I am just never going back, lemmy has less content of course but the comments on what is here is just a totally different level, reddit just feels dirty and corrupt in comparison,

This , and I think the price will comedown a lot and soon, market pressure will see to that asap. We have yet to really see the economy of scale that is coming through and r&d for batteries is at a all time high. Plenty of promising developments in the very near future including the one cited in the op

But is this not the tech that Toyota is bring to market ?, they have a working prototype I believe.

But in my lifetime battery tech has improved tremendously. Even in the last 5 years charge density and speed of recharge has had massive improvements.

working fine for me , actually I have to say lemmy.world has been very stable
Lovely example of an early penguin from the travel and adventure series. ![](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/e207bd96-a1a8-4f39-aa57-aa48b4c27a69.jpeg) ![](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/a6c318e7-52e6-46db-9cd2-006834a4a59c.jpeg) ![](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/a2f6b203-09b4-4a23-b63c-a5a35fc5e18e.jpeg) ![](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/a6fe5576-f6dd-4a88-b532-ae75c08f08ee.jpeg)

I am a big supporter of Peertube it is a really good concept
Looks like someone who has actually tried Lemmy writing about it in a mainstream publication, hooray !

I have just read this entire thread and I have two observations.
1 the "tumble" discussion is unbelievably ironic as the whole public climate discussion has for years been a case of mass distraction IMO.
2 The other central discussion is dominated by someone , clearly a skeptic, and repeatably described as a troll, and although the basic assumptions taken are just factually wrong the context of the consequences discussed are more insightful that the rebuttals.
So currently the power and money is dominated by industries that do not want to change and they frustrate attempts to create meaningful global change. What change has occurred has been when money and power wish that change. Political courage will be needed to make things happen with any sort of urgency IMO

Super example of the work of the artist Rena Gardiner. Working from her home she produced guide books using the auto lithography process. The printed bound and distributed them herself. Very collectable now. ![](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/84928dde-002b-493b-aebc-42bd7d8c5518.jpeg) ![](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/a81fc404-1a08-4191-81d2-1699cff5290e.jpeg) ![](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/caaaee7d-1860-494e-87bc-75ab0c6c1dac.jpeg) ![](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/08fd4c6e-7e9c-4d63-8bf0-240cd217f86c.jpeg) ![](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/a9a8eb2c-ad6d-4ea6-b69b-0ddafdc6569a.jpeg) ![](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/20d50b57-9fde-4ff1-87de-40ec98ecaeda.jpeg) ![](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/49c91291-030a-4a55-8002-264500133d02.jpeg)

Basically my heart is here now and this is where I come for social media , that does not mean I will not use reddit from time to time , but those times are getting less and less, my main reason to use reddit now is to promote lemmy. To give a better idea I spent probably an hour a day on reddit or two or three visits. Now I have not visited for over a week and recent visits have been a few minutes.

IMO it is like the foundations of the building have been undermined , I do agree with the author , even if reddit looks ok numbers wise the heart and soul has been removed.

Epic post, really good advice, MInt is the way to go IMO as well, the Xfce version is perfect for my needs and really stable, indeed having dabbled with linux for years this is the only version I have used for more than a year, actually just checked and I have been on mint now since 2020 with just the one upgraded installation. I actually duel boot but never actually boot into window for anything other than occasional work needs.

I have just visited reddit for the first time in quite a while , the picture imo is pretty grim for reddit. Dead subs , little actual life , and when you log out the front page is dire. I think that actual content is key here and that is where the crisis for reddit is shown clearly. Talk of the protest not working is just that,talk , in reality reddit has been deeply effected imo

My voices say that de-fed is best and I worry that not everyone will perceive the terrible consequences of not doing so. and yay for star trek :-)
I think it is really important that we do not let our uniqueness be diluted but am I wrong?

This is so Elon playbook , send in the lawyers and see what happens. TBH these games are irreverent to normal people, lets de-fed from any corporate instance and just build a better community
phil299 Now • 98%
My gut tells me we should defed all corporate instances as a matter of policy. Our uniqueness is at jeopardy , think of threads like the borg.

I guess IF the fediverse decided universally not to fed and moved the code away from threads adding features say meta did not want, then they would be seen as de-facto gatekeeper again.

Decent instance? Not sure that is the right question as all channels on any instance are equally visible. So from a viewer point of view any instance with good uptime and open registrations that you feel confident will have longevity will do.
If you are uploading than all the above and decent upload quotas are the key imo.
Activity levels are not really the point I think
