I was the president and founder of my high school’s board game club and I fucking love Stratego. It took me a while to get used to the new numbering system, but I can play that game for hours with the right person.

I use Memmy and have a porn account and a non-porn account. On the non-porn account, I block any porn communities that show up in the All feed and eventually I stop seeing them.

• The top menus are buttons and look weird and cheapen the experience.
• Voting can’t be done via swipe.
• You should be able to search all communities across all federated instances.
• You should be able to browse the full list of communities for a selected instance.
• The sorter for message replies doesn’t make sense. Why would I need to sort Active message replies?
• If I check a message reply as read, their doesn’t appear to be a way to see it again.

To be very honest, Memmy is currently my favorite and I have been testing them all pretty extensively.

We put hamster dance on all the computer lab computers and cranked up the volume to max then locked the door from the inside using a trick, so that they would need to get the facilities people to get in. It was really dumb.

In the lead developer’s GitHub, he sympathizes with Marxism including those that committed atrocities.. He apparently censors lemmy.ml with this in mind. Since it is open source though, I can trust that other instances might be better maintained. There is no way I’ll use any personal information in my signup because this all probably is going to China.

The devs hold extreme political views. They are on board with the Tiananmen Square massacre being necessary and shit like that. Like this post says though, there are plenty of instances that are totally run by normal people. Additionally, the Lemmy server code is open source, so that helps to ensure that it isn’t doing anything nefarious behind-the-scenes.

People do care if you are late though. Friends and co-workers wait for you to arrive before starting a meeting or activity, but you are now always the very late one. You are tolerated, but will be kept at arm’s-length because they know you are inconsiderate. You can be 5 minutes late to some meetings in order to feign that you are really important and your previous meetings went over because people wanted more of your time, but if you go much more than that frequently, you are just unreliable.
