I mean, I’m seeing three living examples here of how much she loved C.O.C.K

Hot take: its a bigger impact on those with anxiety disorders or other tendencies to rewrite things a million times when they are “important”. I find it easy to post online because its cheap, but writing my beehaw paragraph definitely stirred up some “eeeek, I gotta say this right!!!” fears in me.

I agree that the depth and size of userbase is key. I don’t think its unrealistic to expect lemmy to have a better commenter to reader ratio, so we don’t necessarily need the scale of reddit… but I do agree more than is here now.

The coming weeks will determine the long-term course of Lemmy, I think. My encouragement to people is “read on reddit if you must, but only post to lemmy/kbin/federated”. That is easier to hold to than a “no reddit” diet, and it will starve reddit in the long-term. Its more realistic to get posters to stop posting to reddit than to get readers to stop reading. YMMV.

At least one of my primary use boxes has been running Fedora since 2003 (and Red Hat Linux RIP before that, going back to… 1996? since fedora was the successor to Red Hat Linux, I’d say I’ve got 25 years on “Fedora” at this point). I have rotated a variety of Debian derivatives on other boxes used in parallel, particularly Debian itself. What keeps me coming back to Fedora is its “stable plus really really fresh”, consistently, for a long time.
