Work is a fuck, but you gotta eat.
And the shared suffering builds camaraderie with your coworkers and some may develop into friends, which can provide meaning and excitement.

People who glorify hustle culture are fucked up. Don’t listen to them.

I see you’ve employed the “I am rubber you are glue” tactic. Great job 👍

Yeah, I picked that username for a reason 😭

Kids (and even adults) back then didn’t really know what was and wasn’t possible for real-time computer graphics. Like back in the time of Warcraft 2 and shit especially. SC2 maybe less so.

What an absolutely braindead reply.

Mastodon had a bad experience for that person.
Blue sky didn’t.
Their experience wasn’t unique.
End of story.

You’re doing mental gymnastics to misinterpret their argument. Nobody said they want centralized social media you absolute lemon. They want a user experience that doesn’t suck. Right now, blue sky provides that while mastodon doesn’t.

“Oh but bsky’s federation doesn’t solve Mastodon’s problem” they don’t have to solve Mastodon’s problem.

Elitist neckbeards like you are the reason the fediverse isn’t fun.

Toxic people can be blocked by your instance, or you can move to an instance that doesn’t tolerate that behavior

Honestly it kinda reminds me of blizzard games back in the day.

Folks remember the StarCraft adverts and cutscenes? Not remotely like the game.

I wonder why we gave them a pass. Probably because the game was still fun, I guess

Omg DOUBLE PEEN

Lol peen

See this is part of the problem.

Dude was like “look at this objectively terrible experience I actually had”
And you are like “yeah well that could happen to bsky in theory too, so they’re just as bad!”

I’ve been a mastodon user for almost 2 years, but I never use it because finding interesting people to subscribe to who are actually active is difficult.
I haven’t been using bsky because I’ve really been hoping mastodon takes off, but whenever I hear about how easy it is to onboard and find interesting content, I think about switching.

That doesn’t remove the toxic mod.

How many alts and sock puppets do you think the average person should have? This doesn’t sound healthy

I said it was better, just not much better.

The maintenance costs of equals is nearly zero. Scrolling over boilerplate seems like a real stretch, like saying a novel with a picture every chapter is harder to read.

I like that you can’t accidentally forget to update it, which is kinda nice but is rarely a concern.
And it’s a bit more readable, which is nice.
It’s better, but folks are talking like it’s Super Jesus and I think it’s more like finding a dollar in the parking lot.

It’s like 5 seconds to regenerate it. Boilerplate doesn’t matter, just collapse it. The only real issue is remembering to update it, if you make a change.

Like I said, I prefer for rust does it, it’s just not a big deal

We already have the same problem here. Some of our major communities have belligerent mods on problematic instances.

We’re not solving that problem, we’re just making it easier to hide from it via defederation.

If federation works the way it’s claimed to, then if we migrate even the bad parts of reddit here it should be fine.

Lemmy is turning into an elitist cesspool.

Lots of edgelords here like “I don’t want the reddit plebs here” as though they weren’t happily one of them a couple years ago.

Let them come over. Put the idea of federation to the test. Isn’t that one of the major features of federation, if there are a bunch of shitty people you can just defederate or use a different community?
If federation does what it claims then it’ll only be an improvement.

I agree with people saying not to force people here if they don’t wanna be (not that we could), but the people saying that folks still on reddit are there because they inherently prefer the reddit application UX is crazy. They prefer the content in reddit. And they have a point.

Folks here are way more insufferable than reddit. Just the other day there was a post being like “why do reddit users hate Lemmy?” And linked a reddit post about it. But the comments on the reddit post were considered, nuanced, and polite; while the comments on the Lemmy post were a bunch of neckbeards crying about how terrible reddit users are.

TLDR y’all need to look in the mirror.

Edit: typo degenerate → defederate

Why did you even bring up AI? IDEs have been able to generate equality functions for decades without AI.

It’s kinda neat to have this defined directly in the language so that compilers can implement it, but creating equality function is so low effort that this doesn’t really seem like a big deal.

Like, you define the members in a class, then you tell your IDE to generate getters, constructor, equals, hashcode, etc all in like 5 seconds.
I like it, it’s nice when the language itself defines reasonable defaults for things, but realistically you’re saving yourself a few seconds of effort.

I mean, if your IDE does it for you, is it really that much better that it’s shorter?

There are so few native desktop apps these days, it’s all on the web.
And the browser can glean a lot more about user interaction than just web traffic, like where you hover, what parts of the page you’re interacting with, etc.
That’s why I said that (combined with phone), Google probably knows more.

But it’s probably a pretty close competition
