my email and clicked the verification, it came up with a message ‘saying Email Verified’, and then it let me log in, to a screen that said ‘Verify Email’. Obviously, I just had to click on something like ‘Communities’ to see the main page, but it was a bit odd.
I’m using the Brave browser on an ancient MacBook Air, if that helps.
As far as your taste buds are concerned, yeah.
Your posts all tend to have a theme.
But the issue is that 50% of your taste comes from smell.
The admins for https://lemmyhub.com and https://lemmings.world were promoting their instances on one of the other posts.
The admin for a bigger community - https://lemm.ee - has said they’ve assessed the situation re: piracy, and don’t see a need to block the community at dbzer0.
Ah sorry. You’re right, of course. I saw the word ‘fediverse’ and responded without really thinking.
I read that even subscribers on lemmy.world might not even notice that the community is blocked, so there’s not much hope for the rest of us.
programming.dev changed how active users are calculated on their instance to include voters as well as posters & commentators. It’s a massive difference - programming_humor went from about 700 monthly active users to about 7000, for example.
Viewing communities from other instances from programming.dev’s perspective will give a figure that includes voting activity.
