  • i had this question a couple of days ago and today fell totally down the fuck spez rabbithole.

    found myself on the main discord where the coordinators were talking to uruguay about doing the “u” after columbia (?) declined. guess hearing that, both uruguay and equador wanted in.

    there was discussion of not stepping over the swiss flag in one of the letter because they were part of the coalition.

    these folks are dedicated - many commented they hadn’t really slept since it went live. kudos to all of them for the passion they showed today.

    tbh it was impressive and one of the best executed operations i’ve seen in a long time. very fun to see up close.

    working for a global multinational company i only wish we were this efficient internally ❤️




  • these are from a place in bellevue wa that specializes in them.

    and feiw have been all over europe & asia but japan is hands down my favorite place to visit ever.

    tokyo is a monster of a great city … foreign as you can get but amazingly easy to navigate.

    very nice people, terrific food city with a really old beautiful culture.

    all i can offer for advice is to not over think it. find a flight and hotel in your budget and just do it. guarantee you won’t be disappointed ❤️









  • my biggest tip is that if you’re on ios get wefef. great app that makes the lemmy experience beautiful and seamless.

    when you read a comment from c/all from a community you want to join you can click on the community c/link to see all the posts from that community.

    then use the three dots in the app at the top right to subscribe. soooo much easier than trying to search for a community from the web ux.

    and i guess the other tip is to just manage your expectations - reddit wasn’t built in a day and it’ll take a while for all of our niche communities to create new homes here 🥰







  • shower thoughts… and still on my first cup of coffee to more just musing than anything …

    if storage is the concern wonder if the lemmy roadmap might one day include an option to use cloud based storage?

    azure storage at .06/gb per month is likely cheaper and more redundant than local storage - even if you factor in calls to the blob which could be lowered via caching.

    cloud storage potentially might one day lead to a option for smaller self hosters to opt into a shared blob instance where the and cost is shared.

    in this scenario security to ensure the cloud blob couldn’t be deleted would need to be thought through (maybe splitting the password among multiple admins with each having one part of the whole?) but might be one way to better encourage more self hosting for them compute side of things.
