All communities won’t show up on instances automatically so it may be that you’re the first person on your instance to ‘subscribe’ to that community! In my experience with lemmy, you can simply add /c/community_name@instance.tld (TLD=top level domain) to whatever instance you’re at and that should pull that community in, but it could take a few seconds.

This example url would access the /c/general community @lemmy.world from lemmy.zip:

lemmy.zip/c/general@lemmy.world

I’m still learning all of this too, so I’m sure there’s a better way - hope this helps some though!

I would hesitate with WD. I’ve always been a fan of their drives but their software straight up wiped people’s backup disks a few years ago, iirc. That would give me pause before ever using their software again.

Assuming those posts actually wind up here, yes.

Well said, this was all something I didn’t really understand before reddit did what it did. It’s all crystal clear now though!

Yes this is a good callout. Kbin/Lemmy need to get better about cross searching various instances. Build in the https://lemmyverse.net/ functionality without having to browse to another site.

He ends the video with this, which I thought summarized his thoughts well:

" ‘No hit to revenue.’ (quoting Hoffman) Your 2 day blackout did nothing. But that doesn’t mean that it has to be in vain. Because you can convert that blackout into an indefinite one, at the blink of an eye. That’s what I’m doing. And that’s what I hope all of you do as well. I want you to teach Steve Hoffman a lesson. I want you to teach him a lesson that his website is not valuable because of the domain name, the servers, the API, or the brand. It’s valuable because of you."

Also, I don’t think an upvote will be ‘saved’ anywhere for you to reference later? So if you do want to circle back on the content, I guess ‘boost’ is the way to go. I haven’t figured out how to ‘un-boost’ something though
