I wonder if Elon chose a timeframe of 5 years because Yann LeCun won the Turing Award in 2018.

MAUs are counted by commenters and posters. The stats could just as well show that there are fewer people engaging for the sake of engagement, which was a huge problem last summer.

When have the titles of entertainment ever been about anything but drawing in an audience? Do you also get mad at the title of movie “Who Framed Rodger Rabbit?”, or do movies have a pass? What about “Who’s afraid of Virginia Woolf?” These are all entertainment that use a question for the title, even if the answers are not the reason to watch this.

That’s one way to look at it. Another way is to see it as entertainment trying to get you to watch, not a lecture trying to be concise.

Also, the question in the title has an answer which I think is far more interesting than the one given in the comment a few levels above this, and that is the answer the video gives. Sometimes the story told on the way to giving an answer can be more interesting than the actual answer, and this video, as a bonus, goes through the basics of DNS in a way that is digestible for a casual viewer. In my opinion, these are all more interesting than a guy writing “it’s .de”, and are all valid reasons for the video to be titles as it is.

If you had watched the video instead you would know that this isn’t really the point of it.

I for one like an open and public forum that allows for opinions I don’t agree with. A diversity of opinion definitely seems like a big plus to me.

This man is willing to pay for a search engine, but not willing to pay for entertainment lmao

How does this work? I’ve been considering using a Raspberry Pi for Pihole, but I’ve been discouraged as it wouldn’t work for YouTube anyways. How I understand it is that Pihole is DNS, which just blocks certain domains. Since Youtube ads and videos are indistinguishable from a networking POV, it won’t be able to block them. Am I wrong? Is there something I have misunderstood?

It might have to do with the release of the app “Boost for Lemmy”.

Avelon on iOS, mlmym on web at the moment. Still looking for a UI that let’s me show the local feed of another instance while still being signed in.

It seems like a lot of Lemmy users are slightly radical american “leftists”. This is an example of this on Lemmy.world. It seems that some users see Lemmy as a forum for politicly “left”-leaning americans, not a general purpose forum. Maybe some people prefer an echo chamber?

Avelon. A native iOS app with a decently active developer. Has all features i would expect from a Lemmy app at this point.

I also tried Voyager, but it seemed a bit off to me.

Thanks. That’s definitely the best frontend available for me.

One thing I could use is a good desktop web frontend. On desktop I’d much rather browse Reddit(old+res) than any of the clients I have found. All of the clients are missing usable keyboard navigation, or the interface is too clunky for my monitor.

Can someone tell me where this man was on September 11th 2001?

For me it’s laziness.

Imagine the survival rate without precautions. (e.g. look at Italy 2020)
