Love your illustration!👍

Having posted a lot of Reddit news, I was beginning to wonder that myself. But one of them got more than 700 upvotes (!!!) and my eyes sort of glazed over and I got upvote happy. So, potentially, yes, shame on me. On the other hand, there are a lot of folks here now who have invested a lot of blood, sweat, and tears over there, and are interested to know what’s going on, even if it happens to be going down in flames. So, depending on what people say here, I might well be persuaded to give it a rest. I think the most important thing, though, is that we have growing Lemmy/Beehaw communities which have become, and will hopefully stay, a really solid alternative to Reddit.

Hypothetically, yes. Keep in mind that even if we could travel at the speed of light it would take something like IIRC 3-4 years to reach Proxima Centauri, and even then I’m not sure there’s anywhere suitable to land. 🚀 Which leads me to: https://beehaw.org/post/546668

The nuclear pulse drive was made illegal by the 1965 Partial Test Ban Treaty

Ok, Mrs. Hedge had to explain to me what sticky caps were, and their significance; earlier I was just scratching my head 🙂

Re: The Average Redditor on YouTube–Wow, it must take quite a bit of energy to be that sarcastic all the time. Think what wonderful things could be accomplished if all that energy was redirected towards gardening or nuclear disarmament. Makes me think of the Comic Book Guy on The Simpsons.

Pixelfed? Not sure it’s supposed to be used that way…

I fortunately did not have any really bad experiences on reddit, but the one thing that really annoyed me about it was all the e-bling that seemed to adorn every page. Coins! Karma! New shoes for your avatar! Like a casino. I tried to use ublock to eliminate some of the distractions, but then I found that blocking some annoyances also would block stuff I actually needed to click on, like from drop down menus. Libreddit was a godsend, at least for browsing and searching reddit, because it removed all the junk. I can also remember having trouble doing really simple things like cutting and pasting or rewriting sentences in something i’d posted. I don’t know how many employees reddit has–probably more than all lemmy admins combined–and yet for all that they have a site that just doesn’t work all that well, for me at least.

Is there a fediverse-type equivalent for imgur?

Ah, I see…

What about “Tech Support,” or should that just be part of “Technology?”

Well, what can I say except that our bird feeder just got raided. I was able to photograph the perpetrator as s/he made his/her escape.
