Substack is newsletter focused, subscriptions are for individual substack writers' newsletters (you can't access all substack newsletters with a single subscription) and it has a recommendation feature that writers like because it can help them grow their subscribers and therefore grow their revenue.

Thanks

Mastodon is not currently on the list

The problem I see with this idea is that I have no idea who most people are on "my" instance or what sort of content they're interested in. Even for a topic based instance like https://startrek.website/, outside of Star Trek, what are the chances that the interests of the members align?

The Lemmy developers were working on making user defined custom feeds. If that ever get implemented, I'd certainly give many ideas a try. But the Lemmy devs don't have any new feed options on their priority list and I doubt they will anytime soon.

The main dev (only dev?) of piefed seems much more likely to implement new ideas. For example, I had mentioned that only votes from a community's subscribers should be counted on posts to said community by default with the owner of the community given an option to count all votes. It was implemented within days.

They're going to events and taking nice pictures and releasing them to the public domain.

They could also pay for good pictures to be released to the public domain themselves.

But if someone wants to spend their time to do this uncompensated, they aren't doing any harm.

LOL I should have reread that one.

The data is not centralized, but everyone is using the same aggravation aggregation service (indexer) to access the data.

No. All of your direct interactions are with your instance which federates with others.

Don't trust him based on his prior comments

I'm not a fan of Kagi's founder, so I generally don't use it.

That's the result of referring to Lemmy as a service instead of Lemmy as a project. It was cleared up when people stopped doing that.

Seems the confusion was the many people referring to Lemmy the project as Lemmy the service. And it was cleared up when the discussion moved to instance as the service and apps for the service.

I think this is a great illustration of my point. I like the culture beehaw.org has established more than what lemmy.blahaj.zone has encouraged. And I don't particularly care about "the fediverse". I care about the online communities I engage with.

Everyone is different and I make my recommendation based on what I think the person I'm making recommendations to would like most.

I generally don't. I don't find it to be a useful grouping to reference or discuss.

Try piefed.social
Try Discuss.online
Try beehaw.org
Try programming.dev
I'm always referring to one, never the group.

Of what benefit is this for a bank? Why would they choose to offer it?

Post on the one with the most recent post.

In 2023, FBA had been the preferred choice of 82% of Amazon sellers to deliver their products.
