If you are a Grateful Dead fan, there are five days that are the least interesting: https://gratefuldeadoftheday.com/01-09-1965/

Jan 1, Jan 19, Feb 29, Aug 9 and Dec 25.

Those are the only days of the year that they never played a concert.

On this topic, I'm really surprised that Apple made Airtags with batteries that can be changed by the user. I'm even more surprised they used the most common coin cell as the battery

Does the community subscriber count only show statistics from that instance? For example, I have accounts on two servers and I wanted to find popular communities across the fediverse. For the most popular community, two different instances show different numbers for subscribers and users/month. For example, the top listing for these two instances is this:

https://lemmy.world/communities?listingType=All&page=1

asklemmy@lemmy.mil 10.4k 12.9k

https://lemdro.id/communities?listingType=All&page=1

asklemmy@lemmy.mil 34 8.48k

I like the silly related quote:

Build a man a fire, and he'll be warm for a day. Set a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.

Musk even encouraged people he fired to work for a competitor in a post he made in November. I don't have a link to it, but he was mocking their abilities and said that if their skills are so good, they will be welcome at another company.

Edit: found it

It was buggy and the "Subscribed" feeds weren't showing anything. I just deleted and reinstalled and it's working well now.

I like that it shows the full community/instance name with each post. That lets me see where the content is coming from. It seems hidden on another apps I've tried.

I don't understand how the middle and right pictures compare. There are ten total lanes in the middle picture, but only six in the right picture.

Following up on this, I'm hoping that some journalism organization sets up a "default" instance for verified journists to post from. It was nice having verified Twitter instances for this purpose.

I don't think that is necessarily relevant. Romania didn't seem to be in a hurry to arrest him until she made the post. I think the more relevant thing she did was to embarrass Romania into action.

SimilarWeb needs to invest a little in their presentation skills. A bar graph with no difference in the bar heights is not very interesting. And are they aware you can use more places after the decimal point? "1.7B" above each bar doesn't help at all.

It reminds me of the occasional times where a corporate email would be sent out improperly to "all" in our company. A few people would reply all: "take me off this list". Then someone would reply all to those guys: "don't reply all". Then other people would reply all:"you are spamming the whole company!", etc.

It would take an hour or so to die off, but It was kind of amusing to see people react to the chaos. I assume the bitching about Reddit will die off naturally.

I have an account on Lemmy.world and I have successfully subscribed to some communities on other instances such as lemmy.ml and beehaw.org. I can see the status of everything on https://lemmy.world/communities/listing_type/Subscribed/page/1

But some of my subscription requests to communities on those instances show "Subscribe Pending". Does each community on an instance need to give permission for me to join? Just as an example, Technology@beehaw.org and Science@beehaw.org are pending, along with Reddit@lemmy.ml and Technology@lemmy.ml. Also, all of my requests to kbin.social are pending, such as RedditMigration@kbin.social.

If I set up my private instance for the purpose of interacting with other, popular, servers, can I save my comments locally? I'm referring to comments I make on another host, such as lemmy.ml I'm trying to understand if there is a way to keep my content in the event that the other server disappears.
