  • Not a bad suggestion but I’d consider that a pretty big compromise from what I’m looking for. Lemmy is designed as a content aggregator and I’d love a blog platform that makes it easy to post to Lemmy.

    But I the what platforms like Medium and Substack do is they allow authors to build a following which allows the platform to build a community. I think Lemmy is just not what readers looking for publications to follow and really dive into the current are looking for.

    What I’d like is something that you could put next to the homepage of Vox or the Associated Press, or ProPublica and feel like it looks just as much the part.








  • My standards aren’t particularly high on the apps. I’d honestly say I consistently swipe below my rank. However, I don’t really try to go out and meet people in person (yet) so maybe there’s something there.

    Also I haven’t been on Bumble and Hinge so that is worth trying. They kind of seem to have more buzz nowadays anyway.


  • I mean I’m on the app kinda to not find an LTR? I mean it’s not what I’m looking for right now, though if I do make that kind of connection with someone then yes I’m open to having it move in that direction - slowly and steadily.

    The problem I’m having with Tinder is it’s taking up a lot of time and other than a few matches and limited texting it’s not really getting me anywhere. I’ve even paid for some of the premium features, which help a tiny bit but it feels like I could be on there forever and not actually find anyone who wants to date or hookup.
