I don't think we want that. It sets some weird precedent that instances need to be lemmy-dot-something, which is both untrue and restrictive on server hosts as a barrier for entry if that becomes the universal convention.

Nice job :)
Serious question: what is it about bottom-up that is useful or desirable, compared to ones that only come down from the top?
Well, that part at least I don't think is necessary. It's a parody of a dating app, and it seems from searching screenshots the real app doesn't have units either - just the number.
Which is just fine, because the number next to someone's name being their age is clear from context.
I suspect the person you responded to understood the context, but was cheekily calling out the "technically incorrect" usage of ±
The ± symbol requires a tolerance value to create a defined maximum and minimum range, e.g 300±20 (so Soran could be anything between 280 and 320)
it doesn't mean "approximately"
But I understand this is just an inconsequential funny picture, so whatever right.
I assumed they meant 'baked potato' because 'baked potato' is what they said.
Yes, of course it will be online.
Exactly the same for me.
Notifications are allowed only when they serve as a convenience mechanism to tell me something happened in my life that I want to know about and care about.
They are not allowed when they function purely as a free interrupt mechanism to allow a corporation to monetise my attention for their profit.
Anyone with news alerts turned on, do yourself a favour and turn them off.
The news is always available - if and when you want it. You don't need to allow yourself to be barraged by it 24/7.
And after the apocalypse is finished there's probably gonna be Iike, jobs available, and plenty of empty real estate. Opportunities!
Viewers have literally zero attention span, so if the talking isn't super high speed back to back without even a single second to pause for breath, people click off or scroll past.
Same with subtitles that flash up rapidly, a single word at at time.
That's the sorry state of affairs we are now living with.

The beginning of this headline had me mislead.
I read 'creepiest publisher', and with the state of the industry these days I immediately thought it was going to be some exposé piece on a toxic culture of workplace misogyny, and sexual harassment.
Glad it's actually a cool studio doing interesting things!
