I’m back on my bullshit.
It would be cool if you could make your own tabs, so that everytime you subscribe to a community, you can go down a checklist of tabs you created, picking ones you think that belongs to.
Fo now, I guess the work around is to have several usernames divided by categories, but that seems cumbersome and disjonted.
I like Lemmy especially because it has not gone mainstream. I was already disliking Reddit around 2016/7 and tried to find alternatives, but nothing was good enough for me. Around 2018/9, the porn subs got pretty popular, then WallStreetBets. That brought on a massive amount of users, and the Reddit I joined in 2011 was definitely gone.
It used to be interesting, unique, and respectful.It became repetitive, predictably standard, and rude. Many subs function as low-key advertising or propaganda without users awareness. It was a hive mind. I was wanting to leave, and luckily the API fiasco happened so that I was able to find a new place.
I like it small like it is now. Users feel more familiar. Also, I love the idea of instances. If one instance has a shitty community on a topic you like, then find a community on a different instance. There’s none of that BS where mods control an entire topic. Maybe there are a lot of topics that aren’t popular here, so that sucks. Still, it’s no worse than reddit with 1+ million people all saying the same crap I don’t vibe with on a topic.
If it gets too much publicity, it may catch the eye of a regulation agency that could start an investigation, especially if he pisses someone off, and that person makes an anonymous tip to a 3-letter agency as revenge.
The creator must be shitting his pants with the publicity this gane is getting. Someone that makes a game like that is surely trying to exploit opportunities. They have to be doing something illegal, whether that be illegal business practices or avoiding taxes.
You’ll die before someone has a chance to murder you.
So did Lenin, and look how that turned out.

Pls bump me if we find an answer. I want to do that for my state as well, but haven’t figured it out. Currently, I just use a specific server in my state.
