  • Hi. I’m sorry, I didn’t mean it that way. People have put a lot of effort into developing Lemmy as both a software and a community, and it wasn’t my intention to devalue anyone’s efforts or say that it’s a lost cause. I think people should continue using Lemmy. This was just literally my stream of consciousness. I’m more upset that the original Reddit is gone and I wanted to highlight how Lemmy is not a perfect replacement.






  • So I had this idea for a long time; tell me what you think. What if we build a web crawler to build a database of YouTube URLs? There’s just so much content out there that is only a couple of years old that I feel like nobody is shown anymore. Build a nice little web UI that people can utilize with literally iframes. Basically adjust YouTubes algo to show people what they really want. Maybe get a LLM to parse the titles to determine what kind of video it is, and use it to group related videos together













  • I remember this one time I was debating going to the island on either a car, a motorcycle, or by walk-on. The car would have been stupidly expensive, walk on would have taken too long to bus, and the motorcycle seemed perfect. I look online and it’s like $38 ish dollars? So I decide to take the bike. I get there and it’s like $70. I’m like wtf? Apparently they charge for people even if you take a motorcycle on board… Even though you literally cannot take a motorcycle on board without a rider?? I just don’t get this logic. I felt ripped off. Not very clear from the website that this is how it works.
