Internet forums are disappearing because now it's all Reddit and Discord. And that's worrying. in c/technology@lemmy.world

Hate that aspect of social networks as well. Someone has to moderate manually in the end, once a community is not finely curated. Since that is not pleasant experience.

Thats why I Love the idea that users have to show some merit before allowed to join a community. But that kind of system does not scale well. And social networks usefulness is all about scale. There are contradicting forces at play here.

    With the mass adaption of discord these kind of "nice search engine finds πŸ”" will become rare again.

    And I heard that reddit also has a special search engine deal with google while blocking others?

    What's a phrase you hear a lot, but disagree with? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world

    "You can not buy intelligence"

    But the product of appearing intelligent is sold: private Education. Also you need to be able to afford the right condition: Not starving to death to appear intelligent, afford food & afford some water without lead contamination (since lead in the water lowers IQ), lead pipes where used for drinking water in poorer areas ... Also research and innovation costs lot of upfront capital investment and connections nowadays.

    Yep I had a cheap no-name trumpet, it rested for a few years in the basement without proper maintenance. One of its 3 buttons was not press-able any longer ~ rusted shut or something. Meanwhile the Yamaha still worked, well oiled and all. Lesson: always unscrew the buttons of your trumpet & Yamaha Buttons do not rust that fast I guess....
