  • I don’t want all of Reddit to come flooding in all at once.

    But one thing I’ve noticed is that the entire Fediverse has a lot of instance-specific stuff going on. It’s really a question of finding the right instance for you. For example, I didn’t particularly like mastodon.social as an instance of Mastodon, but I’ve found other instances where I gel with the userbase well. It’s actually made the experience more pleasant.

    If you’re willing and able, setting up a Lemmy instance for some specific community is actually a good idea. During my holiday break, I’m going to be working on setting up Lemmy for my town and maybe even a club website that I have been assigned control over. .world will suffice in the interim.


  • The other day, I realized that Apple had done things to their version of rm that made an old script I had on my work machine fail. Apparently, they stuck in something that would just reject certain versions of rm that are known to be problematic.

    It’s not that you can’t do it, it’s that you have to use wildcards now.
