How would I use traceroute? I tried "traceroute metafilter.com" which showed these 4 hops:. Source: over 1 year ago
The way it should have been handled is cortex should have just announced the new owner "the new owner is so-and-so, they begin to be in charge Friday the Xth, direct all communications to them now." Perhaps "metafilter.com" should just be retired and they start up a new site with better features (any features, you know, blocking, etc). Things are lost off the internet all the time. I greet everyone "who were you... Source: about 2 years ago

The /r/science subreddit is decent, metafilter.com is sometimes a noteworthy aggregator. I have seen a lot of inconvenient-news sorts of things show up on The Guardian, although I've heard them increasingly criticized along some axes. Of course there's the /r/covid19 subreddit here that has only the most sciencey of science news here. The /r/medicine subreddit is a good place to gauge medical industry impact. ...

A few weeks a go I posted a meme with the caption "My wife out-drinking everyone at the table-- Our unborn son:" [picture of Tom the cat in the womb]. I understand abortion is a touchy subject for some people, but it's not like I was advocating for or against abortion.

Like using lemmy.world for example. I'll search up for a linux community... Source: 10 months ago
Signing up isn't complicated, people just get confused by what "federation" means... It doesn't matter what instance (or "server" if it's easier to understand) you sign up for. I'm on lemmy.world but I post and comment on lemmy.ml and 10-15 other instances all the time. Think of instances as "copies" with different users and posts, but they all interact with each other (with a few exceptions). Source: 10 months ago
Whereas the top three on my subscribed feed are from [Games@lemmy.world](mailto:Games@lemmy.world), [gaming@lemmy.ml](mailto:gaming@lemmy.ml) and [gaming@beehaw.org](mailto:gaming@beehaw.org). My subs on lemmy are mostly related to video games, but this points out something that confuses some folks coming over from Reddit - lemmy.ml and beehaw.org both have communities named "gaming" and they are separate...
