Ask him first why he didn’t like it. You can’t convince him otherwise if you don’t know why it doesn’t interest him.

QR coding everything. It has it uses and is practical in certain use-cases, but don't use it everywhere.

What’s up with the carpet on the ceiling?

I take certification exams that are open book. I still create an index aka cheat sheet because typing it out makes me internalize what I’m reading. It’s also easier to refer to an index of a couple of pages vs several books in a time-bound exam.

A belt-like loofa that you hold on both ends and pull from side to side.

I'd give it a little more time. People are probably still scrambling to decide which instance to jump to.

I had someone at my job do something similar. He was Senior Director / VP level in tech and quit to become a full-time firefighter.

I chose lemmy.zip because it has similar fed/defed policies as lemm.ee.

• Your saved posts and comments are included in your exported settings along with your subscriptions. I was happy to discover that when I did it yesterday.

• Most instances say where they are based in their instance description. If not, you can do a whois lookup to see the general area they are in. Another option is asking in the meta community of the instance.

• Similar to the second point above, most instance owners are transparent with their infrastructure and the ones who are running small servers as hobby projects usually put it as a disclaimer.

Stupidly spammed Harden stepbacks at a pick up game 3 years ago and now my right knee isn’t the same. Swells up after just a few runs, and takes a week to recover.

I moved to .zip for the similar federation style, not being part of the big instance fighting, using the latest lemmy version, and defederated from Threads.

But man, migrating to another instance made me really appreciate what @sunaurus@lemm.ee has done. I immediately noticed how .zip, while also maintained well by the instance admins, is noticeably slower than .ee. They also have issues with image proxying for alexandrite, which .ee doesn’t have.

Not a knock on .zip though. I do intend to make it my new home instance. Rather, it’s more of how .ee was exceptionally ran.

One with your face printed on it.
