Yes I think I have now noticed this, thanks! I definitely want to be connected for as long as possible regardless, but good to see that in a pinch the network can be effectively used within a few minutes.

Yes ideally I would like to do this, I just can't set that up at the moment. For now though yeah I wouldn't spin it up on my laptop if I thought I would be opening/closing it frequently throughout the day.

Yeah I believe that's a valid point of view when coming over from reddit.

People have been saying (and I somewhat agrree) that it's really analogous to how there can be multiple subreddits with effectively the same topic (e.g. r/compsci vs r/computerscience, r/math vs r/mathematics) and that either:

  1. One will dominate the other in popularity, and the smaller will be absorbed by the larger

  2. They will each cater to different aspects of the larger community they have in common

Point (1) I think has already happened on the fediverse with the de-facto piracy community being /c/[email protected].

Point (2) I believe makes particular sense in the case of lemmy, as different instances will have different themes and codes of conduct and rules of administration. Thus it might make sense for there to be different communities of the same name across different instances, as they might be about the same broader topic but differ significantly in culture.

That's actually why I made this community in the first place: lemmy.ml was never intended to be a general "catch-all" instance, it's just the instance the devs use and has always catered to their particular interests and ideologies. In fact I think ideally if there is to be a monolithic c/math then it should live on some instance more specifically dedicated to STEM, not a general instance like lemmy.world. But again, the problem has re-arisen, as there are many small "STEM" instances now but none are go-to. It's an exciting time, we'll see how it all shakes out.

No, communities on a given instance are completely independent from communities on other instances. There just happen to be two communities on two different instances with the same name (of course c/math is not the only case of this).

The federation makes it so that anybody on any server which is federated with both lemmy.ml and lemmy.world can see all the communities on both servers. This means you can subscribe to both the c/math on lemmy.ml and the c/math on lemmy.world. The fact that lemmy.ml and lemmy.world are federated with each other is inconsequential.

Yeah death/doom is my favourite little genre, and I tend to like it pure (and death metal leaning...), so earlier Hooded Menace definitely has that appeal, but damn if I don't always have a good time spinning this album.

Helps how great KD is too.

thoughts on Traveler compared to Organon?

[–] mrh 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah it definitely gives each of their albums a unique feel. Though they're not afraid to splerge within an album, like the very Autopsy Psychose toxique from R​é​purgation.

yeah I also saw them live and they completely stole the show as the opening act. Really nice guys too, can't wait for their next album!

Does anyone know if any mods of r/metal or r/deathmetal are interested in helping to moderate/grow fedi counterparts?

 

From what I’ve seen, it seems like P v.s. NP and the Riemann hypothesis are very, very difficult and will take a long time to solve. Instead, what problem has enough pieces of the puzzle discovered to be close to being solved?
