While being decentralized certainly creates a barrier, most of the details behind PageRank (and the other algorithms in use by Google) are pretty well documented. If it doesn't already, throwing in Lemmy as a keyword should soon bring up a Lemmy intense (probably Lemmy.ml or Lemmy.World) as a top result. As people click those links, the results will go higher.

The bigger challenge is that the content you are trying to find isn't here yet. Those results on the old site were built over years of massive user engagement. Lemmy has barely had a month since people started joining en masse, and it's still a fraction of what we lost.

TL;DR: Just keep using it and spread the word. The rest will happen naturally

Look at all of the related "risks" and add them up. I'm sure that drowning is a small number, but then add in all of the deaths from scalding, acid rain, poisons (that contain water), etc etc and it eventually gets to be a very big number. Probably in the millions

I boil with salt and a bit of vinegar in the pot. When I'm done, there is a noticeable white coating on the pot, presumably calcium from the egg shells.

So yes, it gets washed.

Honestly, Spez probably does want that. AI won't destroy shareholder value when you screw it over. It will also fill in some gaps left by the real people leaving.

It's complete Dead Internet, but none of that is really a concern for them.

This isn't just a matter of law, but of technology. Part of the point of these large language models is the massive corpus of raw data. It's not supposed to mimic a specific person or work, but rather imitate ALL of them. Ideally, you wouldn't even be able to pinpoint anyone or anything in particular.

(If you're asking about a different type of AI, then disregard)

True, but getting quiet puts a point on exactly how personal their question was.

Another good one is to horrify them- get quiet and uncomfortable, and say something about how the doctors think you're infertile.

Assuming these are people you just met, of course.

I think every city/location sub is like this. It's the only one not governed by interest, but of location.

I'm trying to seed my own, but it's a Sisyphean task. And I know the only way to really get it going is to mention Lemmy IRL.

It's not a drop-in replacement by any means. It lacks all sorts of features, details, and community that I lost last month.

However, it does (mostly) hold the same place in my life. And having said that, I realize how pointless it really is if none of that really matters

There's plenty of good business reasons not to want to deal with these requests. Even if the first ones would be easier to just turn over, the 1000th, or millionth gets overwhelming

Isn't there some sort of statute of limitations here? 12 years is an awfully long time

Hmm...It's a bit too real. I was hoping for more of an "Explain Like I'm Calvin" answer

 

With so many subreddits shutting down, I can no longer see that I was previously subscribed. Is there a way to get a list of all of my own subs, so that I can find a new home for them?
