There's a section of tarmac not in the picture where I took it and a path leading to the right at the top just below the bushes. Those steps happen near the corner of the tarmac. Myself and my kids have used them countless times and always followed the steps.

The alternative route is off about 50 metres to the left and a slow incline followed by a much longer walk.

The incline you're looking at is steep enough that any kind of foothold is going to be taken by the next person... And so it happened.

I've had this one in my camera roll since forever and it came up in a memory. There's been a fair bit of building work done there recently which I vaguely think may have damaged or possibly destroyed the steps but I'll check.

I'd bet money it's on Google maps but I don't really want to dox myself.

With federation you can have the same name multiple times, so when people search "[hobby]" they can see all of them.

Then you could have a merged view of all the [hobby] from different sources, and if a mod who arbitrarily decides to interpret the rules unfairly or err on the side of permanent bans without discussion, warnings, or recourse, you can at least still interact with other [hobby].

So scenes from the movie are going to give a Nazi vibe, but isn't about supporting Nazis.

I suppose claiming that Stalin had the right to kill people is a technically accurate form of tankie by the standard dictionary definition of that term, but that is fairly tame compared to what goes on across the Threadiverse, so much so that such a person would barely qualify unless they acted to prevent anyone else from holding an opposing viewpoint. Also, while some instances are legit tankies (namely Lemmygrad.ml and Lemmy.ml), troll instances such as hexbear.net only appear at first to be anything other than argumentative echo chambers, see e.g. Chapotraphouse@hexbear.net (defederated from on both of our instances, bc of the aforementioned trolling

I could link you so many posts to explain further - such as this classic Lemmy.ml tankie censorship problem demonstrating how someone can get banned from all communities (in other cases, even those they've never so much as heard of) on Lemmy.ml at once - but also there's an entire community dedicated to this topic at !meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works. If you are interested I highly recommend checking it out. It is perhaps the top issue across all of the Threadiverse, after complaining about Reddit of course:-).

Blocking hexbear.net and Lemmygrad.ml from my feed (when I was on an instance that had not defederated from them yet) improved my experience on the Threadiverse by 99%, and blocking lemmy.ml by a further 99%. It might be the echo chamber effect but whatever it is, the most trollish comments tend to come from those places. Note that you on Lemmy cannot do a true block of an instance - like so many other features that is something that PieFed and very few third party apps offers but Lemmy and most apps lack - but even so it might help a little.

Slrpnk.net and lemmy.dbzer0.com are widely considered actual leftist but not tankie instances, if you need a comparison.

But I decided to leave reddit in 2023 with the API changes, and I've resisted going back. I like Lemmy, but I feel like I just have to keep my feed set to all, whereas on reddit I had a highly curated list of subs.

As for reddit, there's not really much left to make on Reddit anymore. Almost every name is taken and sat on by moderators - and it's pretty hard to meaningfully advertise any new community.

Not that I think Scuba Diving has enough base users on the Fediverse to begin with at this point. Most of those users subscribed are likely abandoned accounts.

There are 39 total posts between them, but the one tied with the most posts has zero active users. The one with the most comments ranks 3rd in posts and only has one active user. The one with the most active user only has 2 comments according to the search.

If I search the same term on sync while signed into .world, I get different communities and very different user counts for those that are in both searches:

None of these communities are really active. But between them they would have had have the user base to get it going. Finding a community and getting the critical mass needed for it to thrive is made much harder with this amount of fragmentation.

Plus, my head cannon is that Severance is based entirely on the Tuvix incident.

Oddly enough subs like anime_titties (which was non-US based global-only news with the sub’s title used to keep the 50-cent Army from seeing it as the Great Firewall doesn’t like anime_titties) also went down my feed list.

This is actually not quite correct. It may be a side effect but originally that sub was created because moderation sucked in a different global news sub. If I remember correctly that sub started getting flooded with lewd anime so the new sub was created for global news but named ironically in the tradition of r\marijuanaenthusiasts and r\trees

People go to Reddit with hard questions (an other things) they want to crowdsource

People don't come to Lemmy with it, but other than not knowing which tech forum to ask it in, there's no reason they can't.

I thought its whole loophole thing was that it was legal which is why something that disgusting wasn't removed.

I don't know how they didn't remove something that was actually illegal from the site earlier. Double gross. Evil. Ew.

I doubly don't understand why something that was illegal wasn't removed WAY earlier.
