Makes me wonder just how many are active users

MAU means “monthly active users”. As you can see, the ratio MAU/users is not higher for Mastodon than it is for Lemmy.

@ozoned I see, but if you call a “reality” a dimension, what is it that you call a universe?

@PinkOwls
The math/physical concept of dimension does sometimes appear in scifi though, think about hyperspace.

The scifi “dimension” is as meaningless as “plane of existence”

Does not sound too meaningless to me, but I’m used to calling that a universe 😁

think about the sentence “the universe is a part of our dimension”

I’m trying ahah. But if you call the universe a dimension, which subpart of it do you call a universe? The observable universe maybe? I mean it makes sense to say that the observable universe is part of our universe. Still sounds strange the way it is presented by OP.

@PinkOwls
I thought “dimension” in scifi was meant as “universe”, like a parallel dimension is a parallel universe. What is the difference between the two?

@ozoned

universe is a part of our dimension

Not familiar with this concept of dimension tbh. I think that when one talks about something bigger than the Universe, they have a specific theory in mind, with its specific definition of what the universe is. Which theory do you take this notion of dimension from?

Call them whatever you want, but please not \verse. They do not form a separate universe, they talk as much with the rest of the fediverse as with each other

Obviously someone who attacks the entire mod team with no evidence would be better suited to a specifically anti-communist site like wolfballs or reddit.

Maybe also worth to note that they were not attacking the mods team without evidence, but beyond evidence. They did show evidence for admins supporting clashers coming from lemmygrad, but went way too far in labeling that behaviour “mob manufacturing”. There was nothing specifically anti-communist in their criticism of lemmy.ml 's administration

Tbh, this post illustrate pretty well the double standard it tries to denounce.

• six comments of a user get deleted over the course of two days because they gratuitously insulted the user they were replying to. They do not get any form of ban.
• a user phrases their (valid) point in a way that is too strong to the point of being insulting to an admin. They get a 3 day ban.

Also, it is pretty clear that the situation with users insulting each other is not as symmetrical as the post makes it up to be. When is the last time someone with no account on Lemmygrad had a comment removed for that reason?

I agreed a priori, which, as you probably guessed, is exactly why I put that parenthesis 😀 But I think in practice the starting point already is too complex. For example, I opened inkscape and saved the empty image, the result is already more than 1KB. Similarly, Lemmy’s very simple logo is already 3KB.

I didn’t know there was an actual limit to the size of a QR code, but as we see a big problem with (raster) images is that the QR code rapidly becomes much more complex than the image itself

I find it a bit strong to basically equate a liberal defending their liberal opinions using mainstream media sources with impersonators poblicly spamming defecation pictures …
