Keto is an elimination diet. If you need it, it means you lack the gut microbes required to properly digest other foods.

Yes, phages are the natural "antibiotic"/population control for bacteria. https://humanmicrobiome.info/#bacteriophages-phages

Antibiotics can make phages go extinct. https://humanmicrobiome.info/antibiotics/#virome

Phages were being researched as an alternative to antibiotics, but antibiotics seemed easier and cheaper, so they grew in popularity and use. Unfortunately, antibiotics come with pretty severe collateral damage.

largely to no avail

Great news. It's insane how few people seem to care about the damage occurring from overpopulation.

General poor health has been increasing. Obesity rates and rates of lots of other conditions have all been increasing. It can't all be due to microplastics.

Think they would be able to make some sort of artificial FMT

We're a long way (many decades) off from that. This blog goes into more detail with references: https://www.humanmicrobes.org/blog/stool-donors-one-in-a-million-ai-funding-potential

One of which is this page that shows the severe limits of current knowledge: https://humanmicrobiome.info/testing/

Where are you hosting this? Hetzner has very good prices. I'm running multiple websites (including a forum) on a $5/mo server, using Centmin Mod.

I agree with the other suggestion to put up a link to Open Collective payments or another similar one. There are lots, if you need I can list some.

Oh my god, this is horrible news. Reddit is a horrible website and only getting worse. OpenAI promoting them and using their garbage content to train their AI systems is alarming. This is so dystopian.

And of course it always leads back to money:

Yes, I definitely expect the human lifespan and health span to continue to increase as the science of longevity advances.

Your instance only knows about users, posts, comments and even communities that it’s already been “told about”. This is how federation works in general on other Fediverse softwares too, but specifically on Lemmy it means someone from your instance needs to be subscribed to a community in order for new posts / comments to federate.

It is definitely a big downside for a lot of people, yes. I’ve seen various discussions among server admins of how to handle it, I think some use a bot to basically sub to everything as a workaround to populate the All feed without real users being subscribed. If your server has a meta community maybe you can ask around there whether they’re planning on anything like that?

 

Futurology.today blocks fewer instances (and is blocked by fewer) than lemmy.world https://github.com/maltfield/awesome-lemmy-instances so it can't be that.

Search:

I tried to search this community before posting and when I go to https://futurology.today/c/[email protected] then click the search icon in the top right, it loads a search page https://futurology.today/search that is searching the whole fediverse.

So I click on "community -> all" and type in "fediverse" then click on this community, and it takes me to https://futurology.today/search?type=All&listingType=All&communityId=70&page=1&sort=TopAll. I see "&communityId=70" in the URL but the page still says it's searching the whole fediverse.

Are either of these bugs that I should report on github?

If I do a search from https://futurology.today/search?type=All&listingType=All&communityId=70&page=1&sort=TopAll it does only search this community. But if I use the first link it doesn't.
