That's very optimistic by saying, "when." It's never.

So my wife thinks we're getting shelled tonight. in c/[email protected]

If we let in a goal within the first 5 shots, it's possible. The key is to make sure we don't let Columbus get any shots in the entire game.

With the higher engagements now, can we have the linked comment go to the actual comment thread instead of the overall comments section of a post?

It's kind of annoying having to scroll through the entire comments section to find your original comment.

I'm fairly new and don't 100% understand it yet, but instances are run on servers that require money. Are we heading towards seeing ads or subscriptions to raise funds instead of relying on donations to cover overhead?

Especially with the influx of new users. Hardware upgrades are needed.

What's the point of signing up on instances? (self.nostupidquestions)

Newbie here - just wondering if there are any advantages to signing up to other instances. We can still see/comment on posts from other instances, right? Or do I have that wrong?

Edit: thanks, everyone who responded! Got it.

Is there any way for blocked communities/users to NOT appear in any of my feeds?

It's my only complaint/request. Otherwise, it's great and is now my default app.
