What would swapping servers achieve?

SEO is wrong - it’s like an arms race where the shittiest party spending the most wins and every one else needs to play by the rules to even exist.

The world would be better off if noone did it in the first place and search engines could just do the job they intended to do.

Google totally went to shit in the last years with their first page often full of websites great at SEO but horrible in whatever you were actually looking for.

Meanwhile the little ultra-specific forum that had a thread years ago about your specific search and no money for SEO is somewhere on page 5 while websites just repeating the search phrase over and over with no answer in sight are at the top.

That whole industry can cease to exist from one day to the next and nothing of value would be lost - if anything value would be gained for the average person

Buying a new replacement totally is upgrading though.

That’s why it’s so rare to find phones with easily changeable batteries as most phones are like new if you just replace that.

Steam is just perfect at keeping the gamers behind them as they are only assholes behind doors to the Devs on their platform.

30% is an absurd cut for a store that has such a monopoly that if you don’t release there your game is pretty much cancelled even if you release at your own store without DRM and with additional goodies (Looking at GOG and The Witcher - they released the Gwent standalone like a year later on steam because it didn’t sell at all on GOG and then it apparently outsold the GOG version without a week)

People are just too lazy and Steam is keeping them happy enough to not bother looking another way.

Epic isn’t a good guy in any case but the exclusive deals on AAA Games they do is probably the only way to get someone to buy the game there instead of Steam

Or they still think they are entitled to a “free” search engine and don’t see the amount of resources needed for that and that it’s actually a service worth paying for, either through a subscription or through a donation-based service.

Switching one private company for another is definitely not the way to go…

That one looks great!

Last time I checked it wasn’t on any of the stores - now it’s listed on FDroid from the izzysoft repo!

A majority of people prefer living in the past (because they refuse to chance) - and that’s really fucking with out chances to have a decent future…

It’s really fucked up

Excel wrongly assuming the year 1900 was a leap year for their timestamps is my favorite bug that will never be fixed because everyone has built workarounds for this already

The implication is what the mods of that instance allow you to subscribe to (which instances they federate) and how they moderate your content.

Options as in plural? Is there more than just jerboa?

Lemmur isn’t in development anymore and that’s the only 2 I could find

I feel with reddit there’s a bigger chance for it happening than for Twitter since the network effect is smaller

A shame that mastodon seems to be soo much more “ripe” with more aps and better infrastructure than lemmy - if there where 3-4 apps to choose from already instead of just the one chances would be pretty good for lemmy establishing itself for real

Right now it just is a “too rough” experience for most people
