It also took death of a platform "Digg" to jump start its growth.

I don't know why but when I first saw it I thought it was a row of caskets and the title still worked.

I use the domain for other things it's not just for this purpose just an added perk.

My favorite thing to do is I have a secondary domain name that is setup with a catch all email address mailbox. So when they ask for a email i just give them [email protected] and when they say i need a real email address I say it's real. The look on their face when my phone buzzes with the recept is priceless. Then promptly back hole that address

I keep thinking of that line in The Dark Knight where Rachel says to Harvey

"But the fact that they're trying to kill you, means we're getting to them."

Just FYI Firefox can be set to default to private mode. Can't steal what you don't have

Obsidian is not open source but i also think it's pretty neat.

No one was just thinking about it from high school back in the 90s

The point being made is really just the identity of user being tied to [email protected] vs @handle it seems like that concept has died with Web 2.0. Only thing I would improve of the fediverse. If communities could be merged with when a group of instances agree to form a network. Like how IRC does it with channels. I mean yeah there would be netsplits from time to time but it would cut down on duplication and increase the traffic of niche communities like the benefits of central platforms get but it's still distributed.

Exactly I would say the only thing that I find could improve the fediverse would be the adoption of open ID that way we could login to any instance of lemmy or mastodon using our home insurance. But I could be missing an obvious flaw with that.

😜 I love Cunningham's law. Yeah token ring sucked hard we used it with bnc coax cables and vampire taps at school.

I sort by new and most posts are not trash as they were on reddit. Things don't need 50k up votes to be valuable. Lemmy as a platform was the perfect blend of old school forms and reddit. Im just sad it took so long that people forgot how the internet is supposed to work.

It's like they get email is [email protected] but for anything else they say that's too hard. Hell even when I give my email they just assume Gmail. I swear Web 2.0 was a cancer.
