    leaving Mastodon out to try

    While it's clear what's meant from the context, I've never heard this idiom. Do you mean "hanging Mastodon out to dry"?

    Drop in the bucket sounds weird to me too, but a quick check shows that it's the US version of drop in the ocean.

  • There are no bugs in Lemmy. Only happy accidents.
  • Deebster Deebster 2w ago 100%

    This is some weird throwback. Back when Lemmy was using web sockets (before Reddit blocked third-party apps) there was a bug where a page would update with different content, but replies would go to the original post (iirc), but it was fixed ages ago.

    It took me a bit to recognise that as describing "effete". I don't think you found the best definition - the main way it's used today is affected, overrefined, and effeminate.

  • How do I make my own internet?
  • Deebster Deebster 4w ago 100%

    This could have been a really interesting question if OP hadn't been so vague. As is, there's too many interpretations to answer. Do they mean the physical connections? The protocols and services like IP, DNS and BGP? The world wide web, with its sites, links and search engines?

    Does OP consider the Dark Web its own internet? Or a large corporate network its own internet? What about self-hosting a huge number of services in your own home?

    Their app and website are both atrocious. I've got a rant somewhere on Lemmy about once time it made me scream with impotent rage over the UX experience, and I'm someone comfortable with editing the DOM/scripting to fix the worst of it.

    I can see it from the three medium/small instances I just tried.

    Also, is typigraphy a typo (typi?) or its own thing?

    This is definitely the common one, even if it is a bit wordier than some others suggested here.

    I used to think typos meant that the author (and/or editor) hadn't checked what they wrote, so the article was likely poor quality and less trustworthy. Now I'm reassured that it's a human behind it and not a glorified word-prediction algorithm.

    I've had a subscription to PS Plus for years now but rarely look at the games (I need to get an external drive or be less hesitant to delete stuff). What hidden gems are there in the backlog? I have a PS4 by the way, but I think the PS5 is too new to have hidden gems.
