The other important part here is that inflation is lower this year than last. So the extra high raises last year may have helped keep up but aren’t needed as much.

As far as I can tell there’s no direct relationship between iPhone sales and the change in raises. If anything I’d expect low sales to lead to layoffs or closing stores.

The process to open a link on your home instance is just way too complicated right now. Some sort of browser presence could help redirect users to the right places.

As someone who plays WoW, “looking for group” team seems redundant.

I’d love to see some more clear tracking of where all the posts are. Not sure how best to find it. Seems like I just go to every instance and have to look through their list of communities to see it.

There’s many ways these communities could end up gathering over time given the features of the platform we have. The most likely in my opinion is that certain communities on certain instances will take off and gradually people will focus on those instead of the many duplicates on other instances. It’ll probably be quite a while before enough critical mass builds up.

It’s already laggy and unstable. Maybe more hardware and improved software will help, but it might just be hard for lemmy to grow.

Do you mean to tell me that a website called “boing boing” isn’t only written by the utmost professional of journalists?
