  • I guess it’s a “right time, right place” thing.

    I mean, you’re posting on Lemmy, so even when you post interesting, well-thought-out or funny things, you’ve only got 1 to 500 people going “Oh, cool - I really like that”.

    People posting stuff on Twitter can get thousands of likes and reshares etc, and sometimes you get places like the BBC making “news” out of a Twitter post, spreading things amongst many more thousands (or millions?) of people.

    About 8 billion people have never heard of you, but most of the people on Lemmy probably think you’re ace.







  • It’s easy to get a home studio, just pick a piece of furniture you don’t use any more, and get rid of it and make a tiny studio in its place. Then you allow your studio to grow until it fills the room.

    Examples: “I could just sleep in a sleeping bag on the floor, then I can get rid of this bed and use the space for a studio”

    “If I just eat cold food, or microwaved food, why waste space on this oven, or these cupboards of ingredients. This space could make a great studio”







  • This is very badly implemented. I might be misunderstanding, but it looks like they’re not protecting children by removing far-right material or other assorted bullshit, they’re “protecting children” by collecting more personal data on all users (or viewers).

    “We want you to protect children by forcing all users (and unregistered viewers) to give you their passports and bank details, and we want you to use their telephone and laptop cameras to record their faces. Store all the data wherever you like, and feel free to sell it on/use it however you like, we totally believe you won’t do anything shady or abusive for profit”
