Hah! I didn’t even notice. Debo wasn’t available on Reddit 15+ years ago when I joined so I actually added the “re”. It took the rise of Lemmy for me to use my preferred nick. :)
That’s my bike.

lol. I’m the one who coined the term after Wadsworth came up with the concept!
Compared to what? A flat rate?
There’s some new research that shows raising pay is not great for retention. Studies say it’s better to take that money and put it into a long-term benefit line a pension, profit sharing, while life insurance with a cash out value, etc.
Raises and bonuses had about a 3-month effect.
How much power are you consuming in the closet?
What are its preferred pronouns? :)
It’s not a repost if it’s in a new platform!!!
Anyone message Ruud yet?!?
My city in AZ just passed an ordinance that requires any short term rentals to have a permit, the owner must be able to respond to the property within 60 minutes, AND there must be a verified neighbor reachable 24 hours of the day and verified.
That should put a significant dent in landlord rent seeking behavior.
A reasonable, thoroughly-explained warning from the stewards?!? Why don’t we just head down to the Winchester and grab a pint!
Microsoft who owns the game Minecraft made a statement that they will not refer their player base to reddit going forward due to their ongoing policy changes around 3rd party apps and the like.
Low-grav, insta-gib is the best play mode.

To be clear: put in your creds, let the spinny thing spin for a few seconds, THEN refresh your browser.
undefined> Close connections are more valuable than more connections.
It depends. Close connections of subject matter experts when discussing technical topics? Sure. When doing general research or looking for alternate solutions for something, you need mass. The difficulty of onboarding users into a federated environment hinders this.
Seems to me that this is the ONLY way that a user (let’s call them creators for the sake of this convo) can guarantee that their efforts are always both protected AND remain available as the creator sees fit.
If I start my own lemmy server and I’m the ONLY user, it would stand to reason that if I deprecated that server that all of my posts EVERYWHERE would instantly cease to exist (with exception of quoted posts in other’s comments). That gives me 100% of control over MY specific content contribution to this platform. So, if in the future lemmy goes the way of reddit, it’s as simple as us staging a walk-out just like we did to reddit, except NOTHING would show up on reddit anymore.
Am I missing something here? For true creators, spinning up a cheap server to host is acceptable if not expected if you want any type of control after the “Post” button is pressed.
It became the post of the year on Reddit that year. I bump into it from time to time in the interwebz. :)
