I’m not here for celebrities and they will always flock to centralized platforms anyways, since they are all about the views.

I’ve had to block off entire instances too which I use the Connect app for.
I never found “all” browsable for any platform whether it be lemmy, YouTube, or reddit. It’s why subscribing has been so important to me, and filtering. Like on YouTube which I access through freetube I’ve disabled “trending” and “popular” since even the thumbnails were obnoxious for majority of the videos, and I blocked out channels to keep them from dominating search results. And on reddit what even made /r/all viewable was a reddit enhancement suite filter lists that was in the hundreds for blocking of communities, and even then was a wack a mole that required keyword filtering.
All of any platform will devolve into a removed show. As for niche subs. Yeah, not much that can be done about that if the user base is small.
If there’s a more active community it could be a good idea to have the community locked but have a thread redirecting visitors to the other community to help the one that’s still alive grow.
I recommend Connect for lemmy if you have Android. Can put in filters to block communities that contain any keywords and posts that contain key words. And block entire instances.
When it comes to social media filtering is important to curate out the filler you don’t want.
Oh crap. Has that been happening? That would be bad.
Lemmy.world is a general one. I’m thinking more along the lines of places like exploding heads to give an idea of a strong ideological instance.
Strong ideologically driven instances may be more invested in spreading the gospel, so depending on the frequency of posts that populate /c/all and topics that garner a lot of attention it can lead to certain instances standing out compared to more generic ones. It’s kind of becomes like someone sporting a sports jersey versus others that might just be more generic clothing as an example.
Maybe better example might be like how people assume things by the bumper stickers people have on their cars, or signs and flags they choose to display in front of their houses compared to the general neighborhood. There’s some passion that may be assumed.
I’m waiting on Linux to get proper HDR support before being able to use one for TV use. Been waiting for that for years.
Yeah, I think there needs to be a push for less of these circle jerk posts. It seem more appropriate for a meme community than something that I at least assume is meant to be about more focused discussion about Linux than a Windows fixation.
It’s possible now if you visit the same page through kbin.
Thanks for the explanation. Now I understand the dislike for snap.
Yeah, I genuinely do not understand having used Windows, Linux, and MacOS. They are making it sound like it’s trying to decipher some unknown language. Even a quick YouTube would have solved how to install a exe.
But people here don’t really care that much about celebrities being here and maybe not even their username being unique. Could probably be anon1, anon2, etc and it wouldn’t matter that much, since real identity is probably not a draw for them. Focus on regular people wanting the userbase to want to use fediverse rather than celebrities which is an off-putting first impression and point of sale for lot of people here.
You need to pivot is what I’m saying to achieve what you want.
