In case you didn't know, You can get lemmy posts by adding the following to a search query -

site:lemmy.world

You can replace "lemmy.world" with the lemmy instance url of your choosing (or any url for that matter).

Oh yeah forums are pretty cool. It's like a massive treasure chest you can sort through. I still enjoy using a few forums like Gamerfaqs and XDA developers.

Niche communities are awesome ! Sadly reddit is still the king in this aspect.

Maybe in a few years lemmy will reach that level or even surpass it... One can dream.

I agree with what you are saying. What I really meant is that every community should have some amount of people who think differently and see things from a different perspective. This can help widen the variety of posts, comments and even sources used for citations.

For instance, here on lemmy I've noticed a tendency for people to see things from a political viewpoint and don't hesitate to start a flame war in the comments. Maybe the average user will feel more welcome to express their opinions if they see that the existing users are open minded. Thankfully most communities I'm a part of are very nice, more so than their reddit counterparts.

P.S: forgive me if there are any logical inconsistencies in my comment. I might be a little intoxicated.

I hope more active users move to the fediverse. That way we will have a lot of variety in content and can also potentially prevent communities from becoming echo chambers. I suppose moderation will also have to be taken up a notch for these changes to actually have a positive effect.

Try zen browser. It's just like floorp but has that Arc browser aesthetic.

I was a floorp user until I tried zen browser. You should give it a try too.

That's one elaborative answer. Thank you for typing this all out. It sounds like a pain, but I think it's worth doing.

All that waiting period to get verified s crazy. Furthermore to view some profiles we need to be in their networking list ? that's even crazier.

Honestly this has been my daily driver for the past 6 months or so.

I really like it. The aesthetics are really modern, while still maintaining all the things I like about firefox.

My friends who are less tech literate swear by brave. I think it's the way they market their browser... Some of Brave's core audience don't want to install a third party extension for adblock (either they don't like third party or they just don't know they can do it in other browsers)

Also on opening a new tab, they show the stats of how much data they saved and how much ads it blocked. Some people like seeing the number grow.

All this is my speculation. There may be some other reason for it being this popular.

Afaik, archive.md / archive.today used to work but now it doesn't.

Even when browsing while signed in, linkedin will notify them about any person who viewed their profile. I know one can turn on anonymous mode, but still it will notify them.

Does anyone know a way to browse this website without being logged in ?
