I spend maybe 30 minutes doing actual work on average. Then once a blue moon I get off my ass and finish my assigned projects in like 3 hours and continue to do nothing.

People think that Windows doesn’t do swap because on Windows it’s done automatically for you. Does it wear down the SSD? Yes, but so does every other write operation. Ideally, getting like 32gigs of ram so you’ll never have to use your swap is ideal(or at least use less), but not everyone can do that.

Good. Short content is brain rotting

that’s just a troll, downvote and move on

average Diablo 4 player when he’s told that he’s being actively exploited

IPv6 torrenting for the most part goes unchecked by the companies who send threat letters to your ISP. I have a US seedbox which doesn’t have IPv4 and it’s been working great with a lot of public torrents

Is it measured by $ or amount of purchases? Because if it’s $ then I’m not surprised :)

Not bad. We’re not the biggest instance but surely not the smallest one.

Welcome fledditors

For many people, myself included, paying $10 a month for some VC schmuck to buy another pina coloda while he’s resting on the beach smoking a Cuban cigar laughing about how much money he made from exploitation is a no-way. On the contrary, paying $10 once every few months to cover hosting costs for a service we all enjoy using and is not misusing our funds is something a lot are happy to do.

When I purchase something or subscribe to a service (the only subscription services I have are servers I rent sooo..) I think twice about whether I wanna spend this money because I can find a loophole around it, donating to keep my instance alive is something I’m ready to do.

I kept my reddit account until today, coping that Reddit will go back on their word and allow Apollo to continue working. Granted, it didn't. So I looped shreddit with a PowerShell script and sealed the deal today and just put the final nail in the coffin and deleted my account. Guess it's Lemmy from now on.

So they’re on step 3 of grief now?
