I’m from Australia, where we don’t tip; and yes; you have to in America. It’s likely that the person serving you needs tips to survive, so think of it as money for them directly. (even tho in most cases I don’t think they get 100%?) I make a point of not tipping at home because people should get paid a living wage without having to rely on tips. I say you’d be the asshole because customer service employees in USA need that extra money to make ends meet.
The issue is getting access to your account and figuring out how to “reccomend” communities. The way reddt etc do it is by analyzing other user data, which I don’t have. Perhaps we could manually tag communities somehow. 🤔
I made https://lemmyverse.net for this reason 😊
Cool, thanks for the redirects! :)
Hot and active has improved a LOT in the latest RC release, should be coming to an instance near you soon™
Hehe, when you run your own instance, you get certain freedoms, that might let you update the DB directly. I saw another user that set their date to their DOB, but I just set mine to my Reddit cakeday.
absolutely agreed! it’s still early-days, but as an example https://pxls.space/ has it’s source code on GitHub https://github.com/xSke/Pxls
I was more meant to create our own yearly event where we create a central “lemmyplace” instance; rather than a decentralized version, which given the data iops required, would probably not be feasible or desirable.
IIRC the place code was open source and there’s a couple of other similar versions online already.
We could organise to run one once a year or something, I’m sure.
Yeah likewise and this has been pretty great.
