Dragonflight is the latest expansion in world of Warcraft so that last bullet point is wrong.

If the number of atoms is a multiple of 3, then you can split it perfectly.

For example say there’s 6 atoms in a cake, and there’s 3 people that want cake. Each person gets 2 atoms which is one third of the cake.

Maybe try with a bit of milk. If you enjoy black coffee why go for something unhealthy like creamer?

Maybe. I think there’s a lot of dislike towards Elon out there, people are just looking for an alternative to Twitter. The recent surge in popularity for threads is just proof of that.

Not that I ever cared about karma, but I can see why some people did. It plays into peoples need to be liked. Karma associates a number with how well your post is doing. Bigger number = more people liked your post. Basically quantifying how well liked your post is and then gamifying it.

That’s true. But with a centralized platforrm like Reddit, that’s a O(N) problem. There are only N potential subreddit names. A user just needs to sort through the N names to find what they want.

With lemmy it’s an O(N^2) problem. There are N community names and each can belong to a lemmy instance, and there are potentially N lemmy instances. It’s literally a whole order of magnitude more confusing.

So with lemmy it’s mathematically more confusing. I don’t see how people don’t see this.

Pretty sure this is not correct. Communities with the same name across different instances are separate. Here is a Reddit thread about this

Also I tried doing what you suggested. I went to lemmy.ml and lemmy.world and compared by top today, and none of the posts are the same. They are two different communities, just with the same name.

I think the confusing sign up process and the clunky apps are going to scare a lot of people away. Additionally the nature of lemmy means you are more likely to have multiple fractured communities instead of just 1 central community per interest.

For example lemmy.ml, beehaw.org, lemmy.world all have their own communities for “technology.” If I want to subscribe to learn about technology updates do I need to subscribe to all of them? Do I just hope that the smaller ones shutdown and we’re only left with one?
